Miracle worker

I hired Mr. Wallace and he did not fail me. He got me a compromise for 40 hours of community service and traffic school. And with it completed, the second court appearance. He dropped my 33+ speeding ticket down from a class A misdemeanor to a petty offense. And my street racing ticket (class A mis...demeanor) completely revoked. I ended up pleading guilty to a 25+ speed limit PETTY offense. It was truly a miracle case and ended very well thanks to his work. I’d highly recommend Mr. Wallace. Tho maybe not the friendliest he has your best interest at hand so when he tells you what to do you do it. He absolutely knows what he’s doing.

DUI dismissed

Terry was referred to me by a work friend. Charged with a DUI in which this would not of been my first. Terry is a straight shooter. Informed me of what might or could happen. Very grateful he got charges dismissed. Has a great knowledge of the courthouse and the people there. A huge plus. Highly rec...ommended

Terrance Wallace, an attorney who really knows the law

Terrance Wallace is a very upfront honest lawyer who knows the law and has 30 years of experience with the justice system, so I was very confident to have him represent me and help me out. Terry also alleviated the stress from what I had to accomplish for court by helping me find places to do communi...ty service and sending me links to traffic safety websites, while also answering any questions that I had for him or with my case. Thank you again Terry

Best lawyer

I always go to Terry and he is amazing. I use him for traffic cases and my dad used him for two dui cases which he won both for my father. Definitely gets the job done and is so understanding.

Great lawyer

I really liked Terry as my lawyer. What I thought was going to be a long and hard case, he helped me be quick and easy. I think and feel Terry had my best interest with my case and I am grateful with the ruling. And also he work with me with the payment.
