The best

Hands down the best traffic attorney in will county!! Always responsive no matter what time or day , extremely knowable and always gets the job done ! I recently got into an accident and got ticketed . I hired Terry to help me out . He did more than that … He got the case dropped !! He also helped... my son at 16 save his license from a speeding ticket. Any friends or family that ever ask 100% always refer Terry.

Excellent Service

I was referred to Terry Wallace after my accident which turned out to be a very good thing. I wanted the accident stricken off my record to help decrease the chance of an insurance rate hike. I was extremely anxious and Terry helped calm my fears. Terry was very supportive and attentive which was ...greatly appreciated. Terry kindly took care of everything understanding my needs. I’m so glad I found Terry and will hopefully never need him again, but if I do, I won’t hesitate to call him.

Terry Wallace is an awesome attorney!

I can't thank Terry Wallace enough for everything he has done to get my teenage son out of the trouble he had with tickets. I wasn't sure if we needed an attorney at first and did not realize how serious the tickets were that he received. I called Terry to discuss the situation and he provided a free... consultation right away to explain everything to us and detailed what he could do to help. Terry was able to get him out of one excessive speeding ticket with supervision. He then was able to get two tickets from a head on collision to be dismissed. There was a previous ticket that I told my son to plead guilty to and Terry is looking into getting that one removed from my son's record. That was the first ticket my son ever received, and I thought it was a minor offense. We should have called Terry first for that one because it would have kept it off his record from the start and possibly have prevented these last three tickets. If you or someone you know ever get a ticket, I highly recommend contacting Terry right away. He is a great attorney and was extremely helpful to my son and both of his parents.

A great lawyer to have on your side

Terry first helped me with a speeding ticket and soon after, he also helped with an accident case which he got both dismissed. Terry is very honest with what he’ll do to get you out of the situation you’re in, only if you cooperate with him and whatever terms/advice he gives you. He’s also very reaso...nable when it comes to prices especially for the long run. If anything else happened to me, he’s the first person I would hire again.

Good Experience

My son had an accident while still on permit, he had received 2 tickets. We decided to hire a lawyer and we hired Terry who had a lot of knowledge in this area and had us completely prepared ahead of our court date. I was very confident having Terry as our lawyer and our case was dismissed. I would d...efinitely recommend Terry Wallace.
