If you need an attorney Terry is the one to call. I am glad I did!!!
This is a bitter sweet moment as I have had the pleasure to have Terry as my attorney for the past 4 years. I cannot say enough about Terry and his staff. He is thorough, tenacious, compassionate and very good at what he does! I was confused and at a loss as to where to turn or what to do. As I h...

Effective, caring, honest
A dispute with a sewer company had me searching on this site for an attorney. I am grateful I found Mr Terry Scannell. He spent a long time talking to me, listening and laying out my options to proceed. He did not charge me for an initial lengthy consultation and was extremely kind, helpful and patie...

Run!
Be very leery of this attorney! He took my case and purposely drug it out for months on end. When I would try to discuss this with him he was very aggressive to me to the point I didn't know what I feared more him or the person that was trying to sue me. Since this horrible situation I found a wonder...
Cynthia: I am very sorry you feel this way. What is left out is that when you came to us you were within days of having a summary judgment motion granted for lack of having a response. That means you would have lost automatically. We worked hard to get the case stabilized and won the summary judgment. You wanted us to take the rest of the case on a fixed fee. I declined. Again, sorry you are still so upset a year after this all happened. I am very glad you found a lawyer you like to work with. Best to you.

Hung up on me, during phone consultation
I was excited to get a call but, when I told Mr. Scannell that my home was an Original 2008 COUNTRYWIDE LOAN, he chose not to speak with me any further, and hung up.
I am sorry that you felt I did not pay enough attention to you in your call. I remember this call a bit differently but again I am sorry you had a negative experience when seeking my help. If you want to call me and take this off line please do. Sometimes in loan situations which are over a decade old it is very hard to not be barred by the statute of limitations. Terry
