Business Owner

I called for a free consultation, because I had business start up questions and he clearly explained what I needed from an attorney and what I didn't. He was honest and thoughtful of my financial situation to let me know when I should be reaching out to an attorney and for what matters so that I woul...d not incur extra unnecessary costs. He was quick to understand what I needed and answered directly to the point. Thanks

Can't Thank Terry & Co. Enough

When I was hit with a nuisance lawsuit (for the 1st time in my life) over the sale of a business gone bad, it was Terry to the rescue. I was very stressed and he spent a generous amount of time - both with me and my SO - in unpaid consultations so I felt comfortable trusting him with the case. I am ...thankful for the work he and his staff did on my behalf. He was effective in getting the other party [top] to end a harassment suit by drawing up a counter-suit, then standing his ground. This caused [top] to accept a much smaller settlement to go away. Also, I was delighted that Terry was able to get [top] to sign an agreement disallowing [top] to attack me in the same legal manner ever again, while leaving the door open for me to initiate a suit against this odious individual, should I ever wish to do so in the future. Well done!

Efficient, responsive, helpful

I'm looking for a lawyer to help with a "business divorce" and after reading Mr. Scannell's reviews, I decided to take advantage of his free initial consult to see if he could help me. He called me right back and was extremely efficient with determining whether or not he could help me. He even threw ...in a great crumb of info to help me help myself. Seems like a good guy, and judging from his reviews, he can help with difficult situations and prevent them from "gong nuclear".

FINALLY! An Honest Lawyer.

I called Terry for a review of an Operating Agreement for an LLC. Terry could have reviewed my documents and charged me a hefty fee, for which I was prepared to pay. After listening to my situation and asking for details, he refer me to an attorney in a different state. He said that he was not one... to charge by increments of time when he did not feel this was in my best interest. Imagine that! I was impressed and will use him for my local legal needs should they occur.

Consultation with Mr. Terry Scannell

I was looking for an attorney to help me resolve a very complex business situation. Terry was terrific , he listened to everything I had to say on the phone and then asked me to come in to his office. I met with him and his assistant at his office and we went into the consultation room and I was ver...y impressed with his place of establishment, quite elegant I must say. Terry and his assistant listened to everything I had to say and made notes and presented me with several options , he was helpful, kind and extremely knowledgeable and easy to understand and very easy to talk with. I am very pleased with the law firm and the service they have provided me. I highly recommend Terry to anyone that’s looking for help in resolving their case and obtaining legal advice. On top of everything else, the information and an hour of consultation was offered to me at no cost , Thank you Terry Scannell .
