Terry Scannell

I’m a first timer home buyer and followed some advice that I might need a real estate attorney. I called around and Terry was the only person to say that I might not need a lawyer to close a residential home sale in oregon. There are risks and Terry explained those but for the vast majority of transa...ctions where each party had a real estate agent and it is a conventional loan in general lawyers are not needed. Terry took half an hour putting me at ease about my situation. At least 3 other firms quoted me 1500 or more without hesitation. Will 100% utilize Terry’s services if and when I actually need a lawyer and would 100% recommend him to anyone in need as well.

I find myself in a pickle with my HOA. They disapproved a planter that I would like to have in my front yard. I was hoping to find an easy, inexpensive way to counter the rejection of my plan. Terry was very direct in telling me that this matter could get very expensive very quickly. He explain...ed everything clearly, and shared his experience regarding litigation with HOAs. I will take his advice as I proceed with my plans, and should I find myself in need of further counsel I will not hesitate to contact Mr. Scannell.

We've 5 acres in rural Clackamas County & became embroiled in a complicated property dispute. We were fortunate to be referred to Terry Scannell whom we then retained. Terry possesses a strategic legal intellect, is candid when giving assessments (no "breadcrumbing"), is tenaciously adept on his... feet & has a professional reputation as a fierce no-nonsense advocate for his clients. Our outcome? Terry negotiated an almost unbelievable result for us and then in turn, he continued to work with us. To this day, he's remained our legal confidante & is a stellar human being.
