I have been a successful, aggressive trial attorney in all the counties of southern oregon for over thirty years. I have successfully handled many high-profile cases including the Tiller Arson Fires, the First Strike Environmental Firefighters case and, recently, a complete acquittal of all charges in the Amos Manslaughter case.
Many folks remember the tragic case of the toddler who died in a hot car incident here in Roseburg. Although her mother was arrested and charged with Manslaughter, we were able to convince the DA's office to dismiss all charges and she got her LIFE back!
I would strongly urge anyone facing serious criminal charges to do their homework,check around and inquire of other lawyers throughout southern oregon regarding my credentials and track record to learn more about what we bring to the table.

David Terry was hired by my boyfriend for a criminal negligent homicide case. My boyfriend was expected to go to jail for 30 days, which was part of the plea deal made with the DA. My boyfriend ended up not having to go to jail at all. David is very intelligent, he knows the court room and law like t...

Eleven months ago, we found ourselves in the middle of an absolute nightmare when our son was falsely accused of a crime that he did not commit; he was the victim. David Terry walked us through every step of the legal process, he communicated extensively with us, and he advocated for our son every st...
Oh, my goodness, Kristy, THANK YOU! It has been a high point in my professional life of 40+ years to have the honor of meeting, representing and triumphing with your family against baseless, undeserved and unjust charges!!! This case is a painful, but classic example of what happens when forces beyond one’s control: lying witnesses, social media, inappropriate politicization and a flawed police investigation, combine to rob an innocent person of their reputation, their chosen path in life and the very fabric of their life. Indeed, of ALL your lives!!! INNOCENT PEOPLE DO GET CHARGED WITH CRIMES THEY DID NOT COMMIT! ! !

We are very grateful for Mr. Terry's expertise concerning our young adult son back in the Fall of 2021. He understands the law and puts forth great effort for the best results for his client(s). I might add that our son understands the law better too. Simply put; David Terry fights ! Thank you ...

I was looking at a possible measure 11 crime. After talking with David and looking at all the evidence David was able to get me a much better outcome. David was very straight with me and I knew where we stood the whole time. If your in trouble he's by far your best option. Thank you David for never...

I can’t speak highly enough about Mr. Terry and his staff. Being arrested is an unbelievably stressful event especially when you’re innocent. In dealing with his office staff I was always made to feel comfortable and attended to without ever a feeling of judgment, quite the opposite I was always made...
"David Terry is a great trial lawyer. My experiences over 37 years as a trial lawyer have convinced me that virtually any lawyer who observes David trying a case to a jury becomes a better trial lawyer as a result. He is that good!!!"
"I have known David as a friend and a colleague for more than thirty years. He has grown to become one of the preeminent criminal defense lawyers in southern Oregon. He is creative and relentless in his representations. I endorse him without reservation."
"When I was taking on representation of a client in a part of Oregon with which I was unfamiliar, I sought out the counsel of Mr Terry. I soon learned why Mr Terry is widely respected by his colleagues in the criminal defense bar. Mr Terry is knowledgeable about the law and cares deeply for his clients. Mr Terry took time out of his busy schedule and generously offered me assistance. I am proud to be in the same profession as Mr Terry, and will gladly refer clients to him when the opportunity arises."
"I endorse this lawyer's work. David and I have known each other professionally for over a decade. My practice is criminal defense as well. Whenever I have a client in need of professional help in Roseburg, David Terry is ALWAYS at the top of the list. I respect his work and trial skills."
