I am representative of the “bookends “ of David’s highly successful practice. First engaged him 23 years ago and again recently for same offense. He shoulders the anxiety for you, knows the territory, and keeps you on the right judicial track . When in trouble, David is your best bet. He is well ...written past president of his specialty group and is kind to rescue dogs! I recommend him without reserve for your defense needs.

Simply the best

David Terry took on a very high profile case for my family, he is very aggressive, and compassionate in a court room for his client, he worked non stop for weeks preparing and getting this case ready for battle. His knowledge of the law and the court room is impeccable, he got a full acquittal for ou...r case. We are forever grateful.

Excellent Communication, Swift Resolve, Complete Satisfaction

We hired David Terry to handle a case for my son. My son was driving through Oregon on his way to school in Seattle. Every step of the way, we were kept fully informed of the progress of the case. Mr. Terry saw to it that my son did not have to miss the first 3 days of school appearing in court. Davi...d Terry was able to get the entire case dismissed! He is an exceptional attorney that I highly endorse and recommend.

Excellent Defense Attorney

Excellent defense attorney. I would give David Terry my strongest recommendation. I found David to be experienced and informed about the law, the agencies, resources and people he needs to deal with in finding the right solution. I found him to be honest and trustworthy, tough but equally compass...ionate as situation dictated. He was personally involved and committed to solving our issues which he did with a dismissal in a very tough situation. Communication was continual and straight forward. And David is backed by an equally committed, involved and caring office staff. David and his office staff will always be close friends.

"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."
