I'm fortunate to have been able to identify an acquaintance who contacted an attorney practicing in the jurisdiction within which my matter was based, who then identified Ms. Terry as an effective advocate, who would jealously pursue my best interest. I'd highly recommend her for her honesty, knowledge of the the body of law stated herein under her profile, and her effective communication skills. Not one time did I have occasion to need to telephone her. She is deserving of every opportunity to do the same for those fortunate to enough to choose her.
