I have 2 wonderful children.  I enjoy going to my ranch(ette), playing golf and traveling when I have time.  I am a long-time U.T. Sports Fan, Dallas Cowboys Fan and San Antonio Spurs Fan.

I believe in treating my clients as intelligent equals in a joint venture to solve their problems and improve their lives.  This means telling you what you need to know, not what I think you want to hear.  It also means explaining law and procedure to you without talking down to you.. I believe in providing more value to my clients than they expect or request.  This starts with being accessible and responsive to client needs.  It goes beyond diligent preparation and prompt delivery of services. It is the result of taking a real human interest in my clients.. I believe the best lawyers genuinely delight in solving their clients problems and in helping their clients achieve their goals.. I grew up in Houston and obtained my undergraduate degree from Texas A&M University, where I majored in political science.  I graduated with honors from the Valparaiso University School of Law in 1999.  While in law school, I was privileged to clerk at Harper & Rogers, P.C., a premier criminal defense firm in Northwest Indiana.  I settled in Austin after law school and worked for a small firm for two years before launching my own practice at the end of 2001..

Since 1999, I’ve maintained membership in the National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers, the Texas Criminal Defense Lawyers Association, and the Austin Criminal Defense Lawyers Association.  I am also a member of the Austin and Williamson County Bar Associations.. In addition to my law license, which allows me to practice in all state courts in Texas, I am also admitted to practice in the Federal Courts in the Western District of Texas, the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit, and the United States Supreme Court.

I became a lawyer in 1998 and began my legal career as an Assistant Attorney General in 1999 in the Habeas Corpus Division.  In 2004, I left the AG's office and went into private practice.  I am a founding member of Terry & Kelly, PLLC and concentrate on personal injury cases because I am sick and tired of insurance companies treating people badly and choosing profits over people.
