I love cats, art and my children. Not necessarily in that order, (although now that all of my children/step-children are teenagers it depends what day you ask me!) It is therefore probably no surprise that my passions, (aside from my law firm), are animal welfare, art and education. I volunteer for a local all-volunteer cat rescue, I am on the board of Directors of a non-profit art gallery, and I am one of the parent representatives on the School Organizational Team (S.O.T.) of one of my son’s schools for the second year in a row. I believe it is my dedication to my family and local community that have helped make me a good lawyer. I was born and educated in England. I was the first member of my family to attend university and I worked as a barmaid throughout college and Law School to help support myself. I graduated from the University of East Anglia with a Bachelor’s Degree in Law in 1994. I then attended Nottingham Law School before completing a two year training contract with National Law firm Shoosmiths Solicitors. At the time it was incredibly difficult to find a training contract and I took a job working in the mail room at Shoosmiths while I continued to apply for training contracts. I was told in no uncertain terms that this summer job would NOT lead to a training contract but I have always been stubborn, (as my father will tell you!) I was given a training contract after a few months and I spent six months in each of the four main departments and gained experience in Corporate Law, Commercial Litigation, Commercial Property and Personal Injury. I was admitted to the roll and became a Solicitor, (the English equivalent of an attorney), in 1997. I worked as an Assistant Solicitor in a small law firm called Cordell & Co. specializing in Personal Injury, from September 1997 through March 2001. I handled approximately 350 cases at any one time, supervised junior members of staff and I helped set up policies and procedures to streamline the firm. In March 2001, I founded Fishers Solicitors, (my maiden name is Fisher), a firm committed exclusively to handling personal injury cases arising out of motor vehicle accidents. As the sole Director and Shareholder, I helped grow the firm to over 50 members of staff. In 2002, I moved to Las Vegas, although I maintained my interest in Fishers Solicitors until it closed in 2012.. I started Terry Law Group, PC ("TLG") in 2013 We handle all types of injury cases including motor vehicle accidents, pedestrian accidents, animal bites, product liability, boating accidents, elder abuse, wrongful death, dental malpractice, food poisoning, slip and fall, assault and battery, negligent security, bed bug bites and mold or other habitability cases. I am as passionate about getting justice and fair compensation for my clients as I am about every other aspect of my life. I have some understanding of what it is like to be injured, (I suffered a compound fracture of my tibia in an accident which required two surgeries over two years). I have been practicing law for 20 years and I am dedicated to listening to my clients’ needs, providing honest, straightforward advice and walking my clients through the difficult and often lengthy process after an accident so they do not feel alone. TLG – it’s as close to TLC as I could make it.
