This attorney was amazing through the entire process. He let me know where I stood and gave me great options. Terry is very knowledgeable and is currently pursuing the end of my case as a contempt of court against my ex spouse still going on and he believes that we’re going to have a very nice Outcome.

Prigmore Law Office has been amazing to work with. I didn't know what to expect when I 1st filed for divorce. They were able to explain everything to me, gave me some paperwork to read to understand more about child custody and divorce and the next day I came back and retained them as my attorney. They have helped me every step of the way, no matter what we were up against with Ex husbands atty or it being drawn out by my Ex husband and his atty, Even after divorce was done they have given me advice and helped me out, I am forever grateful for Prigmore Law Office.

My husband and I can finally relax after almost a decade. Terry and Karen never stopped working to help us. We will be forever grateful for making our family 100%. We have never seen anyone with as much fight and will for a child as we have. From our children- "we cannot ever repay you for helping our parents. They spent more time on this than work, thank you for listening. Attorneys don't usually hear what kids have to say. We are finally under one roof" - Sincerly, All 6 O'Dell kids!

Consulted with the attorney regarding a family law/medical debt issue and was highly impressed by his knowledge, professionalism, as well as his warm and compassionate demeanor. I highly recommend Mr. Prigmore if you are in need of an experienced and caring family law attorney.

Our experience with Mr. Prigmore far and away exceeded our expectations. After learning that my husband was deploying with the army, we knew we would have to prepare a will and POA, and had been trying to figure out how we were going to fit that into our budget. Mr. Prigmore, in support of my husband's service, graciously offered to waive our cost. He was clear and concise in helping us understand what the documents entail, and treated us like family. We are so glad to be working with him!

 
Child Custody

Hired Attorney

My experience with Terence Prigmore was exceedingly positive. My custody / child support case went on for years as a result of the opposing side. My emotions ran the spectrum from elation to anger and back again many times during the case; yet Terence had a very calm demeanor, and was able to help me see the reality of the situations. He grew from being "my lawyer" to a trustworthy friend, who spoke with me more like a family member.

Terry and his crew are great to deal with. I would recommend them to anyone that needs legal assistance. They are very understanding and want to help. Terry is very easy to talk to and does not have a large ego like so many lawyers. I would / will use again.

Terry is filled with knowledge and common sense. He takes time to answer your questions, explain options and their possible outcomes, and gets to know each case individually. Staff stays on top of communication which seemed to help get things finalized in a timely manner.

If this is your only option, go at it alone. Very disappointed. Terrance did not communicate effectively, took months to get anything going. Very disrespectful staff and not friendly. It seems as if this one is here for the money now and not for you.

It is solely the responsibility of lawyers and law firms to ensure that any information they provide complies with all applicable laws and rules of professional conduct.

Lawyers.com Client Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.

The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.

Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.

Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page

Martindale Peer Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.

The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.

What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*

• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.

• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.

• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.

Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.

Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.

For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings™, please visit our Ratings Page on Martindale.com and our Frequently Asked Questions

Avvo Client Reviews

Ratings and reviews are feedback from people who have either consulted an attorney about an issue (but may not have hired the attorney) or people who hired an attorney as a current or former client and provided their feedback to our sister site, Avvo.com.
