Terry Paul McCormick

TERRY MCCORMICKI graduated from the University of Florida College of Law in 1993. After graduation, I workedfor AT&T Universal Card Services in the legal department in Jacksonville, Florida. My primaryresponsibility was drafting and negotiating contracts with companies such as Microsoft and LucentTechnologies. I then worked an Assistant State Attorney in Sarasota, FL from 1997-2002. As aprosecutor, I took over one hundred cases to a jury verdict, including DUIs, domestic violence,misdemeanors, and felonies.I started my own legal practice in Sarasota after my time as a prosecutor. My practice wasdivided between criminal and family law. I defended many people accused of crimes such as DUI,domestic violence, possession or sale of controlled substances, assault, and various other misdemeanorsand felonies. As a family law practitioner, I worked on divorce matters, legal separations, pre-nuptialagreements, modification of judgments, and matters related to restraining orders.I moved with my wife and child to Astoria in late 2007 and continue to practice both criminaland family law. I believe it is important to take each case individually and to treat my clients withrespect. I continue to represent people accused of crimes, including DUII. Family law continues to bean essential part of my practice, including divorce, separation, modifications, restraining and stalkingorders.
