Margaret Terry, in her 40th year of service to Legal Aid, is retiring.
Click here to RSVP for the retirement party.
After finishing law school in 1970, Margaret joined Volunteers in Service to America (VISTA) and was sent to Cleveland. During her second year with VISTA, she was placed at The Legal Aid Society of Cleveland working in the Juvenile Unit before being hired permanently in January 1973. By 1979, Ms. Terry was handling a variety of Legal Aid cases, which allowed her to develop knowledge in a variety of aspects of the law. Today, Ms. Terry is a supervising attorney for Legal Aid’s Intake Unit. Now in her 40th year of service at Legal Aid, Ms. Terry will retire in May 2012.
When Ms. Terry considers her experiences at Legal Aid, she highlights the “influence the mere presence of an attorney can have on a person facing a difficult situation.” Click here to read more about Ms. Terry’s career.
Please join us in congratulating Margaret on May 23!
