A father of three, Terry Magady understands firsthand the challenges of navigating the legal system on the behalf of a disabled family member. Twenty-four years ago, Terry's daughter Danielle was born with Down Syndrome, and he was thrust firsthand into a legal and medical maelstrom. Where others would see an obstacle, Terry found a passion.
He began seeking innovative solutions to complex situations, with the goal of helping his daughter live a fulfilling life. And that goal was met; his daughter is now married and living independently. Danielle was the impetus for Terry founding the Elder Law Center, and that same passion fuels his elder law practice.
