Terry W. Posey, Esq., attorney at law
Meet your lawyer

Before he was your lawyer, he wore the badge.

Terry W. Posey spent 19 years as a Dayton Police officer and sergeant, serving in patrol, detective, and vice assignments, and earned the department's Medal of Valor along the way. He has stood at the scene of the crash and seen firsthand how insurance companies and government systems decide what a person's suffering is worth.

For more than 30 years since, he has spent his career fighting for individuals, not corporations or institutions. Over 1,000 cases later, his approach hasn't changed: you can always reach a lawyer who knows your case, your calls get returned, and your options are explained in plain language.
