Meet the Attorney

Terrica Odum

Founder & Lead Counsel

Terrica Odum graduated with Honors from Florida State University where she received a Bachelor of Science degree in Family and Child Sciences with a minor in Psychology. During this time, Attorney Odum gained vital experience working as a victim/witness advocate in the state attorney's office in Tallahassee, Florida. Attorney Odum also supervised court ordered visitations between parents and children at the Parent Visitation Center in Tallahassee, where she also taught a parenting class.

Attorney Odum obtained her Juris Doctorate degree from Howard University School of Law in Washington, DC where she concentrated her course-work in Family Law and Children's Advocacy.

Even the most uncomplicated and routine legal matters for an attorney can be extremely sensitive to the client. These matters can be emotionally upsetting and in many cases emotionally devastating. It is likely that you are seeking an attorney who will take the time to discuss with you the intricacies of your case and your concerns about your case. You are also interested in an attorney who will give your case her individual attention. You deserve an attorney who knows and understands the law and is capable of aggressively litigating your case in court. Attorney Odum can meet those expectations.
