Terrells LLP was founded by Roger Terrell in 1988 and over the years has created reputable relations by supporting Peterborough’s local community through life’s ups and downs.
Our experienced and accomplished solicitors provide professional, efficient, and personalised legal support, always going the extra mile to deliver the best possible outcome. Whatever legal challenge you face, we are here to offer expert guidance with care and professionalism to you, your business and your family.
Whilst we offer a wide range of legal services, we are recognised across the country for our specialised work in Paternity Fraud.
It is with deep sadness that we acknowledge the passing of our colleague, mentor, and dear friend, Roger Terrell.
Roger was more than the founding partner, he was the heart and soul. A solicitor of rare calibre, Roger went on to build a career defined by integrity and an unwavering commitment to justice. In founding the firm in 1988, Roger not only created a space for legal excellence, but also a workplace built on commitment, professionalism, and community. Several solicitors in Peterborough were trained by him and owe their career to his guidance and generosity in nurturing and supporting them.
Throughout his distinguished career, Roger championed the values that continue to shape our firm. Whether representing clients in high-profile litigation, supporting families through life-changing moments, or standing beside athletes in international tribunals, Roger brought unmatched skill, a sharp intellect, and a human touch to everything he did. He was particularly known for his work in paternity fraud, sports law, and family law fields in which he not only excelled but made a lasting impact.
Roger’s influence extended far beyond the courtroom. A former Chairman and Vice Chairman of Peterborough United Football Club, a regular voice in the Peterborough Evening Telegraph, and a familiar presence on local media, Roger was an active and beloved member of the Peterborough community and beyond.
For those of us who had the privilege of working alongside him, Roger was something more. He was a mentor who gave generously of his time and experience. A leader who set the standard through his own excellence, never asking of others what he wasn’t prepared to do himself. A friend who brought warmth and humour into the busiest of days. Roger led with principle, inspired by example, and cared for everyone around him.
Our thoughts are with Roger’s family, especially his wife and children, during this difficult time. We will miss him more than words can express but we will carry his values with us, always.
Roger, you are not only greatly respected by all who knew you, you will be greatly missed. Thank you, Roger for everything.
The legacy of Roger Terrell will to live on as FMT continues to deliver expert legal services across a broad range of areas. We remain committed to upholding and championing the standard of excellence that Roger was so well known for.
