Gerald L. Spence's Lawyer Endorsements
"How can possibly the greatest living trial lawyer, Gerry Spence, get anything less than a 10.0 AVVO rating? Gerry correctly emphasizes that to be great people and great lawyers, we must discover ourselves, warts and all, be fully real, and know and embrace our pain before sending it on its way, lest the pain smother us. Deeply thanking and bowing to my teacher Gerry Spence."
"Gerry Spence is the reason I went to law school. How to Argue and Win Every Time is a great book for anyone considering a career as an attorney."
"I endorse this lawyer. Of course I do. He is the greatest living lawyer on earth. He's probably the greatest among the many dead lawyers, too. I hope he lives another 100 years so other young lawyers have the opportunity to learn from him. I notice he has a 9.2 rating. Really? On your 10-point scale, this man is a 100."
"I endorse this lawyer."

He has taught Trial Practice to the aspiring Trial Lawyers in America and taught them to get better each day. His Trial Lawyer's College is an example of that.

He is a remarkable man and I feel lucky to count him as a friend."
