dependable, honorable, sincere

Spencer Todd with out a doubt is a justice for all stand up guy. "Courage is doing what's right regardless of the consequences", and that best explains Mr. Todd's demeanor. I was able to seek him out before court and explain the unfortunate circumstances surrounding my finances incarceration. He was ...straight up with the facts and questioned important facts. Once the facts where aligned, he spoke up for what was just and fair and never let any barriers shake him, in fact he rose to each obstacle with a professional mind set and was very poised and confident. It is safe to say his intelligence speaks aloud, unafraid of whom is listening and his determination is admirable to say the least. I will call on him again and highly recommend him to represent you, especially if you are in need of a trustworthy guy on your side.

Accidental & Serious Mistake

It was late in the game when we met Spencer Todd. My son had a serious crime to defend. Spencer did an excellent job gathering information, speaking to the DA, and keeping us in the loop of information. My son and I believe that without Spencer's professionalism, my son may have had a much harsher... outcome. I would personally recommend Spencer Todd.to anyone in need of a Pit Bull to represent you.

Highly Recommend; Very Sincere

Spencer represented me in a criminal case recently and I wanted to post concerning my positive experience working with him. From the beginning Spencer was always punctual and professional. He deserves special commendation for being available at almost anytime. He was always very quick to respond t...o my questions and kept me well informed of what he and the courts were doing involving my case. I would highly recommend Spencer to anyone because he handled my situation with encouraging diligence and care; Spencer also treated me sincere respect regardless of my circumstance.

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"In four short years Spencer has established himself as a most competent young lawyer. Judges speak highly of his skills, preparedness, and professionalism. We have consulted on several matters and the give and take is a two way street. He demonstrates a quiet confidence and comes to court fully prepared. His positions are well researched and his memos supported by persuasive authority. Most importantly he is ready to try cases that can not be settled. I completely endorse this lawyer."
