The Best Attorney Ever!

I am so grateful that Attorney Gail Spence agreed to work on my case after the failed attempts I encountered with another firm. She is extremely knowledgeable, and was very sensitive and sympathetic to my situation. She provided a "no surprises” process where I was given all of my case progress as so...on as it was available. Attorney Spence and her office staff are always courteous and responsive; I could not ask for more. Attorney Spence is the best attorney I’ve ever had the pleasure of working with. Thanks a million!

Excellence! Quick results!

am incredibly grateful to have had Ms. Spence work on my brother's SSD case. I am also an attorney and can recognize excellence when I see it. I saw it with her. I initially went to the SS website to get other benefits for my brother and sought Ms. Spence out for the SSD benefits. Through some s...ignificant error on my part, I put in an application for SSD which compromised my brother's application. He was denied. I was crestfallen. Ms. Spence continued to represent my brother and somehow repaired the damage I did. She turned the entire situation around. My brother won the case and received his benefits in a matter of months. She's incredible. Ms. Spence is professional, compassionate, smart, and thorough. She explains what's going on without being condescending. She has the patience of Job and it was often demonstrated in her interactions with me as she represented my brother. She and her paralegals were a pleasure to work with as they made a very difficult time for me, tolerable. I highly recommend her.

Excellent

Gale Spence and Team have exceeded our expectations and truly lived up to all the positive reviews online, from her returning phone calls, answering all our questions, patiently explaining the process, having compassion and understanding to our families situation. Her office made sure that our case ...was a solid one before committing to take our case as to not waste our time or there’s. We have shopped around for other lawyers prior and after the first phone call we would already receive there agreement via email. Where as Gale Spence and team made sure that we had all the proper documentation to back up the case first just to make sure that ours was a viable one as to not waste everyone’s time. We were successful in our case in a timely manner.

Superb

Ms. Spence is a professional, empathetic, knowledgeable and a very intelligent attorney. Ms. Spence and her team were extremely accommodating throughout the complicated process of obtaining a fully favorable decision for my SSDI benefits. I would highly and without a hesitation recommend Ms. Spence... to anyone looking to hire a SSD esq.
