Gail A Spence: Unicorn, Champion, Superhero, Justice Gladiator!

A Unicorn is what I’ve often called Ms. Spence and her team during consultations regarding our case. However, I have come to realize that this term does not adequately define attorney Gail Spence and her team and would like to use this space to set the record straight. Ms. Spence is a real-life sup...er hero. She and her team are champions of the underserved and overlooked; a voice for those who have none and fierce advocate for justice. She saved a life in my situation, literally. If it wasn’t for her, all would have been lost. Overcoming seemingly insurmountable obstacles, she never wavered or forsaken us. I am forever grateful for the opportunity to have Ms. Spence represent us. I cannot recommend highly enough, Ms. Gail A. Spence and her team. Although I know she had other cases, she ALWAYS made time for us, answering any questions, and taking the time to truly explain what was happening step by step as the case progressed. I want to thank Ms. Gail A. Spence and her team again for their hard work, persistence and fortitude in seeing this case through.

BEST DISABILITY ATTORNEY IN NJ

After years of great health and hard work, my husband suffered a sudden and serious medical issue, which unexpectedly left him unable to work. Although we were hesitant to contact a disability attorney from a Google search, after reading her many great online reviews, my husband and I decided to cont...act Ms. Spence. From the very first phone call we knew we were exactly where we needed to be. Her precise knowledge, expertise and professionalism were evident from the very start, and they were unquestionably what got us seamlessly and successfully through the entire process. She could not have been more gracious, helpful and patient the whole way through. She painstakingly explained every detail of what was expected of us and how to go about carrying it out. She continually kept us apprised of what was going on at every turn. And she always advised us of where she thought things were headed. And amazingly she nailed it every time! We are so very grateful to have worked with Ms. Spence. Her hard work and dedication were invaluable to us. At all times she truly made us feel as though my husband was her only client. We can not say enough good things about our experience in working with Ms. Spence, and we would not hesitate for a second to recommend her to even our closest friends and family!

Gail A Spence is beyond excellence!

I had the pleasure of being represented by Gail A. Spence at my Social Security Disability Hearing. Ms. Spence was intelligent, experienced, and very knowledgeable in the handling of my claim. After determining that my case was viable, she got the whole process going immediately. It was such a reli...ef after my claim being denied when I filed on my own. Ms. Spence was impressive as she seemed to know the SSD system inside and out and used that knowledge to help easily navigate my claim. She was compassionate, caring, and took all the time I needed to answer questions I had and explain the whole process. If I needed to get in contact with her she was always available during business hours. She won my case for me and I will be forever grateful. Ms. Spence is the reason I can finally rest well at night! I wholeheartedly recommend Gail A. Spence.

Excellent Attorney

Ms. Spence is very knowledgeable. I was denied disability and had a terrible experience until I started working with Ms. Spence. She worked quickly to get the process on the right track and I was approved after my first hearing. She is an excellent attorney that keeps you well informed through eve...ry step.
