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.

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.

Professional, Dedicated, Compassionate

After applying and being denied for SSD benefits, I had the good fortune of being referred to Ms. Spence. Ms. Spence is a dedicated, professional and hardworking attorney. She is extremely knowledgeable of the SSD laws and works tirelessly for the best interest of her client. From the initial contact... to the morning of the hearing, Ms. Spence kept in touch with me every step of the way. She was very thorough and took the time to explain the process and made the experience less stressful. I am grateful and thankful to Ms. Spence and her paralegal for their dedication and professionalism to my case. I highly recommend Ms. Spence for any SSD claims. She and her office are above 5 stars. -RT

Truly outstanding SSDI attorney

I retained Ms. Spence to appeal my case after an application done on my own was summarily denied. After reviewing the outlines of my case she quickly agreed to represent me, even though she noted, as I already understood, that my case was challenging. Ms. Spence is super efficient, empathetic and h...as a wealth of knowledge about how the SSDI system operates. While I anticipated a protracted process, I was amazed when, within just six weeks of taking my case, I was fully approved for benefits. I cannot recommend her highly enough.
