The best disability attorney

We had an amazing experience with this attorney. After my husband’s disability case was denied, Ms. Spence immediately filed an appeal and worked hard to expedite everything. Thanks to her dedication and knowledge, his case was approved in just one week. She was professional, responsive, and knew exa...ctly what to do every step of the way. During a very stressful time, she gave us confidence and peace of mind. We are incredibly grateful for all her hard work and highly recommend her to anyone . She is the best . She truly cares about her clients.

Excellent Service

I was very happy dealing with Ms. Spence and her effort to win my case. She made everything very easy to understand and got me the help I needed in a timely manner. My family is finally at ease knowing I won my case. I would highly recommend Ms. Spence to anyone in need of assistance with SSDI.

Terrific Attorney

It was a pleasure working with Ms Spence. She filed all the necessary paperwork and stayed on top of Social Security until my claim was finalized. Highly recommended!

The Best Disability Attorney in NJ

Ms. Spence recently handled the disability case for my ex wife. In a word, she is "elite" and the best at what she does. She has no peers. If you need a disability attorney in NJ she is the only person to hire. Her knowledge, guidance, and follow through are unparalleled, and you would be making a... mistake to go with anyone else!

Law Office of Gail A Spence Saved My Life

I was in crisis when I contacted the Law Office of Gail A. Spence. I was represented by a company, assigned by my former employer. They dropped the ball. I was homeless, in and out of the hospital and my case was denied at least twice. Ms. Spence took control of the situation. Her diligence, legal ex...pertise and professionalism saved the day. She knows the Social Security Disability law – inside and out. My doctors would not comply with submitting my medical records, I was overwhelmed and unsure of the future, but every step of the way Ms. Spence and her team were there to reassure me and do the necessary work. She won my case and the money was life-altering. It helped me to get myself together. She really saved my life. I am grateful for Ms. Spence’s expertise, the attention to detail and most of all for Ms. Spence’s respectful attitude. I understood that I created some of the problems with my case. There was no judgment, just straight helpful advice. Thank you to the Law Office of Gail A. Spence. You made a difference in my life.
