EDITORIAL REVIEW

---

After winning $2 million from the FBI for wrongfully connecting an Oregon attorney to the 2004 Madrid bombings, this legendary lion warned that U.S. assumptions are getting out of hand.


Known throughout the country for his trial success and fringed leather jacket, Spence claims to have not lost a jury trial since 1969 and to have never lost a criminal trial. He steadfastly represents the Average Joe against big corporations and has come out a million-dollar winner many times over. On the criminal defense side, he represented former Philippine First Lady Imelda Marcos and won her acquittal on federal racketeering charges, and in 1993 successfully defended Randy Weaver in the Idaho federal standoff case. And he's not shy about his accomplishments: He started the Trial Lawyers College to teach others how to try and win cases and has written 15 books.

CHUCK PEKOR , Attorney/Partner
relationship: I know him personally. I am graduate of the Trial Lawyers College. (litigation) rates/fees: I don't think there is any doubt that Gerry Spence is far and away the best trial lawyer in the U.S. He is now unable to trial a civil case because the opposition in any civil case he is handling will comments: I am a graduate of Gerry Spence's 3 week Trial Lawyers College. Gerry Spence was there and participating in the training process personally throughout the program. I have also seen him "in action." . I am former Justice Dept civil trial lawyer, and former First Asst (and Acting) US Atty. I have tried over 140 jury trials, civil and criminal. Gerry Spence is unquestionably the best trial lawyer I have ever met.		service 10 expertise 10 quality 10 overall 10 recommend? yes
