Fighting for the People | Gerry Spence | TEDxJacksonHole 

Thank you Atty. Gerry Spence for defending the Marcos Family during the trial in New York.

For everyone who knows this man and his life work, a certain sense of pride, enlightenment, compassion, truth, freedom and courage come about . May this group spread the thoughtfulness this mentor has brought into our know how. Rest easy sir! You’re one of a kind!

What I admire most about Gerry Spence is his willingness to tell the jury/audience what is true for him. For 30 years I have been training people to transform stage fright and fear of public speaking. For most of those years, I have read a couple pages from Gerry's book "How to Argue and Win Every Time" out loud to my classes. He is willing to share his fear with listeners. And that authenticity is what the magic that transforms fear into excitement to share ideas, insights and expertise! Gerry is my hero.

Respect! The greatest story teller in our lifetime.

One of the great lawyer who defended our beloved first lady ... 350 T documents with 95 witnesses against first lady but nothing even one stand to prove that our first lady is a thief ... because he defended a real good woman and no one can turn a good woman down ...

True respect for this special person, where many of us have lost complete trust in lawyers and subsequently the justice system. He is the hope many of us have lost when dragged into the justice system , God bless you . Legend !!

most likeable attorney in American history

One of the last and best trial lawyers we all will ever see again.

WOW. A tiny happy tear rolled down the corner of my eye as I was laying sideways watching him speak with such conviction. Wow. This man has touched my heart.

What a great speaker, personality, intellect. Love this man. Someone wrote underneath, he has a founder's intellect. He has that vision that many people lack.

While listening to Atty.Gerry Spence, I remember how he defended our own Mdm.Imelda Marcos in New York. But it's so sad that the truth didn't reach our people' so that even to these days,Marcos' children and grandchildren are still being 'persecuted' . Truth shall prevail in God's time. Thank you sir..you are one of a kind, God bless you...!!!

Love this man. Truly one of the best ever. Brilliant, fun, smart as a whip. May he live another 20-30 years.

I remember reading a few of his books a while ago. Great speaker, lawyer and author. And a true humanitarian.

Meet the greatest American soul of the 20th century.

This is really touching. Hands down Mr Spence.

"Making little things BIG, and making BIG things little". We are living that today, on a daily basis.

And this ladies and gentlemen, is the schooling I received as a young girl. Bravo Gerry!

I love listening to Mr Gerry Spence. Such wise loving heart.

I could say that this is the great parable of gerry spence. Such a wonderful story.

I was fortunate enough to attend The Gerry Spence Trial Lawyers College in 1999. I cannot say enough good about the difference this man made in my life and the lives of countless others. He is also a prolific author and his books are well worth checking out.

Thanks for your hard work and dedication . The best of the best.

Magnificent! What a tremendous orator he is. What a great and inspiring story! Thank you so much for sharing.

Picked up one of Gerry's books at a local book store and have been a fan ever since .

What a great man💞🎯🌎

I’ve been asked if given a chance to meet a famous person either living or dead. Who would I pick My choice would be Mr Spence. First choice every time. Mr Spence thank you for all you have done to keep justice

Pres.Marcos was acquitted because of this lawyer..Pres.Marcos said..."Truth will set me free "

A passionate and talented lawyer. Thank you Gerry Spence!

I love Gerry Spence. He is the best attorney ever. Great guy. ❤️

Gerry never disappoints. If you haven't read his book (Winning Your Case) already, I highly recommend it-lawyer or nonlawyer alike.

One of the TRUE great human beings

That is true restitution, thank you sir for doing the right thing.

Respect: Your words make imprints on the mind. Janine Manatis, a friend of yours, recorded your words and remembered them well. So good to see you here, so that I may hear what she heard. Much Love.

Fair balls to you Gerry, for having the bottle to say what you said,it takes courage. The unexamined life is not worth living,the examined life is painful.....

Let us all listen to your wisdom, Mr. Spence. You've shared what matters most. Thank you.

Thank you Gerry for your courage and honesty. I wish you would be at my side during my Employment Tribunal. Pray for justice.

I LOVE YOU GERRY SPENCE SO MUCH!!!! THANK YOU SIR!!!

Bravo, Gerry.

Incredible defence lawyer. God bless U

Beautiful talk

Thank u Gerry Spence

He is an American hero. He is one of my hero’s. His books and his story telling may frankly be the best I’ve ever heard.

Tearful story. I was crying listening the narrative about the old man.

I respect you sir. Thanks be to God there was you!

Brilliant.

Thank you so very much

The greatest attny of all times in so many ways. Unfortunately, there no attys around like you. May the lord bless you.

Amazing speaker.

Love Jerry Spence

Enjoyed his presentment of the entire story because he knows that Justice is a pagan goddess named justia I digress saw an interview with him on RU-vid today was so impressed and then realised that I had watched it a interview a month ago and I commented on that video as to what I would like to find a lawyer for and a month later I got a thumbs up using microphone no punctuation been studying law for 6 years I respect the courts that is to say JUST the court I don't know if this man is still around but if he was and if he gets to read this comment he will understand God bless

This is history thank you

A remarkable man.

Well Done Lisa!

Greatest lawyer

May God Bless You Sir 🙏

Amazing lawyer: Attorney Gerry Spence 👏 Thank you, you’re a great & brilliant defense lawyer of former First Lady of the PHILIPPINES 🇵🇭 God bless 👏

Because of Gerry Spence I took on and continued my legal battle without a lawyer and against a lawyer. Winning my case over false accusations With a Little Help from the lawyer at the end

Talk about "Doing good as you pass by"

Such authenticity. No substitute for a man like him. Could of been an extraordinary actor. He's telling the truth. Decades ago I got crushed by an impaired car driver. For a decade the insurance company said I was faking. I found out at trial that their defence medical found I had irreversible nerve damage which left me in grinding. Intractable and excrutiatingly pain. At trial, the insurance company gave my lawyer a lot of money and he said you know what I think you're faking, the judge is laughing at u and we should settle for sixty thousand. I later found that medical report prepared for the insurance company by the defense orthopedic surgeon, and it found found that I had irreversible nerve damage. Some times the worst part of an accident is that u survived. 3 Decades post accident, Oxycontin, hydromorphone and a prayer get me walking. I was the that old guy Jerry Speaks of but I just didn't know it.

Gerry Spence is a mind-blowing genius. He was intended to make the winning case, just as we were meant to walk. When conflict has been your forbidden fruit since childhood, the winning argument should start with a mentality that allows you to argue freely. When you make an argument based on your own authority, it will not only prevail, but it will also stand out among the rest. On the other hand, requiring the winning argument involves the application of sophisticated methods. Spence has the necessary tools to achieve excellent results. May he live for at least another 30 years.

Amen I love ya man.

Ufffff intensa historia 👌🏽❤️

He looks like a great wizard

You are the best lawyer, full of justice, you defend a lot of helpless innocent people, thank you for defending Mrs. Marcos which until now oligarchs aftering the wealth of Marcos gold.

This guy is a legend 🙌

What a great guy, Gerry Spence my hero.

Humanity personified.

A genius!

Thank You Mr.Spence. Marcos ❤✌

Gerry Spence I'm watching you on youtube this 🌅 morning in Boulder Colorado. It was Mark Furman that did Nichole Simpson and Ron Goldman! Sorry to lose F.L. Bailey

SPENCE FOR AN ASSANGE DEFENCE

Win after win

I wish I could find a lawyer like Gerry Speance,for my son ,he was discriminated against greeting a interview,for a job he had been feeling in for ,for almost two months ,and was ask to finish the work until the person hired word start the work,he was always pressed by the people whose area he cleansed ,but was denied an interview because the person who selected the application,said his B.O. disqualified him ,mind you no one else complained about it ,and the superintendent wouldn't even allow an apology cuss that would ,be admitting guilt.this is a school district without witnesses to why he wasn't given an interview,yet they have interviewed him in the past without complaint of appearance or oider.

Dear Gerry Spence I'm watching you on youtube!!;) God

The quintessential attorney. A lawyers lawyer.

That must be a heavy weight on his soul. It takes a lot of courage to open publicly like that. It probably took that particular case to change his entire mission in life. I can only hope to become at least half of the attorney he is.

reminds me of the movie a civil action and various other ones that weaves in the transformation of lawyers and their confessions. but do these stories of public repentance have more impact on lawyers whose temperament is unformed and yet to be tested than simply narration of personal revelations? In Spence's case he's actually implemented what has a capacity for change. But I'm still uncertain about instilling in people the kind of sense of justice he hopes to deliver through the speech just by sharing personal stories such as these-not to mention that his discovery of the calling of justice only came as a culmination of events and the accidental encounter with the old man. After all, real changes only come with intimate relationship with the incident and the internal realization that follows.

These Seats should be overflowing!!!

you're a God sent to MARCOS family thank you

Gerry Spence Im listening to you on RU-vid giving your speech on RU-vid Stevie Nicks played Red Rocks in 1986 God

Thank you Atty. Gerry Spence for defending Madam Imelda.

Great speaker. His books teach you a lot. Tempted to go to his law school. Test jerker speech. Poor people are slaves to agents and courts...

When Did The Happened

A good lawyer can make great money as well. Those who cut corners compromising clients life & prospects with their dishonesty for quick money are the ones that bring a bad name to the entire fraternity. Life is short and karma is real. Your client is not guilty until proven, may justice be upheld at all times

Help

He is such a magnificent person! Such a magnificent man!! An undefeated Lawyer too!!! The best part is, he is truly a wonderful, caring, person who believes in the justice system!!! He is one of my heroes along with Abbie Hoffman, Harry Chapin, and Trddy Roosevelt.

He has a founder’s intellect. If you were to go back in time and spoke with John Adams you would find he would be as intellectual as John Adams. Gerry Spence is like John Adams who represented British soldiers after the Boston Massacre.

I'm going to finish my law degree

Gerry married a good woman to keep his soul right, as Immogene. Amen! He will tell you this as truth!

Spence have you watched The Wall Live in Berlin 1990 by Roger Waters. It was Mark Furman that did O.J. Simspon Nichole Simpson and Ron Goldman

►►► CONSEQUENTIAL CONSCIENCE ◄◄◄ Some people grow a _conscience_ *after* the pillage and plunder. Other people's _consciences_ preclude them from pillaging and plundering. Which group would get your applause?

thank you sir for defending mrs.marcos:))i hope your still here

It was Mark Ferman that killed Ron Goldman and Nichole Simpson

Gerry Spence your the greatest ever! Mark Fermin is the culprit in The O.J. Simpson Case

Dear Gerry Spence Someone from Pennsylvania won The $550 Millions jackpot!:) God

Lincoln represented the railroads--the great powers at the time.

I can't understand how you can call people ordinary. Aren't they extraordinary for working in an oil refinery, day in and day out living a dream to take their grandchildren to the wilderness...? Or are they only ordinary until they can achieve a level of success in depriving good people of justice?

Awesome. Watch how Attorney Daniel Sheehan describes Mr. Spence & his amazing participation in the trial on behalf of the historic case, in the murder of Karen Silkwood, in YT::: ("Karen Silkwood Trial: 5-8-2012 Daniel Sheehan")

Kind brilliant man defended our FL IMELDA MARCOS❤️❤️❤️ATTY GERRY SPENCE❤️❤️❤️
