Gerry Spence
Since graduating cum laude from the University of Wyoming Law School in 1952, Wyoming native Gerry Spence has spent his lifetime representing the poor, the injured, the forgotten and the damned against what he calls “the new slave master,” a combine of mammoth corporations and gargantuan government. Nationally recognized for his famous courtroom victories (Karen Silkwood, Randy Weaver, Imelda Marcos, Geoffrey Fieger), his television commentaries, his 16 books and his fine art photography, Spence has never lost a criminal case – either as a prosecutor or a defense attorney – has not lost a civil case since 1969, and has had more multi-million dollar verdicts without an intervening loss than any lawyer in America.
