Spivey Consulting Group Recenzje 64

Highly recommend Spivey and working with Julia Truemper. Julia was incredibly attentive, responsive, and thoughtful as I worked through my applications. Cannot recommend her and the team enough!

I worked with Paula Gluzman and I have to say her guidance was essential in my application being successful and getting me accepted into Penn Carey Law School. Of course, my opinion reflects only my experience but I can say with certainty if I had not made the investment to work with Paula I would not have been able to start my law school in September of 2026. Specifically, there is a lot of minute details and nuances that must be taken into account when applying for law school, especially when submitting a large number of applications. The details become even more overwhelming when you realize that each school has its own unique application process. However, working with Paula was extremely helpful because she streamlined the complicated application process and made it manageable given the relatively short amount of time that I had. In addition, I should say that the feedback that Paula provided me after reviewing my essays and application material was also extremely helpful and constructive. Her feedback was honest, detailed, and straightforward and she was very quick and responsive when replying to my emails. She was also very clear about her availabilities which made planning easier. Overall, given my personal circumstances and the tight timeline that I was on, Paula's guidance and feedback was absolutely a game-changer for me and enabled me to put together a polished, top-notch application that eventually got me into Penn Carey Law School.

From start to finish, Hannah ensured that my application cycle would yield the best results possible given my complicated circumstances (lower GPA, later application submission, highly competitive cycle). All that considered, I knew I'd have an uphill battle in front of me applying to highly competitive law programs; Hannah helped to set realistic expectations, maximize the potential of my written materials, and keep me on track. She was always available when I needed her, and gave wonderful advice regarding which schools to apply to and where to focus my energy. Additionally, she was greatly helpful navigating the addendum process and making sure that these materials helped, rather than hurt, my application. Overall, I had a wonderful experience working with Hannah and was ultimately admitted to my top choice law school thanks to her expertise. I would highly recommend working with both Hannah and Spivey during the law school application process.

I just finished an amazing admissions cycle with Anne Dutia. Because I have some non-traditional aspects of my educational, professional, and personal history, she did a great job ensuring that every piece of my story tied together in a cohesive manner. Further, she was instrumental in helping me trim unnecessary parts of my essays while elaborating on valuable parts that I had omitted.

Her communication style is also praiseworthy. I was clear on the outset that I preferred direct feedback to sugarcoating. Anne really delivered on this. She was very honest (but polite) about bad ideas that I initially thought were good, and her suggestions came back timely and in great detail.

In hindsight, this service was even more helpful than I originally expected. Given the value of admission results and scholarships, the five application package I bought would've still been worth it at twice the price.

My advisor Paula was so caring and patient from day one. She gave me a roadmap, surrounded me with resources, and made herself available all the time. No questions were too small or too large for her and she was genuinely invested in my success. My applications would not have been the same without her! I have some friends who used other Spivey consultants and have not had exactly the same experience so there is perhaps some variance among consultants.

Spivey Consulting was extremely helpful! They helped me put together the best law school application, highlighting all of my strengths. I especially loved working with Sam Parker. She is extremely thorough, caring, and knowledgeable about the field of law school admissions. With her help, I was admitted to my top-choice law school! I'd recommend any law school applicant to work with Sam or another member of the Spivey Team.

Sam was instrumental in assisting my application process. She provided helpful and timely feedback on my written materials. Sam’s strategic advice was sound and significantly boosted my confidence throughout the application timeline. Furthermore, her communication and professionalism were outstanding. I would highly recommend her to any interested clients!

I had a fantastic experience working with Spivey Consultant Sam Parker. Sam exemplifies professionalism and her expertise was invaluable to my admissions process. Sam guided me throughout the admissions process, and worked with me to ensure that I was bringing out the best in myself in my applications. Beyond her professionalism and expertise, Sam is a fantastic person and was a joy to work with. I would highly recommend Sam Parker and Spivey Consulting Group to any prospective JD applicant.

The recommendations that were made during the application process were always delivered considerately while still helpfully honest. I also felt my identity was respected and taken into account throughout writing my essays.

Nathan Neely went above and beyond in his role to ensure that my application was the very best it could be for submission. He gave thoughtful, specific feedback not just on my essays, but on the totality of my application. He helped me think through aspects of my application profile I had not fully considered and provided clear, careful guidance on how my materials would come together for an admissions committee. That level of detail and care made a real difference.
As a below-median applicant, I will be attending a top 25 law school with a substantial merit scholarship and could not be more excited about my outcomes. I am confident that Nathan’s feedback helped move the needle on the success of my application cycle.

Erika Guckenberger hands down is the best there is at Spivey. Just to list a few reasons why: always understanding of your situation, super responsive (even on weekends!), very accommodating to time zone differences, gentle yet upfront about application improvements, overall a warm and calm voice to be around during the high-stress period of law school applications and waiting for decisions. If there is one Spivey Consultant I'd recommend over and over again, it most definitely is Erika. ASK FOR ERIKA.

Highly recommend working with Sam Parker. She has a wealth of knowledge on the admissions process and provides loads of insightful/useful feedback. As someone with an odd work schedule, I greatly valued her flexibility & willingness to make time. Her positive energy & attitude combined with subject matter expertise helps to make the opaque process of applying to law school less daunting. Highly recommend!

I was beyond fortunate to work with Sam Parker at Spivey Consulting Group. Spivey's resources were comprehensive, and Sam's guidance was exceptional and walked me through every step of the law school application process.

I received fantastic results, and although I don't know how things would have shaken out had I applied without Sam's consulting, I am confident that every application, regardless of its end result, was submitted in its best form with my absolute best foot forward. And I believe my outcomes reflect that.

Sam was--and as I imagine all of Spivey's consultants are-- constantly available, punctual, responsive, and always on top of things. And whether I reached out with an urgent question surrounding part of an application form, a final review of my third draft of an essay, or a vent email on my frustration with cycle delays, I always received a prompt response. Indeed, Sam helped advise me on questions I had about schools not even included in our contract. She went above and beyond to help me in every part of the process.

Moreover, I was able to meet with her over zoom at any time, as much as I wanted. And trust me when I say that I made use of that! I also received periodic newsletter emails that kept me abreast of the stage of the cycle, any important shifts, and what to expect at that time.

Beyond her availabiltiy and punctuality, she was empathetic, passionate, kind, relatable, and always honest. I felt like not only did I have a brilliant mind with insight into the process helping sharpen each part of my application, but also like I had a friend to talk to. That mattered just as much, if not more.

Her help was invaluable, and I consider the amount I invested well worth it. Thank you Spivey, and thank you Sam. I truly feel so, so, lucky to have had you supporting me.

I cannot recommend Spivey Consulting Group, and Sam Parker in particular, enough.

Spivey's extensive resources and knowledge base were immensely valuable in guiding my application strategy and decision-making throughout the entire cycle. We were able to create a manageable application strategy tailored to my background and future goals. Since I have a STEM background with limited connections in the legal field, it was incredibly helpful to work directly with someone who had previously worked in an admissions office. My consultant was responsive, supportive, and insightful at every step. I am thrilled with my outcomes, especially in such a competitive application cycle, and I would recommend their services to anyone who is seeking additional guidance throughout the law school application process.

I had a phenomenal experience with Spivey Consulting! My consultant was Mike Burns. I greatly valued his prior experience directly in Law School Admissions, so felt like I could trust his advice and insights. It was also a huge relief to have an expert I could go to with any questions and to gut-check my thoughts and instincts. I ended up getting into my top choice school, which was a super reach/long shot, and I know that part of that success was due to Mike's guidance and insights and polishes to my application. It was definitely an expensive service, but given my results, it was definitely a worthwhile investment. Would highly recommend for anyone applying to law school who has a unique background and isn't sure how to put together a polished package!

I am so grateful to Spivey, and Nikki in particular, for their help with my application cycle. As a nontraditional applicant with several years of work experience, a high LSAT, and a low GPA, I knew I had an uphill battle during a historically difficult application cycle. From day one, Nikki provided practical advice and feedback, kept me on track as I juggled two dozen applications alongside a full time job, and ensured my materials were in the best possible shape. When I was faced with nearly a dozen waitlists, she ensured I had a plan of attack and helped me maintain momentum through a long summer of waiting and following up. As a result, I ended up at a top 20 school off the waitlist with a scholarship, where I am now finishing my first year of law school. I couldn’t have done it without Nikki and Spivey and can’t recommend them enough. It is well worth the investment in your future to hire them!

Working with Tom Robinson from Spivey was an incredible experience! As a nontraditional applicant, I was uncertain and concerned about how best to package my non-legal experiences into compelling essays for law school. Tom went above and beyond with the amount of hours he spent jointly brainstorming and providing thorough feedback on countless drafts (even on weekends). He was also exceptionally kind and caring throughout the whole process, which was particularly helpful in easing my nerves during interviews. I'm thrilled to be going to my dream school, and Tom's work was invaluable in helping me present the best version of myself on my applications. I can't recommend Spivey enough!

As a first-generation student entering the 2025 application cycle, I came into this process with so much self-doubt and anxiety. In particular, as a minority, I was concerned the contentiousness around DEI and affirmative action would render my stats inadequate and that my application materials would never be enough.

I applied to a wide variety of law schools, nearly blanketing the T14. While I can't say my own tenacity did not play a part in my success so far, Spivey Consulting, particularly Spivey Consultant Michael Burns, provided me with more insight than I could have ever found on my own on how to succeed in such a competitive cycle. I truly feel the resources Spivey offered were instrumental to knowing how I could be the most strategic in leveraging who I really am outside of my statistics to law schools. With it only being the middle of the cycle, I have already been accepted to NYU, Northwestern, UCLA, and Vanderbilt. Moreover, I have also completed interviews with UChicago, Yale, and Harvard.

The opportunity to work with Spivey, specifically within the Spivey Pro Bono Program, embodies the difference between breaking generational curses for someone like me. Spivey has not only provided me with confidence in myself and the story I carry, but a little bit more faith in society to make the legal field more equitable.

I was recommended Spivey and my consultant Paula Gluzman through a mutual friend, and I am so grateful that I was able to work with her as a full cycle client. As a first generation law student, I really couldn’t have asked for a better match. Paula was not only helpful with advice and resources, but was also always responsive to my worries and stresses throughout the entire process. I honestly had no idea where to start and what I had to offer law schools, and she really helped with personally tailoring my application in ways I hadn’t even considered. Her help with my essays was always honest and I felt like she could understand exactly what I wanted to say while giving constructive criticism on how I could better express it in my application. This cycle was stressful, and I can’t emphasize enough how helpful Paula’s advice & expertise, attitude, and encouragement the entire time was. I fully believe my admission to an amazing law school with a great scholarship offer during such a competitive cycle is absolutely in part due to Paula’s help. Spivey’s application resources, both free and provided, were very useful, and I would recommend Paula to anyone applying to law school!
