The Most Sought After Law School Admissions Firm in the Industry

Paula Gluzman was exceptional! Her knowledge of the law school admissions process is unmatched, and she truly took the time to get to know me and my story. The brainstorming process was incredibly helpful, and her feedback pushed me to present my best self. I especially appreciated her sharp eye for detail and the creativity she brought to an often rigid system. I am so grateful for her guidance and support — I couldn’t have navigated this process without her.

Getting the chance to work with Paul Rollins was the highlight of my law school application process. I felt as if Paul really got to know me, and he helped me get into the mindset of what admissions officers want to see. He ensured that I was putting my best foot forward, and I truly feel like I outperformed my stats thanks to his support. Paul helped me fine-tune all of my materials, and his feedback was always thoughtful, strategic, and (most importantly) fast. He was always available, consistently provided quick turnarounds, and gave me a lot of confidence throughout the process. Realistically, I couldn’t have asked for a better consultant.

Nikki Laubenstein was so patient with me and always would get back to me quickly and efficiently. We worked on so many applications together and she always had so much patience with me. She always answered my seemingly never ending questions with ease, listened to my concerns, and voiced her advice with care. Nikki kept me on track throughout the application cycle and I know her advice and help was invaluable to me securing a spot in a great law school.

[I appreciated] not only the application cycle support but the mentorship and reassurance throughout the process that I was/am good enough to be lawyer! As a first-gen high school graduate and college student, this past application cycle was incredibly difficult. I trusted Anna Hicks-Jaco completely, and never once did I feel that she wasn't rooting for me. It gave me a sense of hope and motivation that even when I didn't believe in myself, Anna still did. While the feedback on my applications materials were EXTREMELY helpful, the relationship I developed with Anna was the truly the real gift!

Erika Guckenberger was wonderful to work with during my application cycle! She gives extremely personalized feedback on materials, and offers great advice on the best strategy for your candidacy. I truly believe that my great results last cycle were made possible through her assistance from the beginning to the end of the process.

Joe Pollak took me from someone who never thought law school was even a possibility for him to going to a school I never thought I’d be able to attend!

Sam Parker is the best. She was such an abundant source of uplifting positivity at HLS even before I began law school. And once I got to school, Sam’s care for students was plain for all to see — she stayed in touch, checked in, and went out of her way constantly to help everyone. She was probably the most liked member of the Admissions office by students and staff alike. She is incredibly insightful about the legal admissions world, and given her years of experience at HLS, clearly has her finger on the pulse of what admissions offices are looking for — especially now in our changing world and landscape. She is also, simply put, a wonderfully kind person. She sees the best in everyone and is fun, thoughtful, resourceful, and engaging. I have absolutely no doubts about Sam’s abilities as an effective communicator, and I am certain she will be an invaluable resource to her clients at Spivey, helping them craft their narratives and stories into beautifully constructed essays and interview answers. Sam has also read thousands of law school applications from the cream of the crop — that is a rare experience she will leverage in advising her clients. She is one of my very favorite people at HLS, and I can say with absolute confidence that if I were a student applying to law school right now and needed help leveling up my admissions work product, I would look no further than Sam. HLS’s tremendous loss is certainly Spivey's gain. She is the elite of elite — while also being disarmingly humble and charmingly kind. Work with Sam — you won’t regret it!

Anne Dutia was amazing -- so smart, knowledgeable, skilled, and a joy to work with.  She gave me incredibly valuable guidance and truly made a huge positive impact in my admissions results.  I could tell she really cared and went above and beyond in understanding me as a law school candidate and how my application could be best tailored for the schools.  I could not be more grateful and recommend her so strongly to everyone!

Tom Robinson is an expert in consulting for international applicants and was phenomenal in helping me write my story based on experiences with legal systems in different countries. He taught me how to improve my writing skills tremendously which helped me a lot on my essays as well as my current law school classes.

Nathan Neely has always been supportive and patient, sometimes sacrificing his off time to deliver feedback on time.  He provides critical insights from an former adcom's perspective, which is very helpful.

Derek was indispensable to my law school applications. His expertise, responsiveness, and genuine care made an incredibly stressful process feel manageable. I got into my top choice school with a scholarship so Spivey was definitely worth the investment!

Jenn Kopolow's competent and clear guidance made the entire application process straightforward and efficient. Her feedback was always insightful and on time. I would recommend her to any law school applicant.

Danielle went above and beyond as a consultant, not only in helping me craft a strong package to present the best version of myself to law schools, but also in helping me get to know the legal field better as someone without much prior/family exposure. She provided much-appreciated guidance and connected me with resources to better understand how my identity will impact my future legal career, and I am feeling even more confident going into law school thanks to her assistance.

Spivey Consulting is worth every penny for transfer students looking to get into their top school of choice. The timeline and process is very condensed and stressful and having the firm behind you is a game changer. I had the privilege of working with Nikki Laubenstein who help me strategically navigate this complex admissions cycle.

Shannon Davis was extraordinarily helpful, efficient, and clear in her communication, feedback, and suggestions. I strongly recommend that anyone concerned about the quality of their admissions materials contact her for assistance. Her help made me a better writer.
