Honest and competent

Client for nearly 20 years. Eric is professional and knows his business. Have recommended family and friends. His paralegal Naomi is also rated similarly.

Top notch attorney

Would recommend Mr. Eric Canter with no hesitation. Throughout the process, he made me feel extremely comfortable, and always had my best interest. He was such a kind and honest person who worked hard to make sure I was fully compensated for my injuries. His staff , especially Naomi , is just as kind and helpful as he is. It was a real pleasure and im so thankful to have been referred to him.

Excellent Attorney and Paralegal

Eric is an outstanding PI Lawyer and really cares about his clients. Eric and his paralegal Naomi were both extremely responsive and honest. They kept me informed throughout the entire process as my case took over a year to be resolved. This was only to negotiate the best possible result, in which I received! I would without hesitation recommend Eric and his team. Call his office and you will definitely be in good hands.

Commented-Dedicated-Professional

I was referred to Eric Canter after being involved in a rear end auto accident. We developed a wonderful attorney - client relationship. He was always available to answer my calls. He would even call me to follow up with me to see how I was doing. He supported me thru my medical treatments, surgery and rehabilitation. If you are unfortunate to be involved with an accident, etc., I know that Eric Canter will be the strong arm that you will need to see you thru to a very satisfactory conclusion. Best of Luck to you!!! You found the right attorney!!

Above and beyond what I expected

From our initial visit with him I found him to be an informative, efficient and professional attorney. I have had several attorneys over the years and I knew Mr. Canter was really working for me. Mr. Canter was very down to earth and was always willing to get on the phone and listen to our thoughts and answer our questions. Mr. Canter never failed us, always did what he said he would and went above and beyond what I expected.

Eric Canter is an excellent attorney!

Mr Canter handled and resolved my personal injury lawsuit in a way that exceeded my expectations financially and in every way. He received my case from my initial attorney who had been working on it for almost 18 months with very disappointing results. Mr Canter was able to successfully resolve my claim in less than six months. His office responded to all of my inquires and concerns in a thoughtful and informative manner. I am grateful to Mr Canter for the work he and his assistant Naomi did on my behalf. I strongly recommend Eric Canter.

Excellent Lawyer

Mr. Canter as a person in general is awesome. He will fight for the rights of his clients. Very nice man and knowledgeable in his field. He keeps on top of things, he also responds to phone calls and is prompt in getting back to you. He doesn't ignore his clients. He doesn't leave his assistants to do his job, he does it himself. Very satisfied with Mr. Canter, he even will take your call after you are no longer a client, just to see how you are doing. I would recommend him to anyone seeking a personal injury lawyer.

Best Referral Ever

I was referred to Eric by another lawyer in Fort Lauderdale with the understanding that he would be able to better evaluate the ins and outs of my case. I called on a Friday afternoon and was welcomed to his office without hesitation right on Las Olas Blvd. I later found out that he drove in to FLL just to meet us! Mr. Canter made my wife and I feel great about our decision to call and within a few weeks he had gotten us exactly what we needed to both heal, pay our bills, and replace the only family vehicle we had lost. Obviously we couldn't have done it with out you and your staff Mr. Canter. Thank you!

Shocking. A Lawyer that doesn't make me cringe.

I typically ignore lawyer ads and if you are anything like me, you never see yourself needing to call one. Low and behold - we were rear ended when a friend ran out of gas and we had to slow down to pull over. We were plowed by a car destroying the car and putting us all in the hospital. Canter and his team always took my calls. Always explained the good, bad, and the ugly and most importantly always made us feel like he was in control and not just being a yes man. Most lawyers can make your skin crawl. This one fights and fights hard. Without doubt, best law firm in South Florida!

Excellent law firm

Eric Canter has been a phenomenal attorney for me. I really liked that he would take as much time as needed to explain each and every step of the case with me. Naomi (his assistant) is second to none. It's nice to know they are there whenever I call and I'm Not charged for every phone call I made, and I made numerous calls. I have had some horrible experiences with attorneys and felt like a "number" in their file. With the Canter Law Firm, you are a friend and not just a number. One of the best parts was Eric negotiated an extra 25% on my recent case which was extra money in my pocket. I highly recommend Eric and Naomi, they are great!!!!
