Outstanding Attorney

Zachary is an outstanding attorney and my husband and I give him the highest possible rating. He went above and beyond the call of duty and fought hard for our son; and he walked us through every step of the process. We are not from the Ft. Myer area, in fact we are not from Florida, but the distanc...e between states was never an issue. He was in constant contact with my husband and I throughout the case; he told us what paper work we needed to have, and prepared us to have realistic expectations regarding our son's case. His attention to detail is meticulous and we are grateful. Mr. Cantor is an outstanding attorney, who worked diligently for the most favorable outcome for our son. Mr. Cantor has an extremely professional demeanor and he was gracious with his time with us. If we needed further explanation regarding the specifics of an issue, he took the time required to completely inform both my husband and myself until we understood. He didn't sugar coat anything, in fact his attention to be forthright and honest regarding realistic expectations was most appreciated. He is an outstanding lawyer and we would recommend him to anyone needing an attorney.

I hired Zachary Cantor when my son was arrested while visiting Fort Myers. Zach handled all aspects of my sons case with total professionalism. We were updated regularly by Zach and he never hesitated to return my calls promptly. Within a few months Zach had gotten all charges dropped. I would hi...ghly recommend Zachary Cantor.

Happy Client

I will start by saying I am a person who does not like change and usually stick with what I know. With that being said I was told about Viacava & Cantor and scheduled an appointment. Zack is the attorney I met with from the initial meeting I was warmly greeted by the receptionist and and shown in to ...me the attorney and it was the best change I have ever done. Not only from the initial meeting was I made to feel comfortable, welcomed and as part of the family, I was given in detail explanations. Every and any questions that I had at any point in time were answered. no matter the amount of times I called even if the attorney was unavailable my calls were retuned. That feeling of not knowing what's going on.. Not at Viacava & Cantor! At the end Victory of course. I would recommend anyone that would listen to call them set up an appointment if you want your case done RIGHT with the RIGHT people. Let this law firm handle your case.
