Julie Canter Law

Julie is a Professional that is dedicated to helping her clients. She is not your typical lawyer in that she wants to do what's right for you and guide you the best way possible during hard times. I cannot stress enough how important it was that I found her when I needed a lawyer (never thought I wo...uld need one). Julie is great to talk to and help you understand the situation and your options. She is extremely professional but if the situation warrants it she will dig in and fight like no other. I don't think it's possible to find a better lawyer in the tricities.

Fighting for You

I was charged with a felony & Ms. Canter was recommended by a friend. This was the first time I had ever been in trouble. I was scared, nervous & felt helpless. After I met with Ms. Canter I was more at ease. She was upfront with pricing (which was fair) & what my options were. She fought for me & ke...pt me updated with any new changes that happened to my case. In the end, we won my case & the charges were dropped. If you want someone who will fight for you, she is the lady you are looking for.

Excellent Attorney

Julie prepared several legal documents for myself and my husband. She didn't do as most attorneys and have someone else take care of the paperwork. She made sure, herself, that all was done correctly, we were happy with the content, and she did it with both kindness and professionalism. I can honest...ly say, I've never met an attorney with her integrity, knowledge of the law, along with showing such respect for her clients. She explained everything in detail and in a way we could fully understand, never once being inpatient. She would certainly be my recommendation to anyone seeking legal help. She goes above and beyond to do whats best for her clients.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
