About Mark

Don't Settle For Less! Maximize your financial recovery. We are experts and only handle Injury cases. We're Modern, Agressive, and we Win!

Mark Cantor is a founding member of the St. Louis personal injury law firm Cantor Injury Law. My legal practice is dedicated exclusively to recovering money for those seriously injured by the negligent actions of others. I strongly believe that a client or family with a personal injury case should be allowed equal access to our American justice system without financial concerns and should not pay any fee or expenses for aggressive and competent representation unless the case is won. Therefore, it is free to meet with me or any lawyer at Cantor Injury Law regarding your personal injury case and our contract for representation clearly states that no money is owed for fees or expenses until you win.

I have a strong civil practice and am proud to have recovered millions of dollars for those injured by car accidents, motorcycle accidents, truck accidents, birth injuries, wrongful death cases, slip and falls and other premises liability cases, dog bites, products liability or dangerous products, and other negligence theories of recovery by jury trial and settlement. I have been practicing exclusively in Missouri personal injury litigation and have over 25 years of experience. 

Missouri is my home state and I enjoy the great outdoors. Cantor Injury Law has a retreat center called Cantor Land for my family, my law firm, and clients to enjoy (invitation only).

    Not going to get into details but I was rear ended by somebody on a busy traffic route. Insurance company was giving me a hard time. Other driver had issues making it harder to process the claim. Anyhow, an acquaintance recommended Mark Cantor. He made the whole process so much easier. Got me a rental car, put together the claim for me, made sure I went to a reputable auto body repair shop. Everything happened with relative ease an comfort because of him. So nice to just let my lawyer do the work on my behalf and to never feel alone during this thing.

    Wonderful Experience

    This law firm treated me so well from the beginning to the end of my case. Mark personally met with me, kept me updated on my case throughout, and then handed me my settlement check. The paralegals were very supportive and always updated me on my case as well. This was a very smooth experience, and I recommend this place highly.

    Made a bad experience a great one

    Posted by

    After I had my accident I hired a lawyer to represent me that lawyer did not do as he promised he will so I was recommended to Mark! He did not only assure me that he will do everything possible to get me the right treatment and the best possible care but he delivered very highly on those promises! I walked out feeling better after a year of treatment and am so thankful for every little and big thing Mark and his staff have provided for me ... He truly is an nice guy who will sitt down with you, explaining every little thing in detail and will fight for you not just as a client but as a friend you can trust! I am proud I have chosen him to represent me and even happier with the outcome! Mark is fantastic and I can't thank him enough for everything!!! He is a rock star at what he does and such a professional yet so very humble and kind!! Thank you Cantor staff !

    Professional, compassionate, and responsive law firm

    Posted by

    I was involved in a car accident and went to the office of Cantor Injury Law for a free consultation. I've dealt with various law firms in the past, but was very surprised and happy with how polite and responsive Mark and his staff were. During my consultation Mark outlined the process of what to expect as my case progresses and during the pendency of my claim I was given frequent status updates. Hands down the best experience in dealing with a law firm that I've ever had. I would definitely recommend and use Mark Cantor again.

    Mark and his staff are top notch! Very knowledgeable of the law and does not hesitate to fight for what's right. If I have any questions at all they will explain them right away. I wouldn't even consider using anyone else to fight for me.
