I don't recommend!

I don't recommend, don't make the mistake that I did, find a lawyer out there that DOES do his job, sticks to his word, and isn't rude! At first (based on a discussion that i had with Atty Cantrell) I really thought this lawyer was going to be good, but ... I quickly realized he was not, then he does...n't like when we keep calling to check on things BUT if he did what he told us he would do then we wouldn't have to keep calling. Also, I'm having a hard time getting my money back, thousands are thousands and i am not rich, i stayed almost broke to pay a down payment, which i wouldn't care if he did his job but since he didn't then i just need my money back.This was such a horrible experience, I don't wish this for anyone else. As per his staff; Sylvia, Daniel & Wayne, they are all very nice people, it's not their fault. Good luck on your search!

ONE OF THE BEST

I have used Mr Cantrell several times, for issues regarding my son, His office staff was very easy to deal with and knowledgeable. I was able to breath. I would recommend him to any one who is in trouble. He is worth it!!

A Team that cares and gets results!

First time ever in jail and looking at felony 2 with a court appointed lawyer and I was terrified by all the horror stories of my fellow inmates. My odds at getting one to actually care to show up and discuss my case with me were little to none. I heard continuously bad things about most court appo...inted lawyers. They finally assigned one to me four weeks in and by 9 am the next morning his team was there to work to help me. I was blown away. He immediately went to work for me and was never to busy to answer questions of any kind .and put the effort into my case. When my first court date arrived and was reset with no future date I was horrified. Within one week I was out of jail with case dismissed and back at home where I belong. I can't say it enough.. Thank you Anthony Cantrell. You were a cut above the rest.

A lawyer who fights for you

I was wrongfully charged with a federal charge and Mr. Cantrell got my charges dropped he did not try to push me into accepting a plea but fought for me all the way until the end. He and his staff were very helpful through the whole process
