Amanda Szpakowski

I walked into Cantor Law shaking with fear and guilt. My son was deep in a mental health crisis, his estranged wife had been abusive to him and my two little granddaughters, and she was planning to flee the state with the girls before the divorce was even final. I knew I had to step in to protect my ...grandbabies, but I was terrified of the consequences. My son is still angry with me for taking legal action, and honestly, that breaks my heart every day. The moment I sat down with Amanda in person for our first meeting, I trusted her. She looked me in the eye, listened to every detail, and never once made me feel like I was overstepping or wrong for fighting for those little girls. She was calm, direct, and kind all at once. She warned me this would be an incredibly difficult case; emergency custody orders for grandparents are almost never granted, and extensions are even rarer. I left that meeting feeling heard and, for the first time, hopeful. Amanda and her amazing paralegal Robyn became my rock. They gathered evidence, filed the emergency petition, and somehow, against all odds, the judge granted it. Then we went back to court for the extension, Amanda prepared me for the worst, but we won again. My granddaughters are now safe and stable because of the fierce, brilliant work this team did. This has been one of the most painful and stressful chapters of my life. I’m still trying to repair things with my son, and that hurts deeply, but I will never regret doing what I had to do to protect those babies. Amanda and Robyn held my hand through every tear, every late-night panic, every court appearance. They explained everything, fought relentlessly, and held my hand through it all. If you’re a grandparent facing the unthinkable and you need someone who will fight for your grandchildren when no one else will, run to Amanda Cantor. She is compassionate, brilliant, and absolutely fearless in court. I owe her and Robyn everything. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for saving my grandbabies when even my own son couldn’t see it yet. A heartbroken but eternally grateful grandmother

I definitely give Amanda Szpakowski 5 stars out 5 stars on everything pertaining to the work she did but not limited to just her. Her paralegal and office in general are beyond professional, caring, and quick to respond. Their knowledge and expertise was superb! Going through a very difficult process... was scary in itself but Amanda and her office made everything move quickly and professional which made the process so much easier. I would recommend Amanda to any friends or family so that should say it all. Thank you so much Amanda Szpakowski and Cantor Law Group.

I can’t thank Amanda enough for her professionalism, patience, and compassion through one of the hardest seasons of my life. She truly listened, guided me with honesty and care, and handled every step with grace — even when emotions were high. She fought for what was fair and helped me find peace in ...the end. I’m deeply grateful and would recommend her to anyone needing not just a great attorney, but a genuinely kind person in their corner.

I absolutely love what Amanda has done for me and my son! I am still in shock to finally be heard... Throughout this entire process, I've had zero support from friends, family, and medical professionals. Even the closest person to me washed her hands of it! I am so moved by what Amanda has done fo...r me and my boy. I honestly thought that I had made things worse in court by just being me. But I could feel the compassion from everyone there. Without Amanda's preparation, kindness, and professionalism, I would not have had the strength. If you could only see the smile on my son's face, the instant wave of calm that came over his face when I told him! This truly is one of the best things to ever happen to me, even though it sourced from the worst! Amanda has my highest recommendations and respect. The word 'appreciate' is not a strong enough word for the help and compassion she gave us... That unspoken word was in my watery eyes when we walked out.. and when I told my son... And when I told my other kids...I am in awe. Thank you so much, Amanda!!!

My attorney Amanda Szpakowski and paralegal Robyn McCraw worked very aggressively on my child custody case. They got it resolved extremely fast! They even worked with me regarding financial issues which I appreciated so much! They won my case and I have my children. No words can express my gratitude.... Thank you so much Amanda and Robyn. God bless. Five stars!!!
