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

The folks at cantor law group are nothing short of exceptional. After my third (and hopefully final) time retaining their services, I was nothing short of blown away at the intricate level of attention to detail that each member has provided my case. Even though my most recent experience was a home r...un from the start, they didn’t hesitate to ensure everything possible was done to obtain the most positive outcome. Amanda Szpakowski handled my case this time, and spared no effort to ensure every concern and question was answered to the fullest. She was always well prepared and committed to the expectations she set for my case. The service I was provided was worth its weight in gold, with quality service that shows its value in their hard work. There’s no question on if it would be worth returning a 4th time. There’s no doubt in my mind on who I would refer any family law matters to in the future.
