Blessed to have found Barreda Law and Michael Alvarez

Going through a nasty divorce? Do not go to Barreda, RUN to Barreda Law! I started my divorce journey with a very expensive lawyer only to go through $7500 (my retainer) for nothing but two months of back and forth emails that led to nothing. I fired her and hired Michael of Barreda Law. All I can s...ay is WOW!!!! Michael really knows the law and fights for me. I feel safe and in great hands. I used to get such anxiety when my previous lawyer sent me emails as she seemed never on my side and every email was 'gloom and doom'. Michael lets the other side know when they have crossed the line or try to. We are finally almost to the end of this rough and nasty uphill battle and I managed to get here with my head still held high because of Michael and Barreda Law holding my hand the whole way. Thank you Barreda Law!!!

You won’t be disappointed!

Josh and his team have followed me and supported me throughout this extremely difficult and frustrating time for over two years now. My case was unique and there were a lot of ups and downs and Josh was extremely supportive, understanding and reassuring throughout every phase, especially when I was h...aving a large amount of anxiety and personal doubt. He was knowledgeable, thoroughly prepared for every situation, and took every challenge with an extraordinarily arduous opposing counsel without any hesitation or even a blink of an eye. If you want someone who will listen to you, take into account every aspect of your life and your personal view on your matter, will work with you even through financial hard times and won’t nickel and dime you and won’t swindle you, who is an absolute bulldog in the court room and extremely professional as well as being personable at the same time then you won’t be disappointed with Josh and his team.

Excellent, caring, compassionate, confident, efficient, talented lawyer!! Loved working with him every step of the way!

I am so thankful and VERY bless to have met Mr. Joshua A. Barreda! I called in to Cantor Law the day after I was served with notice to appear with a 2 week notice and they got me in for a free consult that day. The first man I met took the time to get to know my case along with my personality and tha...t is when they paired me with Joshua. At Cantor Law Group the they are more than “just a business” they care and take the time to help you through every bend in the road. I can not say enough about Joshua however, I felt like he was more than just my lawyer, he became a friend. Joshua cared about my case on a level I didn’t think was possible, when I would call in upset or crying over documents he was already waiting! He took the time to get to know ME to the point that he knew before he sent me the Respondents papers he knew to make sure he was available if I called (which I always did!). It never seemed to matter how many times I needed to call or email Mr. Barreda ALWAYS responded quickly with all the answers or reassurance I needed. He is confident but also realistic and never gives you false hope, he never mislead me. He was always professional and efficient, especially in trial! I appreciated him more than I think he truly knows. I loved being a client because of him along with the other staff there at the office. (I loved his paralegal Erica d’Entremont! I was very sad to hear she departed the firm to purse life with her family in another state, but so glad I was able to meet and work with her for the majority of my case) I will close with this, I am not your “typical” woman, I don’t dress fancy, I walked into their very beautiful downtown Phoenix high rise office, feeling very intimidated myself, with my worn out cowboy boots, jeans and grunt style t-shirts, but I NEVER felt judged or less important than someone who may walk in with a $3,000 suit. They are so friendly, kind, caring and attentive making it always a comfortable experience.

GREAT ATTORNEY ! ! !

Cantor Law group set me up with an AMAZING attorney Joshua Barreda, and a fantastic paralegal Erica d’Entremont. They were very diligent in remaining in good communication throughout the whole process. Walked into the courtroom today and left with a smile. Joshua Barreda is a stern, smart, and calcu...lated attorney who does not beat around the bush when it comes to dealing with issues. Erica d’Entremont did a fantastic job with researching, following up, and communicating with me about issues and addressing my concerns. Thank you for the hard work and dedication you provided to me throughout this process.
