Josh and Karen are my heroes!

I was at the beginning of what I knew would be a long and nasty custody battle. Cantor put Josh Barreda and his paralegal Karen on my case and I felt like I hit the jackpot. They made such a difficult and emotional process easier and walked me through every phase perfectly. They set clear expectation...s from the beginning, and they were beyond friendly and understanding even during the most frustrating and painful times. Knowing that I had Cantor Law and Josh & Karen in my corner gave me so much comfort and I am forever grateful for everything they have done to help me since day one. I was blown away in court at how prepared Josh was, and his willingness to fight for me. Their hard work has meant the world to me and because of them, my daughter and I can live a happy and peaceful life. I cannot thank them enough, they are literally my heroes!

He made my life easier while dealing with one of the most stressful times of my life.

I had just recently finished my case regarding child custody, legal decision making, and child support. It was a very daunting time in my life but Josh Barreda helped me through everything and was there for me every step of the way. I was very blessed to come across him. He was very straight up with ...me from the beginning and kept in contact with me frequently regarding updates in my case and communication with opposing party. When I ran into problems and anxiety was running high he was just a phone call away. I always felt better after talking with him and planning our next steps. Sitting in a court room is a very nerve-wracking experience but Josh traveled to represent me multiple times and helped set my nerves at ease each court hearing. Josh really knows his stuff and fought hard for me and my family and for that I will be forever thankful for him and the Cantor Law family.

Excellent Juvenile Attorney

I had a very difficult case with my ex having huge mental issues, drug abuse and abandonment. My ex was trying to fight against having his rights severed. I was recommeded to Joshua and I couldn’t be happier. I called their office and they were able to get me into their office the same day. I told th...em the case and they were very confident. I met with Joshua and he explained the whole process. After several months of preparation, we went to trial and he was completely prepared. He was able to get me everything I asked for. If I had to go back to family court, I would have had used Joshua there too. I believe Joshua was the reason I won my case. He was very knowledgeable and used the right resources to prove my case. I can’t imagine going with another attorney. I’m so very thankful!

Awesome attorney

joshua was the only attorney willing to fight for my case and actually sincerely cared about my case. He helped me get my kids back regardless of the obstacles faced ahead of us. With me being military and the father of my kids being civilian it was a tough case for me to win but Joshua plays hard ba...ll and knows exactly what he is doing. He killed it in court and I am extremely happy with the results. I have Joshua to thank for helping me through a tough case and although it wasn’t easy Joshua was never willing to give in or get me anything less than what I deserved. I most definitely will recommend him Hands down!!
