A Wonderful Lawyer

Alan was absolutely incredible to watch work. He has a great ability to empathize with his clients, and this understanding gives Alan the aptitude to convey the strong emotions of a tough case with mediators and judges. When we met, he was calm and cool under any discussion, and could see all sides o...f a case or possibility when I had already come to conclusions of how things would go, either for better or worse. He could assure me that my worst fears had not considered optimal routes, and that my greatest hopes had not considered possible snags. His mindful nature kept me going and kept me realistic about my case, and I cannot thank him enough.

Very good firm

It would be very difficult to recommend Mr Kassan without recommending his paralegal too, Kelly Rice. The two of them make a great team who truly work hard at fighting for you. Kelly Rice worked tirelessly on my case, learning every details, asking all of the questions, while being extremely responsi...ve, knowledgeable and caring. I truly believe that half of this case success is owed to her. Alan Kassan is also very knowledgeable, explained the process very well, answered all of my questions and also fought for what I was entitled. I know that without them (Kellie and Alan) I would not received anything. They were tough yet sympathetic, direct yet professional and respectful. I never felt I was alone with this team. Thank you for the incredible job you have done.

Excellent Attorney

Our family reached out to Kantor & Kantor after we made the decision to file a lawsuit against an insurance company which had violated the terms of our annuity contracts, and chose to not resolve the matter amicably. We were represented by Alan Kassan ESQ from their firm. Alan was very knowledgea...ble and informative, and always kept us apprised of any and all updates on our case as they came in. He also responded promptly to questions, as well as courteously sought our opinion whenever he made a choice to go in certain direction. In the end, through Alan's determination and expertise, he brought us a very favorable outcome that we could not have imagined. We highly recommend Alan and Kantor & Kantor to anyone who is seeking professional and competent representation.

Brilliant, Compassionate, Experienced, Successful

I cannot speak highly enough of my experience with Alan Kassan, whose sage advice and constant support is worth more than gold. Alan is a go-getter who knows how the system works, who is there for the "little guy", and who knows how to win for his clients by making insurance companies pay. Thanks, A...lan, for putting me on the winning track.

Knowledgeable and thorough

I approached Alan for help interpreting some clauses in a life insurance policy related to contestability which could have caused real problems in the future. An attorney friend whom I trust and respect referred me to Kantor & Kantor, the firm where Alan works (which specializes in insurance issues).... Alan was knowledgeable and experienced, familiar with the issues involved and able to give me excellent advice. I really benefitted from his knowledge and specialization in insurance issues. I would absolutely go back to him in the future with any insurance-related issues.
