The Best

I am happy to write this review for Glenn and his firm. I found Glenn on Superlawyers and got extremely lucky to have found such a talented, empathetic, and all around A+ human being to help my case. From the moment I spoke with the intake associate, I knew this firm would do their best for me. Worki...ng with Glenn and his team is such a relief during what is most likely a difficult time. Absolutely the best service with expertise and compassion. Thank you for everything!

Deserving of 10 Stars

Glenn Kantor assisted us in reaching a settlement with our insurance company for recovery of out of pocket medical expenses which the insurer deemed not covered by our policy. Glenn fought with tenacity and took on the insurance company as though we were family. Glenn was responsive to our calls an...d helped us through a difficult period in our lives. In the end, he helped us reach a reasonable settlement and we are forever thankful to him for his diligent work. I hate the thought of ever needing to hire an attorney again in my life, but should the need arise I can promise that I will hire Glenn Kantor.

Very kind and knowledgeable

I am currently helping my father navigate how to apply for disability with a very serious illness. We had no idea where to start and we were reading misleading information online. Everything seemed extremely daunting, and I knew I had to check in with an experienced long term disability lawyer to mak...e sure we did everything right from the get-go. You don't want to start this process and already mess up on step 1, and then get your application denied. Even if you do get denied, it's important to have someone like Mr. Kantor in your corner. He answered all of our questions and went out of his way to put a plan together for us. Not only that, I could tell that money takes a backseat to his genuine desire to help others. Now we know what steps we need to take and we feel much more confident that my dad will have the outcome he wants. I highly recommend retaining Mr. Kantor, you will not regret it.

Extremely Satisfied Client With a Complex Case

From the first intake call to the successful resolution of my case, Kantor and Kantor have been patience advocates for me. Dealing with a multitude of specialist in the medical field can be extremely difficult, especially when presenting with a rare and multifaceted disease. Stress about the uncert...ainty of my future definitely made my condition worse making for a very dark time. Glenn Kantor, Rhonda Harris Buckner and Noemi Cuevas alleviated all my fears and were honest with me while remaining extremely professional every step of the way. They always communicated in a timely manner no matter the question (and I had many!). I will never be able to thank this team enough and cried tears of joy and gratitude when hearing they won my case.

Satisfied lawyer

I am a disabled attorney who was a leader in my specialty before being stricken with blood cancer at age 52. In my practice, I regularly was asked to monitor and evaluate the work of other attorneys for my clients so I think I’m better than most clients at telling an outstanding lawyer from an averag...e one. After my cancer went into complete remission and my long-term disability insurance benefits were then denied while I was represented by another well-respected disability lawyer, Glenn Kantor and David Oswalt stepped in, cleaned up his mistakes, reversed the denial and sustained my benefits for another 13 years until age 65. My case was not an easy one and I wonder how many other attorneys would have possessed the skills and diligence to accomplish what the Kantor firm did for me. I would enthusiastically refer anyone needing disability insurance representation to the Kantor firm without reservation.

"Mr. Kantor has been my supervising attorney since I began practicing law. There is nobody on the planet more competent or knowledgeable about ERISA and bad faith insurance disputes. It is an honor and privilege to work for him."

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I consulted with Glenn on a long term disability issue for my client, and he was incredibly helpful. Glenn and his firm have a great reputation in the San Fernando Valley for good reason. Glenn honed in on a legal issue that helped my client receive several hundred thousand dollars, and without his guidance on this very technical issue, it would have been impossible to resolve. I give Glenn my highest endorsement and would encourage anyone with a benefits issue to use his firm."

"I don't write these things often. Glenn Kantor and his team are on anybody's short list for "best ERISA counsel" in California, and a slightly longer list for "best ERISA counsel" in the country. They are respected on both sides of the Bar, and in the eyes of the federal judiciary in California."
