Glenn Kantor, founding partner of Kantor & Kantor in Northridge, CA, oversees one of the largest ERISA law firms in the country. The firm focuses primarily on helping employees obtain wrongfully denied insurance benefits for disability, health, long-term care and life insurance policies under the Employees Retirement Income Security Act, but also works with people denied benefits under individual policies.
For more than 20 years, Kantor has represented people with disabilities such as multiple sclerosis, lupus, Crohn's Disease, Fibromyalgia, Epstein Bar, HIV/AIDS, Parkinson’s Disease, Alzheimer’s, cancer, spine and back injuries, cardiac disease, depression, drug and alcohol addiction and a host of other conditions against insurance companies who have wrongfully denied health, disability or long-term care benefits. He has also helped family members obtain wrongfully withheld life insurance benefits in situations regarding DUI deaths, domestic partnerships, failure to disclose, and improper enrollment, among other issues.
In 2011, Kantor worked with California Insurance Commissioner Dave Jones to help pass Insurance Code section , a law that bans “discretionary clauses” in insurance contracts and prevents disability insurance companies from inserting language into polices that gives them discretion to deny claims.

highly recommended
Our experience with the Law Firm of Kantor and Kantor was exceptional. Every member of the team (Shannon, Brent, and Glenn) treated us with professionalism and courtesy. This was for my husband who had gone through the appeals process and was still denied reinstatement benefits after complying with...

Outstanding Advisor and Attorney for Disability
Glenn is warm and welcoming. He exudes service and support. I have found this to be true from all employees with whom I've been in contact at Kantor and Kantor, LLC. Glenn helped advise me on how best to file my Longterm Disability Claim as I approached the 2-year period after having become disabl...

Great lawyer
Mr. Glen Kantor and his firm are very thorough and responsive. It was very easy to work with him throughout my case without any hiccups or delay. I provided the information and the documents in the beginning which he required and he did the rest of the work until the end of my case. My case was ver...

Glenn handled my disability case in a professional and competent manner, with great results.
I first met Glenn when I was considering disability due to health concerns that were preventing me from doing my job. He carefully reviewed my situation, including my employer's disability policy, before advising me on the feasibility of obtaining disability benefits. Once I decided to go on disabi...

Glenn is the best disability/ERISA attorney!
Glenn is extremely knowledgeable about both insurance/disability law and my specific condition, multiple sclerosis. Fortunately, my LTD carrier is paying me full benefits, thanks in no small part to Glenn and his team. As a former attorney myself, I can speak with confidence that Glenn goes over an...
"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."
"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."
"I highly endorse Glenn Kantor based on his experience and expertise in litigating disability insurance matters."
