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... all of the insurance company's requests. Kantor and Kantor let us know their strategy and gave updates as needed. The case was resolved over and above our expectations much soon than we anticipated. We would highly recommend them.

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...ed. His attention to detail, critical review and constructive feedback were just what I needed to engage properly with the administrator of my claim. Thank you, Glenn, and Shannon, for the outstanding service that you provide.

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...y unique since CIGNA denied coverage for my Three-Level Artificial Disc Replacement in the lumbar section of my spine in Germany due to FDA’s stand of multi-level disc replacement as being an “unproven procedure”. I had to pay out of pocket to have my surgery done in Germany and Mr. Glen Kantor was able to work with me on my case against CIGNA thousands of miles away from the States. I would definitely recommend him and the firm to any of my family members or anyone who needs a good lawyer to get the job done.

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...lity he worked with me to make sure that I received the benefits available from the state of California and the employer's private disability policy. Later on he advised me how to go onto long term Social Security disability. He also intervened when the employer's disability insurance company threatened to terminate my benefits. As a result of his efforts, and those of his staff, I was able to collect disability benefits during the entire time I was unable to work. I am very pleased with the work that Glenn did for me in this matter.

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...d above the level of most lawyers with his efforts. More importantly, he is generous with his time and shows true heart in his work. I hope I will never need to litigate my insurance claim, but should my benefits ever be revoked, it is extremely reassuring to know I already have the best insurance lawyer on my team. Even if you've already spoken with other disability attorneys, I would definitely call Glenn to get his opinion about your situation. He's a true star.

"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."
