Glenn Kantor, Kantor & Kantor Absolutely the Best!

Glenn Kantor and his team at Kantor & Kantor came highly recommended to our family. Our situation came about quickly and urgently during COVID. Start to finish, Mr. Kantor and his top notch paralegal helped us submit the initial disability application within just two weeks. The likelihood of a sat...isfactory resolution seemed out of reach. However, not only were Mr. Kantor and his team able to help us procure first private company short term disability, then long term disability, but were also able to preserve my husband's life insurance policy from his employer without any further premium payments by us. They also had a first-rate recommendation for a social security attorney, Megan Ditolla, who was able to help secure the SSA benefits as well. These two firms work seamlessly together to get disabled persons the benefits they truly deserve, and all done with compassion, very quick response times to all questions and concerns and much needed humor sprinkled in. Their calm and empathetic demeanor offered me much needed emotional support and support to those I care about most. My husband, children and I are eternally grateful for their over-the-top 200% EXCELLENT service and I would highly recommend Glenn Kantor and his team at Kantor & Kantor without reservation to all who need these types of services. Three words: ABSOLUTELY THE BEST!!!!

Kantor & Kantor, LLP won my case

I can't say enough about Glenn Kantor and his staff members. I had the unfortunate circumstance of a group life policy issued by Cigna and owned by Life Insurance Company of North America not paying out on a family member's death. The first application I sent in was rejected as well as the appeal I... also did on my own. Both death benefit rejections were for bogus reasons. Fed up, I researched lawyers that practice this specialty law and retained Kantor & Kantor. Don't give it another thought, call them. Staff members Glen, Sally, Sarah and Stacy won for me and my family. Thank you.

Will Fight for You!

When the life insurance company declined my claim due to an alleged clerical error, I thought that all hope was lost. I was initially going to give up, but wisely chose to hire an attorney. After interviewing several, I made the decision to hire Glenn Kantor. He did an outstanding job representing me..., and consequently, I was awarded the benefit as my mother had originally intended. The best way to describe it, is that Glenn fought for me. He was always accessible and responded to questions, and took the time to explain the situation. In summary, I felt that he cared about me as a client. I highly recommend Glenn and his firm. I do not typically write reviews, but feel it is warranted in this case.

Excellent, Experienced, Professional

I lost my husband suddenly to a heart attack, he was only 49 years old. After submitting my claim for his life insurance it was denied. After doing some investigation of my own I knew something was not right and that I needed to seek representation. I reached out to several local firms in my surr...ounding area, only to be rejected and told I didn’t have a case. During this time I lost everything that my husband and I had built together due to the denial of the claim. I held fast to the strong feeling that if I could find a firm that would be willing to look deeper into my case, they would find what I had already suspected, which was mismanagement of my husbands life insurance by his employer and the life insurance company offered by this employer. After doing some research online, I found the law firm of Kantor and Kantor. I filled out the no-cost consultation online and heard back quickly. Glenn Kantor accepted my case when other lawyers rejected it, stating I didn't have one. Throughout the course of his representation he communicated with me exceptionally well by either email or phone calls. I am extremely pleased with the fast results Glenn Kantor was able to achieve during the mediation process, my case was settle that day. With this settlement I have been able to purchase another home for my daughter and I. I would without hesitation recommend Glenn Kantor and Kantor and Kantor law firm. I would strongly encourage you to reach out to Kantor and Kantor and tell them your story and see if they can help!

The "A" team

My review of the law firm Kantor & Kantor, LLP is a 10+. They are very caring which comes across on the first phone call to them. Theresa was our first introduction to the firm and she is wonderful. She knew exactly what information we needed to send in for review by a lawyer and upon receipt she ...directed us to Mr. Glen Kantor. He listened carefully to our story and agreed to handle the case. We were dealing with our life insurance company and a waiver of premium for disability issue. Between he and another lawyer in the firm, Mr. Brent Brehm who went to bat for me and the issue was resolved successfully. What a team! I highly recommend them to anyone that is having insurance issues.

"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."
