The leading national Disability claims law firm

Kantor & Kantor LLP, the leading national Disability claims law firm, represented me in claiming STD, LTD and Chronic illness coverage. Glenn Kantor was professional and compassionate during a very hard time period. In addition, the firm went above and beyond throughout the application filing perio...d, guiding and supporting me until all claims were approved. Kantor's lawyers and paralegals are experts when it comes to Disability claims representation and I would not hesitate to strongly recommend them to anyone who have a claim with an insurance company.

Spectacular Service

We talked to several different firms before I made the choice to talk to Kantor & Kantor. My husband and I were having a hard time dealing with The Hartford and LTD denial. Mr Kantor spoke with us directly and told us how to handle the appeal letter. He was honest in telling us he did not think we ne...eded an attorney yet. He gave us guidelines for our letter and gave us suggestions on our steps to take. Sure enough, he was correct! The Hartford reinstated my husbands LTD payments within weeks of us sending the letter. I will definitely call Mr. Kantor to represent us in the future.

Exactly the person I needed to talk to

I was having a difficult time finding someone knowledgeable about disability and medical insurance and how our company and myself should approach pending disability. Then, Glenn called me and we spoke for several minutes and during that call I received excellent information, more than I could have p...ossibly imagined. Glenn was able to guide me through the issues of disability and how to go about dealing with the decisiion for me to go on permamnet disability. Then, he offered to review some of my policies to determine the best course of action. The time he spent with me was so valuable and his demeanor was so calming. I was certainly impressed, the say the least. I can highly recommend Glenn and his firm if you have any disability issues.

Client For Life (if needed)

I got a recommendation from a well connected person as to who to contact about my LTD case. I am so glad I did. Glenn Kantor helped us in a dark time dealing with my insurance company while also battling a debilitating illness. He has impressive knowledge and decades of experience in helping people w...ith disabilities. He returned calls/emails quickly, walked us through the process and put us at ease. He and his firm are the gold standard others should strive for. EXCELLENT attorney and EXCELLENT firm.

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.

"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."
