Last year i was arrested for DUI and i had absolutely no idea what to do or where i should turn, i contacted 4 other lawyers and knew from the first 3 min. he was the one i needed. He was real and honest, everyone else told me they could beat my case although thats what i wanted to hear, i also wanted someone to be honest with me not just coddle me. David told me what i was looking at if i did loose my case. He didnt blow my head up with an idea that i might win. He prepared me for the worst of my situation. And im happy to say at the end he won my case. And did more than what he prepared me for. David went out of his way in my eyes not only did he give me my life back but he also gave me comfort for the time my case was going on. I didnt have to worry about dates and dealing with everything on my own. I am very greatful to David and what he did for me. thanks again

I cannot say enough about the great job that David A. Black did for me. I was referred to him by a friend of mine that had worked with him in the past. From the beginning he NEVER over promised anything (which drives me insane). He was straight forward with me and kept me well informed on each development. I always appreciate complete honesty, even if it is bad news. Ultimately, after some great lawyering, he got me a FANTASTIC deal and everything played out exactly as we had hoped it would. After other horror stories i've heard, I'm glad to say that working with David was a pleasure. If you hire him, you will know from the beginning that you have someone that cares about your case and truly wants to help you out. NOT TO MENTION HE'S INCREDIBLY FAIR PRICED. I have referred him to numerous friends and family since my case and have yet to hear anything but stellar reviews.

I am so pleased that David A. Black was able to help us. Not only did he help my brother from a burglary charge but he helped my husband and daughter (victims) of a DUI hit and ran. We are grateful for the level of response and detail he provided. He is absolutely the most communicative lawyer I have ever encountered, we were always able to reach him one way or another. He did a wonderful job, and I would highly recommend him!! Thank you David.

Horrible I paid $5000.00 I got a urinating in public charge. They set me up with a attorney. She didn't show up to court once. A different court date she canceled the court date and didn't notify me so I showed up stressed out and wasted my day I called off work for. I call to speak with David Michael Cantor I felt my attorney was not representing me or doing her job I was told by the managing attorney David J. Maletta I was not allowed to speak with David Michael Cantor he only deals with the big cases I would need to spend 10's of thousands of dollars for him to hear me out. Then my attorney quit mid-case I felt horrible. They assigned Elizabeth Mullins to my case so here I am sitting in her corner office hoping and praying she goes to court I lose $5000.00. I get the same exact charge I would have without a attorney. I think if you put your name on your business paying clients should have the ability to speak with you. Go somewhere else.

David helped us quickly resolve a drug parerphernalia charge which was ultimately dismissed. We found him to be very knowledgeable, responsive and highly professional. His rates are very fair, he relates well with college students and I would highly recommend him to others seeking legal counsel for similar legal issues.

We had two disputes going on at the same time. The first dispute was a criminal dispute which was resolved by a letter from Cantor law Group which pointed out the ridiculousness of the charges which were dropped. The second was a partition for dissolution of marriage with several charges of theft and abuse. All of the charges were false and unfounded. The Lawyer in the Marriage case let the Judge tell him and we overheard, ( I have already made up my mind on how I am going to rule on this case but you go in and see if you can come to a settlement) Now how can a judge do his job if he has not heard both sides of the dispute. How can Jarred stand their and let this go on. Could it be that even though from the outside it looked like Pam was wrong when in reality she did nothing wrong. Do we want to judge or do we want to see justice done . Pam was willing to take a lie detector test to prove that all the accusations were false. So on the second, Pam was not given a fair chance to see justice given to her. The lawyers that took the case after Jarred left treated Pam as poorly as the Judge, just as if she was wrong and they had to defend her. Did they prejudge her to. Now she is on her own trying to right all the wrongs, with no money and no support and yes it was his money, but it was his doing that brought all this to him. Pam could have gone to prison for several years had she not pulled that money out of her account. Now after over $35000.00 she is on her own.I think that justice could still be done here if this law group would step up to the plate. Their is still $225000.00 on hold which could be used for her defense. All we need is some truth here and this could end like God would have it end.

David represented me when I had been charged with reckless endangerment involving excessive speed on a motorcycle. Initially I tried working with a public defender but found that I couldn't live with the plea bargain the public defender and district attorney's office were considering. I found David on his website and after talking to him on the phone made an appointment to talk with him about representing me. David was very accessible, took his time, and explained my options carefully and clearly. As a former prosecutor he understood the inner workings of the justice system in Phoenix and was able to help me understand my realities - what was possible, what was likely, and what was unlikely. David told me exactly what he believed he could accomplish for me which was a probationary period and terms I could live with and a real possibility that I could avoid a permanent felony on my record. His fees were reasonable.d and also manageable. David worked quickly on my case, did exactly what he said he would do and when there were "red tape" issues in the D.A.'s office he took care of those quickly. David was always available when I called or got back to me as soon as possible. I felt like he really cared about me and my future, He was able to negotiate a very fair and satisfactory probationary period for me. I would recommend him to anyone without reservation.

I was facing very serious charges that if successfully prosecuted would have permanently affected my ability to provide for my family and participate in society as a citizen with full civil rights. I initially was unsatisfied with the different attorneys I interviewed, some were very greasy and unprofessional, others were ambitious but clearly lacked the support staff and experience I felt was required. Of course by this time with so much on the line I had done my own homework and had a decent understanding of what I was facing and the process involved so being fluffed wasn't at all appealing to me. I eventually had a interview with attorney David Maletta and I immediately felt reassured. He was obviously a very experienced /knowledgeable attorney and we had a frank but encouraging discussion covering specifics about the process. He even knew specifics about a officer involved in my case right off the top of his head which was very impressive. Attorney Christine Whalin from the very beginning of the pretrial hearing process was absolutely in her element. She was extremely organized, lucid and a excruciatingly methodical litigator. Not once during the hearings did she lose control of the narrative. At one point I almost felt bad for the prosecutor. Almost. It was clear to me that Christine loves being in court so when the decision on a motion came back to dismiss I wasn't caught off guard but relieved beyond explanation nonetheless. I cant thank the Law offices of David Michael Cantor enough. Especially Christine Whalin for all of her hard work and commitment. Public defense was never an option, so it came down to choosing between attorneys with no support staff or resources to save a few bucks or a full service firm with talented attorneys and extensive resources. With so much on the line the decision was a no brainer. I recommend this firm to anyone serious about having representation that prosecutors and judges respect.

My experience with the Cantor law group was nothing less than wonderful. In a time of great worrie and anxiety my lawyer Cindy Castillo helped me through every step of the way. I was blown away by the outcome of my case. Cindy and the Cantor law firm were true proffesionals and worth every penny. I not only enjoyed having Mrs. Castillo as my lawyer, I loved having her by my side. You are definately making the right choice when you use the Cantor law group. I have been blessed and that is all thanks to the hard work of Cindy Castillo and the Cantor law group.

HE DID HIS JOB AND DEFENDED ME AS IF HE WAS DEFENDING HIMSELF BY THAT I MEAN HE CARES WHAT HAPPENS TO HIS CLIENTS AND MAKES YOU FEEL EXTREMLY COMFORTABLE IN PUTTTING YOUR LIFE IN HIS HANDS. HE FIGHTS FOR YOU AS IF HE IS FIGHTING FOR HIS OWN LIFE AND IS EXTREMELY KNOWLEDGEABLE IN THE LAW.HE PUTS YOU AT EASE WHEN YOU SPEAK TO HIM BECAUSE WHEN YOUR CHARGED WITH A CRIME IT CAN BE SCARY BUT HE IS EASY TO PUT YOUR TRUST IN WITH HIS PROFESIONAL APPEARANCE AND MANOR OF HANDELING YOUR CASE. I WOULD REUSE HIM AND HIGHLY RECOMEND HIM TO EVERYBODY I KNOW I HAVE USED OTHER LAWYERS INTHE PAST WHO WERE GOOD BUT DIDNT MAKE ME FEEL AS IF THEY CARED AS MUCH AS DAVID DID HE DEFINATLY DOES HIS JOB TO THE FULEST AND ALWAYS RETURNS CALLS PROMPTLY UNLIKE OTHER ATTORNEYS THAT TAKE THERE TIME CALLING BACK IF THEY EVEN DO. PLUS HE ANSWERS HIS PHONE AT ALL TIMES OF DAY OR NIGHT BECAUSE YOU NEVER KNOW WHEN YOU WILL NEED ADVICE HE COMES HIGHLY RECOMENDED BY ME.
