David Cantor and his team at DM Cantor were a powerful voice for our family during a time when we felt unheard and overwhelmed. Our son was wrongfully portrayed as the aggressor after defending himself against a group attack, but David Cantor stepped in with unmatched legal expertise and a fierce commitment to justice. He meticulously dismantled false narratives, presented undeniable evidence, and gave us the representation we desperately needed to be heard in the justice system. If you are currently experiencing a situation where the best legal defense is necessary , stop looking and go with Dm Cantor. You will not regret it. Their superior skill, tenacious advocacy and willingness too fight for you with integrity and precision is your best option.

David Michael Cantors staff of highly respected attorneys have handled two separate cases for me. One, a feloney DUI and the other a license revocation. David Maletta was the attorney that handled my cases for Mr. Cantor. In the feloney case the end result was a reduction to misdemeaner and 3 days in jail vs. a feloney and fOUR MONTHS MINIMUM in prison. The MVD refused to allow me my drivers license after three years revocation Mr. Maletta got me the green light to get it back in less than two

He was on the take. My BAC was actually lower than Tempe PD reported. Their own lawyer who handled my case told me I had a malpractice case against the firm. They had been bribed. It was a DUI case which is not listed in the legal issue list.
