Paralegals: saving attorneys from drafting motions based on incomplete text since forever

Family law clients are going through a difficult time in their lives. They often communicate at 2:00 a.m., in incomplete text chains, across platforms, on video, during exchanges, and after their hours-long meeting with the attorney. At Cantor Law Group, we understand that attorneys are great at arguing legal issues, but they rely on paralegals to communicate with the clients, decode the 3 a.m. voicemails, organize the endless screenshots, and keep it all organized for the client’s benefit. We know that paralegals are the unsung heroes of family law. While we win, you make it look easy.

That is why, at Cantor Law Group, our paralegals are an integral part of the team. We treat our paralegals like the professionals they are, and value their opinions and expertise. You won’t hear phrases like “because I’m the attorney” or “just draft the motion.” Our paralegals work in tandem with their assigned attorney at the heart of complex custody disputes, financial disclosures, and property division cases- and their work makes a measurable difference for our clients. Our paralegals are supported by a team of administrative assistants who handle calendaring, mail, minute entries, and transmittals, so they can focus on working the case and growing their legal acumen. Paralegals need support too, and we ensure they are provided with it. 

Cantor Law Group is Arizona’s leading trial-focused family law firm. We handle high-stakes, complex cases that demand creativity, tenacity, and profound legal knowledge. Our team collaborates daily, combining expertise and insight to deliver the best outcomes for clients. We prioritize results over ego, mentorship over hierarchy, and excellence over shortcuts. Our cases challenge us, our team supports one another relentlessly, and our wins are celebrated loudly. At Cantor, your work will matter every single day.

Many choose to, while others prefer the panoramic views of the Phoenix skyline from our penthouse suite and multiple floors in the prestigious Two Renaissance Tower Downtown, where employees enjoy endless snacks, drinks, employee lounges, and restaurants in the building and within walking distance. 

- Mentorship: Cantor Law Group invests in mentorship and strategy sessions to make you a better paralegal, not a busier one. Our paralegals receive weekly training sessions and daily mentorship in a collaborative environment. We offer endless opportunities for growth and expansion into more complex areas of the law. Our paralegals help one another, provide coverage, collaborate on cases, enjoy family law, and help clients succeed. 

- One-on-One Collaboration: Tired of being stretched between multiple attorneys and never-ending administrative tasks? As a paralegal at Cantor Law Group, you’ll work exclusively with one attorney, collaborating closely on every case to provide support, solve problems, and contribute to meaningful outcomes together.
