About

I have decades of experience winning life, health, disability and property insurance cases. I look forward to doing the same for you.I worked as a waitress, office manager, book store clerk, messenger, and nanny to put myself through college and law school at the University of Chicago. For more than a decade after, I worked at some of the top law firms in the country, litigating bet-the-company cases, including high value life, health, property and disability insurance claims. Eventually, I realized that I like insurance cases, and I like helping people.  Now I use my knowledge of the inner workings of insurance companies to help insureds navigate these complex systems. While insurance claims are business decisions to the insurance companies, denials can change the life of the person who doesn't get the benefits they are owed. Your legal issues will be unique, and you deserve an attorney who will recognize that and give every case the attention and analysis it deserves.  I have sued most of the large insurers in the country, including Unum, MetLife, Northwest Mutual, Life Insurance Company of America, Hartford, Reliance Standard, Prudential, Farmers, State Farm, CSAA, FAIR Plan, and many others, under both ERISA and state bad faith law.  I have been named "AV Preeminent" by Martindale Hubbell, which rates attorneys through peer review by querying judges and lawyers nationwide to identify attorneys "ranked at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal expertise, communication skills, and ethical standards by their peers." But perhaps most importantly, I realize that the litigation is about YOU, and righting a wrong against you.I am admitted to the bar in California, Oregon, Washington, Nevada and Arizona, and can help you with your insurance issues throughout the west.

First of all, we won a big settlement! More importantly, Stacy and her team kept me informed regarding the case status, showed great compassion and instilled confidence. All this during a time where I was so very overwhelmed with grief and generally feeling pretty beat up. I could not have hoped for a better outcome.

Stacy is great. Her emails kept me abreast of every thing that was happening. Her explanations of things put my reservations at rest. Stacy is wonderful. I was lucky to get this attorney. Stacy was highly rated on the internet. My wife found the firm on the internet. Stacy is highly recommended. Very Highly.

Kantor and Kantor and specifically Stacy helped me with my long-term disability case. After fighting with the insurance company on my own, I was exhausted and frustrated. After the very first conversation with Stacy, I knew I could rest easy and I was in good hands. She handled everything with the insurance company and negotiated an excellent settlement for me that gave me financial but also mostly emotional peace of mind. I firmly believe without a doubt that she was the best attorney for the job. She is exceptionally knowledgeable, matter of fact, friendly, she responds quickly, explains things thoroughly, and she is fearless. She will file in court if needed, and not back down. She really advocates for the client. Glenn Kantor was also in our mediations and was fabulous, but Stacy did the heavy lifting. She did the initial evaluation of my case, saw the value and the wrong that had been done and fought for my case as if it were here own, while of course always leaving me the choices to make because it was my case. She cares a LOT. She always wanted me to make informed decisions, and she always supported the decisions that I made. She and this firm are believers in taking care of the client and it showed at all times. There is nothing I can say that would ever begin to do justice to the wonderful job Stacy and Glenn did to settle my case. They really go above and beyond, and I would highly recommend Stacy and Kantor and Kantor to anyone struggling with disability insurance issues.

Stacy is extremely efficient and responsive to my frequent questions. She works seamlessly with a team of well seasoned experts in insurance law. We are most grateful to have her guidance during the entire process from day one to finish.

In a difficult LTD case, with complicating factors, Stacy fought hard to get me the best possible outcome. I was wrongly denied benefits by my LTD carrier and the way the LTD plan was written was highly unfavorable in my circumstances. Stacy is very knowledgeable about these kinds of difficult cases and was strategic about how to best resolve the case. She listened to my concerns about how the insurer and employer were handling my case and looked for ways to advocate for my position. The documents she drafted were very well written and she was great to talk to about my case. I highly recommend Stacy Tucker.
