Experienced Representation

Firm founder John M. Gantus has been voted "Glendale's Best" attorney repeatedly by readers of the Glendale News Press. He has served families and businesses in Southern California for over 25 years.

Settlement Skills

"You must motivate the opposing party," explains attorney John Gantus. "Although most people talk about wanting a quick resolution to their legal dispute, they usually won't settle unless they are faced with significant consequences."

"I call it the Gantus Gun to the Head Theory. In divorce, business lawsuits, or any other civil law matters, there must be a powerful reason, a gun to the head, so to speak, to encourage the other side to accept your terms. The key is to isolate an issue that will move the opposition toward a satisfactory settlement."

At John M. Gantus & Associates, we provide effective representation in divorce, probate, and other civil law disputes. If you are involved in a probate lawsuit or civil litigation, contact an experienced Glendale trial lawyer with persuasive negotiating skills.
