Cantrell Astbury Kranz, P.A. is a boutique law firm focusing on non-compete and unfair competition disputes, employment law, and business disputes. We limit the number of clients we represent at any given time in lawsuits, and we focus on the firm’s core competencies.
As a firm hallmark, we prepare a detailed strategy upfront, always with an eye towards the client’s final objective and costs. We develop a deep understanding of the facts of each case, the relevant law, motivations driving each side, and map out a strategy to obtain the desired outcome as efficiently as possible. We don’t believe losing is ever an acceptable outcome. That statement is more than a mere platitude: we judge ourselves by our client’s outcomes and client reviews.
The firm’s clients range from Fortune 500 companies and middle-market and high growth companies to entrepreneurs and individual executives. We have substantial experience across many industries, including insurance, healthcare, automotive, manufacturing, technology and staffing/recruiting. The matters we are trusted to handle range from walking client’s through risk mitigation efforts to avoid a dispute, to handling litigation, trials and arbitrations.
To financially align our interests with our client’s, we offer a variety of fee arrangements that emphasize risk-sharing and efficiency. Some examples of fee arrangements we offer are: fixed fees, contingency fees, and a wide range of customized hybrid arrangements, in addition to standard hourly billing.

Wow! Best word for Michael and the team at Cantrell Schuette while handling my case. Michael was outstanding, listening to the issue of the case, providing options, talking through the pros/cons and then advising next steps. Couldn't have asked for a better lawyer - deep knowledge, quick to understand the nuances of a situation, and very personable. I admit I was resistant to getting a lawyer as it wasn't in my nature to be 'litigious', but I knew the company was treating me poorly. Thank you to Michael and the whole team for making this such a positive experience and landing exactly where I wanted to on a resolution! Would recommend to anyone!

Will Cantrell provided exceptional assistance with my employment matter. His communication was transparent and to the point, ensuring I always understood the process and next steps. Will’s professionalism and fair rates made a challenging situation much more manageable. I highly recommend Will to anyone seeking an attorney who is knowledgeable, straightforward, and truly dedicated to his clients’ best interests.

I would strongly advise against using Cantrell Schuette, P.A. for any legal services. Specifically, Attorney Donald C. Tyler completely mishandled my case, and my experience with him was nothing short of appalling. Not only did he overcharge for services, but he also chose to conduct business on my behalf without my knowledge or consent, which is completely unacceptable. Throughout the process, I was kept in the dark about key decisions and actions taken regarding my case. It became apparent that Attorney Tyler was acting without consulting me, and I had no input or control over what was happening. This lack of transparency was incredibly frustrating and left me feeling powerless. To make matters worse, when I received the bill, I was shocked to find that I was charged exorbitant fees for services that were either unnecessary or never even discussed with me. It felt like I was being taken advantage of, and I couldn't help but feel that this was part of a pattern of behavior. It is deeply concerning to see such unprofessionalism from an attorney who is supposed to represent clients’ best interests. I urge you to avoid this firm at all costs, especially Attorney Donald C. Tyler, if you value transparency, consent, and ethical practices. There are plenty of other reputable legal firms out there that will treat you with the respect and professionalism you deserve.

I have been connected with Will since 2018. Back in 2018, we were networking, and I was becoming familiar with the type of law Will and his firm specialize in. Fast forward to 2024 and as luck would have it, I had a need for thorough review and consultation regarding a non-compete agreement. Will's firm was efficient, thorough, and timely with my needs. I have been very satisfied with the services provided by Will and his firm and will continue to work with them into the future. I would highly recommend Will and his firm for any needs in the area of competition law (non-compete agreements, trade secret theft, trademark infringement, partner/member disputes, and certain contract disputes.
