Will Harrison was born and raised in Florida. He attended the University of South Florida in Tampa, where he majored in philosophy with a minor in psychology. This choice of curriculum was based on Will’s affinity for logic and his desire to achieve a deep understanding of human nature. The knowledge that he acquired during his time at USF informs his approach to family law practice to this day.. After graduating with honors from USF, Will moved to Temecula, California to get married and start a life together with his wife. He spent a few years working in commission sales, which honed his capacity for persuasion and motivated him to learn how to interact with and relate to people from all walks of life. However, Will knew that his dream since childhood was to become an attorney. Thus, after acclimating to his new life thousands of miles away from where he grew up, he knew it was time to realize that dream. To that end, Will accepted an offer of admission with a generous scholarship to the Sandra Day O’Connor College of Law at Arizona State University. During his last semester, he worked as an extern for a Phoenix insurance defense firm. While at ASU, Will dedicated himself to learning as much as he could from the school’s extraordinarily knowledgeable professors. This included taking a course in family law taught by Judge Bruce Cohen, Presiding Judge of the Family Department of the Maricopa County Superior Court and one of Will’s favorite professors.. After earning his Juris Doctor degree, Will worked for a firm in Mesa. He initially worked as a criminal law clerk, but eventually transferred to the family law department. After working on family law cases and communicating with family law clients, Will knew that he found a practice area to which he could dedicate his legal career. His exposure to criminal law gave him valuable experience to prepare him for cases wherein the two practice areas intersect. However, through the time he spent working with family law clients, he found his most powerful source of motivation: his passion for guiding clients through the most tumultuous time of their lives.. That passion led Will to join Cantor Law Group, where providing clients with that guidance is central to the firm’s mission. Will thrives on complexity, whether that complexity derives from issues of property division, custody, or both. He dedicates himself to outsmarting and outworking the other side. At the same time, Will understands the emotional nuances of a family law matter and always keeps that in mind when interacting with and fighting for his clients.. In his free time, Will enjoys spending time with his wife, their dog Penny, and their cat Mooze.

My picture: When I'm not working you will find me in the desert, even in the summer (I just start earlier). Lawyer is what I do, it's not who I am, and if you are looking for a lawyer who has had and has a real life, contact me. I have done hard work my whole life, first helping my dad with house projects and doing a lot of jobs since I was 15 years old, washing dishes and bartending, cutting grass and shoveling snow (I grew up in a small New York town), digging ditches and laying tile, and delivering and sorting mail 2 1/2 years with the USPS. I was even a soccer referee for 9 years so I know what it's like to have players, coaches, and parents from BOTH teams disagree with me. I know what it's like to work hard, I get it. I always learn something new every day. I can't respond to complaints from former clients I don't know after almost 41 years I have found that the best way for you to decide if I'm the right lawyer for you is for us to meet and talk. I work by myself, so no staff to get between us, and you will hear from me by phone or text or e-mail when I represent you. I will do everything I can to get you what the workers' compensation laws say you should get. I can't get you anything more, and a lawyer who says he or she can is not telling the truth - I like to be in court and unlike some lawyers who don't like to be or just aren't that good in a hearing, I will not settle your case just to get it over with and I will take your case as far as we can go with it. I will always tell you my truth about your claim. So, if you like what you know about me from here, call and let's talk about you. The first couple of calls are free, I'm the boss and don't need to ask anyone else about fees, and my job is to make your life better. Thanks
