About Anthony
Biography
Attorney Tony Kalka graduated with his Bachelor of Science degree in both business and marketing from Clemson University in 1999. After leaving Clemson, he went to Mercer University – Walter F. George School of Law, where he later graduated with his Juris Doctor in 2002.
After graduating from law school, Attorney Kalka went to work for one of the largest defense law firms in the entire southeast as an insurance company lawyer. Working for nearly half a decade at this particular firm gave him the upper hand on the playing field against insurance companies.
Attorney Kalka is now able to utilize his previous experience as a tool in the courtroom. Anticipating each move they will make, he has the ability to avoid common mistakes some lawyers make when fighting against large insurance providers. This can prove to be a particularly strong advantage to any personal injury client.
Pursuing justice and fair compensation has allowed him membership into the Georgia Trial Lawyers Association, the Lawyers Club of Atlanta and the Southern Trial Lawyers Association. As a Co-Chair of the Georgia Trial Lawyer Annual Convention board, he contributes his time as a frequent lecturer speaking on various aspects of trial advocacy and the necessary skills that are needed in trial cases.
Less than 2.5% of all the lawyers in Georgia are chosen to be a part of Georgia's Super Lawyers® by their legal peers in the field who have seen their work in action. The National Trial Lawyers: Top 40 Under 40 is an invitation-only, professional association comprised of America's top young trial attorneys. Furthermore, an invitation of membership is extended exclusively to those individuals who meet stringent qualifications, who demonstrate superior leadership skills, and who exert passion and personal conviction as a young trial attorney.

Good representation for my injuries
In 2012 I had a car accident where the other driver ran a red light and hit me on my drivers side. My neck was fractured and my elbow and bladder were damaged. My daughter found Tony who was able to represent me well. Tony, thank you for your services.

Awesome!

Fantastic Attorney
Tony Kalka is an excellent attorney, and was a huge help to me after my car was hit by a commercial tractor trailer. I was injured, had to go to physical therapy for several months, and incurred some out of pocket costs that the trucking company was unwilling to pay. Tony worked diligently on my case...
