BEST DECISION EVER!

As a 37 year old woman I never thought I would be in a situation where I would need a lawyer. Finding myself in this situation I was referred to Anthony Kalikas by a friend who had used him before. I was taking a leap but jumped right in and gave him a call. BEST DECISION EVER! Anthony answered ...every tiny question that I had, he walked me through the process and kept me informed and knowledgeable for throughout our year of working together. He made everything stress free and easy to understand. Anthony is a very kind person with your benefits in mind, he will push when he needs to and will let you know when to back down as well. I can't say enough great things about him and my experience with him as my lawyer. I know that if I'm ever in a situation where I need a lawyer again, I will be contacting Anthony Kalikas. I will recommend him to anyone in my life or family that would need a lawyer as well. If your in a situation where you need a lawyer, contact Anthony Kalikas, as far as I have experienced he is the best!

Wonderful human, wonderful lawyer

Anthony is exactly what you look for in a lawyer: someone who is intelligent, knowledgeable, empathetic, & that you immediately trust. I always felt as if he had my best interest at heart. Not only did he seek out a doctor to see me without health insurance, he then negotiated all of my bills (hospit...al, doctor, physical therapist) to reduce them as much as possible. I was able to focus on healing, both body & mind because I knew he would take care of the rest. His service was invaluable to me & I cannot recommend him enough.

For the people

I had an accident back in August 2018. Anthony is very knowledgeable. He would brainstorm to find the best solutions. He was caring and would always maintain the communication to keep you up to date. Anthony is honest with his work , takes the time to make sure you are understanding every step of the... way.

The BEST Lawyer EVER!!!

Mr. Kalikas is the Best Lawyer to have represent your claim!! He not only communicates well but also fights for what is right!!! He not only went out of his way for me and my family but his diligence is what paid off for us. Mr. Kalikas by far works hard to keep you satisfied as a Client. I will ...stand beside him any day in the Court Room as he knows his job and will prevail!! I recommend Mr. Kalikas to those whom are looking for a great successful Lawyer!

Be careful

I retained this attorney to defend me in a case involving a breach of contract for a lease agreement. He wasted a substantial amount of my money defending what other attorneys later said amounted to ridiculous defenses. His advice caused me harm, He was not responsive to my calls, and his office w...as no less than rude to me. More importantly, I later learned that he frequently sues his clients.

Replied last June 11, 2012

This client failed to disclose several important facts about his case. As such, he was charged a minimal retainer. After the attorney was retained, the client fell behind on his bill several thousand dollars. He not only refused to pay the amount owed, but also forced the attorney to seek relief from the court to withdraw from the case. He is also a convicted felon.

Wrongful death lawyer | May 25

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I endorse this lawyer's work. I worked with Anthony on a complicated wrongful death case, which was settled after multiple mediation meetings for one million dollars. His strategy and legal tactics were well thought through, and won the day for our clients. He will not be stopped or stymied by the opposition. He works both hard and smart. I would strongly recommend him for any personal injury or wrongful death matter. He was easy to work with and always courteous to the clients, who, he made sure, were always kept in the loop, and always knew what we were doing. Additionally, I have often relied upon his thoughts and analysis on cases I have handled alone."
