Michael James Kalanta

Mr. Kalanta takes the time to learn about the details that surround your situation and provides fair, honest, and objective advice in times when it may be hard to see things rationally yourself. He is compassionate, caring, and trustworthy. He represented me in my custody case and fought to obtain a ...parenting plan that would keep my child safe & also petitioned the courts for deadlines/resolutions that were both respectful of my time, needs, and protecting my child's welfare. When I ended up needing emergency orders to further protect my child later on, I called upon Mr. Kalanta once again and he did an amazing job once again. He was my attorney from early-2017 to early-2018 and again in mid-2019. I would highly recommend him to anyone who needs to protect their child, he will fight for your child and provide you with peace of mind. If he can do that I am confident he can provide the best in any case. I am thankful to have had such a stellar attorney in my corner. If the need arose again, I wouldn't hesitate to rehire him yet again.

I was referred to Michael Kalanta by a relative as I was addressing custody and other support issues. Michael Kalanta is very professional and truly an excellent lawyer. He assisted me with child custody and support issues as well. Because he represented me, I was able to receive the financial s...upport that was due to me, and the child custody outcome was a success as well. The staff at the Kalanta office provided superior service through it all. They are all very courteous and professional. If you are looking for an excellent lawyer with great staff, the Kalanta Law Office is the way to go!!

Being a father and fighting the stereotypes that fathers never get their children when it comes to fighting the court... I was relieved the very first meeting with Mr. Kalanta. Very professional and he knew strategies and connections like a lawyer should when it comes to fighting for the best interes...t for your child. Hiring Mr. Kalanta put my fears to rest, knowing I have a very respected lawyer in the court and ultimately my respect as well. He was very detailed in what I needed and what I should be doing to have a better chance when it comes to such a stressful situation. Mr. Kalanta really made me feel more positive and was able to handle the ordeal much better, keeping me focused for my child. I was quite impressed with his knowledge and staff's diversified information. To put it in perspective: I have had 2 lawyers before and about 4 consultations before contacting Mr. Kalanta and they do not compare. Truly powerful and aggressive, he helped me put so much legal pressure for a result I was truly satisfied with. I will always recommended anyone to Mr. Kalanta!

I had the privilege of retaining Mr. Kalanta on two separate occasions to modify spousal support. After retaining two different family law attorneys in the past, I was left extremely frustrated with the results. Those attorneys were clearly only there for the money. Then God put Mr. Kalanta in my pa...th. He saw the injustice that was going on with my case and took me on immediately. Mr. Kalanta is extremely well versed in Family Law and the Case Law which applies. The first court appearance he had my ex-wife's attorney's head spinning in the court room as he did circles around her. He was able to reduce my alimony substantially and provide me with some financial relief. Approximately one year later I retained Mr. Kalanta once again. This time he was able to get alimony terminated without even going to court. He is extremely sensitive to his clients needs and has a bull dog mentality in the courtroom. He has a strong Christian belief which I really appreciated. The care and concern he and his staff had for me was paramount. For the first time I felt I truly had someone on my side. Mr. Kalanta has my highest recommendations to anyone who needs the BEST Family Law Attorney. Thank you Mr. Kalanta and God bless you.
