Thorough and Fact Based

I retained Kalka for assistance in fighting a protection order filed against me during a divorce case. Kalka was extremely thorough in gathering only the facts in the case. Though frustrated that I was having to spend time supplying information to defend myself against false allegations, Kalka was ...adamant in supplying her with all the information she would need to be successful in her defense. During our court appearance, Kalka arrived confident and prepared. She did an outstanding job of presenting the situation, stating the facts and providing all documentation to back up the facts, resulting in the case being dismissed. I am very grateful for her representation and would highly recommend her services to others.

Highly Recommended Attorney

After being married for 19 years I became a statistic and was scared for my future. I knew after my first meeting with Kalka that she was the one to represent me during this difficult time in my life. She is extremely knowledgeable in all areas of family law. The compassion she has for her clients ...is evident from day one. Kalka always put my best interests first and helped me keep my emotions in check. If you are in a custody battle or going through a divorce, I would highly recommend reaching out to Kalka for her expertise.

Tenacious and confident

My son has had custody battles and, as a family, we retained Kalka to resolve these issues. Kalka is a smart and feisty attorney. She pursued justice on our family’s behalf with vigor but she also gave honest assessments of the issues and foreseeable problems. She calls it as she sees it, which is ...a trait I happen to respect. She has worked hard on our behalf and her representation has served our family well. I reach out to her without hesitation. I would recommend Kalka in a heartbeat and have done so when people ask for referrals to a family law attorney in our area.

A Very Knowledgeable, Helpful, and Sympathetic Attorney

Kalka helped me get through the most painful year of my life getting a divorce. She was very direct and gave me choices throughout the whole process. She advised but didn't push me toward her choice. She was very sensitive to what I was going through and even talked with my family and counselor about... the best way to help me through some very rough times. Kalka became my friend as well as my attorney. I will always be grateful to her for helping me through the most difficult time of my life.
