PERSONAL INJURY ATTORNEY

MICHAEL LONATI SR.

Personal Injury Attorneys Award trial lawyer

Since 1996, I’ve dedicated my legal career exclusively to helping injured individuals through personal injury and workers’ compensation cases. Over the years, my team and I have successfully resolved thousands of claims, recovering millions of dollars on behalf of our clients. Our practice is rooted in personal service, attention to detail, and results that matter.

Before entering the legal field, I earned a B.S. from Northeast Missouri State University and a Doctor of Chiropractic degree from Life Chiropractic College. I later went on to earn my Juris Doctor from Georgia State University College of Law. My unique background as both an attorney and a chiropractor gives me an in-depth understanding of the medical complexities that come with traumatic injuries. From interpreting medical records to understanding long-term treatment plans, I use this insight to maximize outcomes for my clients.

I’ve also served as a partner at Atlanta West Medical Center, working alongside a team of medical doctors to treat accident victims. To this day, I maintain an active chiropractic license and have been invited as a guest speaker at continuing education seminars for chiropractors, sharing guidance on how to navigate auto wreck cases within clinical practice.

When I’m not practicing law, I enjoy spending time outdoors—whether it's on the golf course, in a tree stand hunting, or out on the water fishing.

Whether you have been injured in an auto accident, motorcycle accident, trucking accident, injured on the job, or bitten by a dog, please call our office and let us help you!

Michael Lonati, Sr.

PERSONAL INJURY ATTORNEY

MICHAEL LONATI JR.

mike jr lonati - dallas personal injury lawyer georgia

The law has always been a part of my life. Long before earning my law degree, I worked alongside my father in his law office, doing everything from filing paperwork to helping where I can around the office. That early exposure sparked a passion for advocacy that still drives me today.

Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of helping thousands of people navigate their personal injury cases—most often victims of car wrecks, motorcycle collisions, and dog bites. My goal in every case is simple: to hold the irresponsible accountable for their actions and to fight for what my clients deserve.

I was born and raised in Lithia Springs, Georgia, and went on to play baseball at Reinhardt University in Waleska, Georgia, where I earned my degree in Business Administration in 2012. I later attended North Carolina Central University School of Law, graduating in 2015 with my Juris Doctor. While in law school, I earned a Pro Bono certificate from the North Carolina State Bar for my dedication to providing legal aid to underserved communities.

I’m licensed to practice in Georgia and in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Georgia. I’m also a Keenan Trial Institute Graduate and now serve as a faculty member, teaching the art and strategy of depositions. In recognition of my work, I’ve been honored as a National Trial Lawyers Top 40 Under 40 and earned an AV Preeminent rating from Martindale-Hubbell—an achievement that reflects the highest level of professional excellence.

Locally, I’ve stayed deeply involved in the legal community, having served as Secretary and then President of the Paulding County Bar Association from 2019 to 2022.

Outside the office, I’m a devoted husband and proud father to two amazing kids. My family and I attend Cedarcrest Church, where our faith keeps us grounded and connected to the community we serve.

Meet the Team

Tami Kelly

Director of Internal Operations / Sr. Paralegal

Hello, my name is Tami Kelly. I am married with a beautiful son and two bonus children.

Out of all the different areas of law I prefer personal injury as it is something new each day. A large part of my role here is to help our clients through this tough time by making sure they feel comfortable coming to us with any issue they are having. This can be a stressful time, and I am here to take that stress off our clients. I always strive to provide each client with the best service possible and reassure them we are here to help them every step of the way.

Unlike the bigger law firms, we are a very close-knit office. We like to show our clients they are more than just a number to us because they are family and we care about their needs.

Patricia Drury

Case Manager

Hello, I'm Tricia. I love helping and getting to know our clients here at Lonati Law Firm.

During football season, you'll catch me decked out in my Dallas Cowboys gear like it's my Sunday uniform. Win, lose, or tie, my loyalty to the Cowboys stays stronger than my grip on a cold one that I'm nursing. If I'm not yelling at the TV, I'm in the backyard grilling some steaks and playing referee with my three children and two fur babies.

When I get a chance to get away, you'll find me on St. Simon's Island basking in the sun with a rod in hand chasing sharks like it's Shark Week.

Jenna Anderson

Intake Specialist

Hi, my name is Jenna Anderson. I am married with four chickens, three cats, and two dogs.

I moved from Tennessee to Georgia six years ago with my husband, looking for a change. I entered the legal field and have loved it for nearly ten years.

I have focused on personal injury for the last six years and have enjoyed the experiences of helping people through their stressful and unknown times. I enjoy talking with our clients and being there to answer questions to ease their minds.

Whiskey

Chief Morale Officer

Whiskey is the heartbeat of the office and holds the esteemed title of Chief Morale Officer. A golden doodle with a golden soul (and a nose for dropped food), she brings tail wags, positive vibes, and the occasional desk nap to the firm.

Before joining the team, Whiskey spent her days chasing lizards and barking at squirrels in the backyard. But one day, she realized she was destined for more and traded in her backyard patrol for a corner office. With a deep desire to make a difference in people’s lives, she applied for the CMO position—and nailed the interview with one head tilt and a tail wag. Playful yet chill, Whiskey is happiest when she’s being petted, lounging between meetings, or chasing after her a ball. She makes unexpected office rounds, and while not every client expects to meet her, those who do are instantly won over and usually fall in love. While not licensed to practice law, she's an expert at listening with zero judgment.

When she’s not holding down the fort at the firm, you can find her catching up on naps, enjoying time with her little hooman brother and sister, as well as plotting her next great snack heist.

Whiskey reminds us that actions speak louder than words and sometimes the best support doesn't just come in the form of legal advice—but in the form of a fluffy friend who’s just happy to be present with you.
