Biography

Charles B. Calkins devotes a substantial portion of his practice to representing corporations, partnerships, limited partnerships, and limited liability corporations. He handles matters involving asset purchases, stock transfers, PA Liquor Control Board matters, probate and estate planning matters, and the buying and selling of commercial and residential real estate.

Charlie also represents clients regarding personal injury matters. For thirty years, Charlie represented insurance companies defending their insureds from claims by accident victims. His experience in defending these types of claims has assisted him in developing a substantial personal injury practice, representing clients who have sustained injuries stemming from motor vehicle accidents, slip and falls, dog bite cases, and premises liability cases. His clients are by referral only. His prior experience representing insurance companies makes him a well-versed adversary to insurance defense attorneys and claims adjusters due to his extensive prior experience.

Attorney Charlie Calkins represents a number of corporations, social clubs, and restaurants, including: Garrod Hydraulics, Inc.; Delta Packaging; Wecker’s Flooring; Ken Weaver Meats, Inc.; Clinton Industries, Inc.; The Pub and Restaurant in Gettysburg, PA; The Roosevelt Tavern; McCleary’s Irish Pub & Hotel, Inc.; Materials Recovery Technologies, Inc.; Gentzler & Smith Associates, Inc.; Nello Tire; King and Associates Physical Therapy, Inc.; Big Jim’s Seafood House; Range End Country Club, Inc.; the York County Restaurant and Tavern Association; The Railroad House; and Engles and Fahs, Inc.

Charlie is a graduate of Wyoming Seminary College Preparatory School. He received his undergraduate degree from Wilkes University and his Juris Doctorate from George Mason University School of Law. He is a member of the PA and York County Bar Associations and is admitted to the U.S. Middle and Eastern District Courts and the United States Supreme Court. For thirty years, Attorney Calkins played a key role in two major fundraisers for the York County Special Olympics. He has been serving on the Advisory Board for the York Citadel of the Salvation Army for twenty-five years and is currently serving his twelfth year as its Chairman.
