About Anthony C.
Anthony C. Gonsalves built a professional life that bridges two very different chapters. He earned a B.A. in political science from the University of California, Berkeley in 1989 and immediately entered the private sector as a shareholder and general manager for a family-owned entertainment business. Nearly three decades later he returned to formal legal training and received a J.D. from Humphreys College in 2017.
That return to law was followed by a series of positions that grounded him in courtroom practice and case administration. Early roles included work as a case manager for the Senior Law Project in 2014. He then worked in the San Joaquin County Collaborative Court in 2015, representing defendants in drug court. The next two years saw him as a case manager at the Law Offices of David E. Drivon and as a civil case manager at The Bogan Law Office, APC.
In 2019 he joined AG Law as a practicing lawyer and established his office in Modesto. His résumé shows steady movement from support and case-management roles into full-time practice. That path gave him time inside different parts of the system: interacting with clients, coordinating discovery, tracking filings, and preparing matters for court events.
Gonsalves’s memberships reflect the eclectic mix of work on his résumé. He holds memberships in the San Joaquin County Bar Association and the Stanislaus County Bar Association, both since 2017. He is also a member of the Consumer Attorneys of California and the American Agricultural Law Association, memberships he took up in 2016, and he is affiliated with an American Inns of Court chapter starting the same year.
Colleagues and clients will point to practical strengths rather than grand labels. His background combines municipal and county-level court experience with hands-on civil case management. The early management role in the private sector adds an operational perspective that shows through in how he runs a caseload and deals with administrative demands.
Today Gonsalves practices law in California from his Modesto office at AG Law. He handles civil litigation and consumer matters in state courts and works on cases that require both courtroom attention and detailed case preparation.
