Shelly Kalra

Managing Partner

I am a Family Law specialist with 15+ years of experience on a wide range of legal issues, from child custody to intricate financial matters, including self employment income and business valuations. After graduating from Queens University Law School and being called to the Upper Canada Law Society Bar in 2008, I developed my expertise working at prominent law firms in Toronto. When I’m not at the office, I am a wife and a mother of 2 rowdy boys who enjoys traveling the world and cooking up tasty meals.

I started Kalra Family Law because I wanted to help people through a difficult period in their lives. From the moment I take on a new case, I make sure we are being proactive, rather than being reactive. I am open and honest, and believe that working together and openly communicating is really important. Since I am detail oriented, I immediately start focusing on the facts surrounding the case, researching case precedents and jointly strategizing on potential approaches. My goal is to make sure we arrive at an outcome where the benefits outweigh the costs. At every step of the way, I re-evaluate our strategy to make sure we are always keeping the end goal in mind, and that we aren’t wasting time, energy and money. I always consider all of our options, from arriving at an out-of-court settlement using a mediator, to arguing a case in Court when necessary.

I enjoy working with people from diverse backgrounds and take pride in helping my clients succeed with fair resolutions and a path to a brighter and happier future. I would love to have an initial meeting to hear your story, get to know you and start working on the next chapter in your life
