About Anmol Kataruka

Anmol Kataruka is a family lawyer at Gelman & Associates who handles high-conflict separations: files involving domestic abuse, substance abuse or parental alienation, spouses with narcissistic traits, and complicated finances, whether that means assets abroad or a self-employed spouse's income hidden in business structures. Anmol has professional training on narcissism and narcissistic abuse, along with experience handling separations from a narcissistic spouse. Anmol's grounding in arbitration and mediation also shapes the work, steering it toward settlement.

Family law was a deliberate choice. Anmol finds real satisfaction in guiding people through one of the hardest stretches of their lives and helping them get a fresh start. Before coming to Gelman & Associates, Anmol practised mainly family law at another firm, with some real estate, immigration and corporate work mixed in.

Anmol earned a Master of Laws at York University's Osgoode Hall, finishing at the head of the class, after taking first class honours with distinction in a first law degree. One of Anmol's family files also produced a reported decision on who keeps the dogs when a couple splits up.

Away from work, Anmol volunteers at a local animal shelter and hikes Ontario's provincial parks, adding stamps to an Ontario Parks Passport along the way. Time with family and trying new cuisines at local restaurants round things out. Anmol speaks Hindi, Punjabi, Urdu and Bengali.

    A hard-fought dispute between separating spouses Ronald Coates and Paula Dickson over their two black Labs, Jazz and Jetta, with Anmol acting for the applicant, Ronald Coates. Justice Baltman found the dogs were jointly owned, but because the couple couldn't share them, divided them: Jazz went to Paula Dickson, who particularly valued that dog's protective qualities, and Jetta went to Anmol's client, Ronald Coates.
