About Kalra Family Law

Kalra Family Law is a small family law firm established in 2018 and based in downtown Toronto, with a second office in Oakville. The practice was founded by Shelly Kalra, who earned an LL.B. from Queen's University in 2006 and was called to the Bar in Ontario in 2007 after gaining experience at other Toronto law firms. The firm has since grown to include a partner and several associate lawyers, supported by senior law clerks and a legal assistant.

The firm concentrates entirely on family law: divorce and separation, spousal and child support, decision-making (custody) and parenting time, home and business property division, and prenuptial and cohabitation agreements. It also drafts wills and offers family mediation as an alternative to litigation. A free online calculator on its site estimates support using the Federal Child Support Guidelines and the Spousal Support Advisory Guidelines. Both offices operate inside Wolf Law Chambers, a shared professional office building where lawyers practice independently under their own corporations while sharing reception and meeting space.

The neighbourhood

The firm's Toronto office sits at 55 University Avenue, at the northeast corner of University Avenue and Wellington Street in the financial district. The building connects to the University subway line at St. Andrew station and to the underground PATH network, which makes it a workable stop for clients coming in from across the Greater Toronto Area rather than only the immediate downtown core.

The Oakville office is at 277 Lakeshore Road East, on the corner of Lakeshore Road and Trafalgar Road in downtown Oakville, close to the waterfront. It's a smaller, secondary location: both Toronto and Oakville sit inside Wolf Law Chambers buildings, a co-location setup where several independent legal practices share office space and meeting rooms rather than each firm holding its own dedicated floor.

Frequently asked questions

Does Kalra Family Law handle divorce cases that end up in court, or only uncontested ones?
The firm handles both. It offers a fixed fee of $2,000, including court disbursements, for an uncontested divorce, and it also represents clients through contested proceedings when a matter doesn't settle.
Can Kalra Family Law help with a parenting or custody dispute?
Yes. The firm works on what courts now call decision-making responsibility (previously known as custody) and parenting time, covering major decisions like education, religion, and medical care as well as the day to day schedule.
Does the firm offer mediation instead of going to court?
Kalra Family Law offers family mediation as a voluntary, confidential alternative to litigation, covering parenting arrangements, support, and property division so a couple can reach an agreement collaboratively.
Is there a free consultation before I retain the firm?
The firm offers a free initial consultation that can be booked online.
Can I estimate how much child or spousal support I might owe or receive before meeting with a lawyer?
The firm's website includes a free calculator that estimates child support under the Federal Child Support Guidelines and spousal support under the Spousal Support Advisory Guidelines. It's meant as a starting point, not a substitute for legal advice.
Where are Kalra Family Law's offices, and does the firm serve clients outside Toronto and Oakville?
The firm's main office is in downtown Toronto at 55 University Avenue, with a second office in downtown Oakville at 277 Lakeshore Road East. It serves clients across the Greater Toronto Area and other parts of Ontario.
