Profile
Ruth Kalnitsky Roth is the head of the Family Law Group at Brauti Thorning, LLP in Toronto, Ontario. A tireless yet level-headed advocate, Ruth’s practice encompasses every aspect of family law. Ruth began her career in San Francisco, California, where she obtained her law degree in 2006. Following her call to the bar, she developed a family law practice alongside a niche area of civil litigation involving the wrongful removal of children from their families by child welfare agencies. In 2008, Ruth founded the Law Offices of Ruth Kalnitsky where assisted her clients in the litigation and negotiation of their separation, asset division, child custody and support issues. Ruth's practice also involved an adoption and assisted reproduction component in both contract formation and litigating matters involving agency or adoption facilitator misconduct. After her call to the Ontario bar, Ruth acquainted herself with the Canadian legal system by working at a well-known family law boutique and a smaller general practice firm before joining Brauti Thorning. Ruth’s practice currently involves complex litigation dealing with both parenting and financial issues as well as matters undergoing various forms of alternative dispute resolution. Her clients come from all walks of life, spanning from parents facing the consequences of international child abduction to high net-worth individuals both inside and outside of Canada dealing with matrimonial issues. In every matter, Ruth is committed to moving things forward as efficiently and cost-effectively as possible.Languages Spoken: English, French, conversational Russian
