With over two years of experience in Family Law, Manjot is passionate about helping individuals and families navigate some of the most challenging and emotionally significant moments in their lives. He approaches each matter with compassion, practical insight, and a strong commitment to advocating for his clients and their families.
Before joining Douglas Law Firm, Manjot articled at a family and civil law firm in Brampton, Ontario.

Since being called to the bar, Manjot has focused his practice on Family Law, developing valuable experience and a strong understanding of the unique challenges families face during periods of transition.
Manjot chose to pursue Family Law because it provides him with an opportunity to make a meaningful difference in people’s lives when they need support the most. He believes Family Law is about more than resolving legal disputes—it is about helping individuals and families navigate significant life changes with compassion, understanding, and practical solutions. He is motivated by the responsibility of advocating for his clients while working toward outcomes that are fair, sustainable, and in the best interests of children.
What Manjot values most about working at Douglas Law Firm is the strong sense of community and support throughout the team. He appreciates that everyone treats one another like family and that there is always someone willing to lend a hand or offer guidance. Manjot especially enjoys learning from the experienced lawyers at the firm and taking opportunities to sit in on meetings and court appearances. He describes Douglas Law Firm as a highly supportive environment with excellent mentors, adding that the encouragement he receives motivates him to continue learning, growing, and working hard for his clients.
Manjot earned his LL.B. from the University of Leicester in 2020. Following graduation, he completed the requirements of the National Committee on Accreditation (NCA) in 2022 and successfully passed the Ontario Barrister and Solicitor licensing examinations. In August 2023, he began the Law Practice Program at Toronto Metropolitan University. After successfully completing the program and satisfying all licensing requirements, Manjot was called to the Bar of Ontario in June 2024.
Outside of work, Manjot is a self-proclaimed foodie who enjoys discovering new restaurants and trying new foods. He has a particular weakness for anything chocolate and proudly considers himself to have a serious sweet tooth. Manjot is also a passionate sports fan and enjoys watching both the NBA and NFL. His favourite NFL team is the Kansas City Chiefs. When he’s not enjoying good food or watching sports, Manjot spends plenty of time with his French Bulldog, Melo, who is one year old. He brought Melo home as a puppy for his 26th birthday and considers him one of the best birthday presents he has ever received.
