Raj Grewal sued by his father-in-law; the former Brampton MP suggests his life is in danger as he sinks deeper into widening legal quagmire
In the latest legal salvo launched against disgraced former Brampton MP Raj Grewal, his father-in-law is suing him for allegedly authorizing illegal transactions involving a business owned by Grewal’s wife’s father.
Two related cases connected to the business include stunning sworn testimony by Grewal, contradicting his father-in-law and being glaringly evasive under oath. Grewal testified that a former employee of his law firm was shot dead in December, suggesting that his own life is in danger as his legal problems worsen.
Kailash Kasal served Grewal with a crossclaim on September 17, which has been filed with Ontario’s Superior Court of Justice Commercial List. He is pursuing legal action against his son-in-law alleging Raj Grewal made “negligent or fraudulent” representations that his father-in-law was backing loans Grewal took out against Kasal’s Chatham-Kent truck stop business.
The case and another one involving the same business pit Grewal and his father-in-law against each other, as each claims the other had control of the company when the allegedly fraudulent behaviour took place.
Kasal alleges in a crossclaim against Grewal (a lawsuit within a statement of defence Kasal filed in response to a case lenders/plaintiffs named him and Grewal in, along with Grewal’s wife and others) that any documentation that was used by Grewal to take out the loans in Kasal’s name was not signed or in any way authorized by him and he had no idea that Grewal had done so without his knowledge.

Kasal’s crossclaim lawsuit against his son-in-law alleges Raj Grewal and another RSG Law employee, Davinder Khattra, “knew or ought to have known that there was no security, agreement to provide security or guarantee to the Plaintiffs in connection with any of the properties” Kasal owns. “The Kasal Defendants state that the representation that Mr. Kasal and/or the Kasal Corporate Defendants were agreeing to provide any form of security or guarantee to the Plaintiffs was made fraudulently or negligently.”
Grewal has claimed from the beginning of his legal problems in April that he sold RSG Law to Khattra in 2023 and has not had anything to do with its day-to-day operations since.
Both Grewal and Khattra face dozens of similar allegations in more than 20 lawsuits and other legal actions that have been filed against them and RSG Law since April.
Conspiracy, illegal movement of funds, widespread forgery of loan and mortgage documents, fake counterfeit cheques that Grewal and Khattra allegedly used and fraudulent funds that never existed but were deposited into accounts before ending up with RSG Law are detailed in the sweeping allegations Grewal and Khattra face.
Text messages from Grewal, WhatsApp communications, sworn testimony and other evidence show Grewal has been actively involved in RSG Law’s day-to-day affairs throughout the entire period of his legal problems, and he has even admitted throughout the summer in his responses to many of the lawsuits and other legal cases against him that he was representing and working on RSG’s behalf to resolve matters initiated long after he claims to have sold the company.
Kasal was cross-examined in August under oath for one of the cases, that involves the National Bank of Canada—which provided refinancing for a Mississauga property connected to the defendants—the Bank of Montreal and plaintiffs who lent Kasal’s Chatham-Kent truck stop business money. He testified that he had no knowledge of the financing and refinancing loans.
The Chatham-area truck stop is owned by a company he controls as the principal shareholder, and he swore under oath that his company managed it until December of 2024, when his son-in-law took over.
“Raj Grewal, he wanted to operate the gas station because he has a lot of connections with the trucking companies, so he will improve the value of the gas station. He will improve the gas station, increase the value, and we will sell it. And the profit, the extra profit that we get...so, he can keep that. That goes to Rajvinder.”
He testified that Raj Grewal “had access to the [bank] account” of the truck stop and “Since he took over operations, I didn't take anything from there,” explaining that any profits paid out as salary or dividends went to Grewal.
Lawyers representing Grewal and Kasal did not respond to questions from The Pointer.
Kasal testified that though Grewal took over the full operation of the truck stop, Kasal maintained exclusive signing authority for the business and was the only person allowed to make financial decisions such as taking out new loans against the business.
He was asked if he ever took out loans for the Chatham-Kent based truck stop from private individuals (private lenders are suing Kasal and Raj Grewal): “No,” he replied during the cross-examination.
The lawyer representing National Bank, the Bank of Montreal and the other plaintiffs then asked Kasal: “Okay, and we'll scroll down just a little. This is dated November of 2025, and there is the corporation, and there's the $7 million mortgage that was granted at 20 percent interest per annum for one month. Were you aware of these short-term loans that were being arranged for your company?”
“No,” Kasal responded.
“And you'll see that ‘RSG Davinder Khattra’ is acting… And he worked with Raj Grewal, correct?”
“Yes.”
“Okay. And did you ever authorize Davinder to register this mortgage against the Bloomfield property (the road the truck stop is located on)?”
“Not at all, no.”
The cross-examination of Raj Grewal later the same day, August 17, by the same lawyer went very differently.
“Did you ever assist with the operations of the business in any manner?” Grewal was asked.
“At one point, my father-in-law's and my business interests’ were aligned,” he responded.
“I don't know what that means. Can you explain that in a different way that I might understand?”
Grewal replied: “...when they were purchased, I was involved.”
“Again, I think you're being particularly evasive. You could have been involved in many ways. Were you involved in providing legal services? Were you involved as a co-investor? Were you a shareholder? Were you an officer and director? I think you're being evasive, sir. Could you answer the question?...Did you ever manage the operations of that truck stop? And I don't… by saying that, I don't necessarily mean did you physically go in to the gas station and pump gas or operate it from there, but, in any way, did you assist with the management of the business?”
“No, I was not involved in the day-to-day management of the business.”
Later in the cross-examination Grewal was asked about loans RSG Law helped register against the business.
“Did you ever arrange financing” for the truck stop business, he was asked.
“Is there a particular financing you're referring to?”
“Did you ever arrange any financing” for the business?
“I don't know. I've worked on a lot of deals in the last couple of years, and with a lot of different parties. And so, I cannot say for sure that I have, but I can't say that I haven't either, to be honest.”
“Have you continued to practise law since you sold your shares in RSG Law to Davinder Khattra?”
“No. On a very limited basis, I...after I sold my firm, my day-to-day operations at the firm were gone, and I was mostly a referral source. I didn't really lead any file.”
“But yet, you have worked on hundreds of financing deals?”
“I have a commercial development business that I work on…So, I worked on hundreds of deals prior to 2023. I've referred hundreds of deals more since then, and I will continue to do so, but my day-to-day life is spent on my commercial development business.”
Grewal was then asked about the loans that are connected to the National Bank et al lawsuit against him and transactions involving RSG Law.
He was first asked about a specific transaction by RSG Law in January of last year.
“I don't have control of” the RSG account, Grewal replied.
“You never had control of the RSG trust account?”
“Yes, at one point prior to selling the firm, I had control of the RSG Law trust account…”.
During the cross-examination Grewal was asked, “when did you sell your shares in RSG Law Professional Corporation?”
“It was the summer of 2023.”
When asked about each loan-related transaction involving RSG connected to the National Bank et al lawsuit and whether he knew about the converted funds (money fraudulently obtained by RSG Law) used in the transactions, Grewal repeatedly replied, “No”. He testified that he did not direct Khattra in any of the RSG transactions he was questioned about.
Two different witnesses, father-in-law and son-in-law, two different answers, under oath, to the question of Grewal’s management of the business. Kasal swore that Grewal managed the business. Grewal swore that he did not.
Kasal swore he had no knowledge of the loans arranged against his company by RSG Law, the firm Grewal founded, which are the subject of the National Bank et al lawsuit. Grewal swore he did not have anything to do with them.

There are a number of claims Grewal made in his sworn testimony that appear to be false, according to evidence filed with the court in the National Bank/BMO matter he was cross-examined for.
Grewal was asked during his cross-examination on August 17 about a Halifax-based company named IFS, which finances the insurance policies of companies. IFS receives monthly payments from businesses who get their insurance premium costs covered by IFS.
“Did they ever finance any insurance premiums for you or any company you're involved in?” Grewal was asked, regarding IFS.
“I would have to get back to you on that,” Grewal replied.
Shortly after, he was asked about a $250,000 payment made by RSG Law to IFS.
“Do you know if that was on account of any of the premiums that were financed for you or any of your companies?”
Grewal replied: “No, it wasn't.”
“And did you direct anyone to make that payment?”
Grewal replied: “No.”
“Did you direct anyone to make any payments to IFS in 2025 or 2026?”
Grewal replied: “No.”
“From RSG Law's bank account?”
Grewal again replied, “No.”
“Do you have any information as to why they would have received $250,000 from the converted funds (the fraudulently obtained money that ended up with RSG Law)?”
“No,” Grewal replied.
“Did you direct Mr. Khattra to make that payment?”
“No.”
The evidence filed with Ontario’s Superior Court for the case includes documentation and witness testimony regarding $4.3 million that RSG Law owed to IFS for 10 separate insurance premiums (one additional premium had been paid) the law firm had taken out. As of January of this year, RSG Law was $1.25 million behind on its payments to IFS for the insurance premiums the firm used IFS to finance.
At the time, Raj Grewal was drowning in debt.
According to the more than two-dozen lawsuits filed against him and RSG since the spring, he allegedly owed more than $200 million in loans, mortgage payments, allegedly fraudulent real estate transactions and millions to clients of RSG Law whose funds were never transferred by the firm when it was retained to handle home sales and purchases.
“Hi Raj,” Jai Laba, the president of IFS wrote to Grewal in an email on January 12 of this year that is included in the court filings for the National Bank Canada et al case. “We are now $1,250,000 owed and in our account today. Please ensure that you work with your bank and have the funds deposited directly into our account today. I need you to confirm that this has been done before 4 PM today. I am a supportive and very tolerant person, but this is the last chance to rectify this account.”
The blunt message was sent to Grewal’s RSG Law email address after he had repeatedly claimed for weeks, in emails included in the court documents, that payments were being made, without any funds received by IFS.
On January 20, Grewal replied to Laba from the same email address.
“Jai, Hope all is well. We are finally getting back on track here…please see attached $250k, in addition to the $250k that was sent Friday We will continue to send funds daily until caught up Raj”.
The email includes the RSG Law logo and Raj Grewal is listed as the “Principal Lawyer”.
It appears Grewal used fraudulently obtained money, part of the converted funds he was cross-examined about, to pay RSG’s debts.
It also appears that he did not answer truthfully under oath when he was asked if he knew anything about the $250,000 payment to IFS from the RSG Law account, and if he directed anyone to make the payments.

On April 20, Laba sent an email to the Mississauga-based insurance company RSG Law had received the premiums from.
“Raj was supposed to put a ‘big dent’ in this last week…I am concerned Raj is not taking this serious.”
According to the court filings, the Mississauga Insurance company had been told that lawyer Rajkiran Sidhu, who had worked for RSG Law, sent a wire transfer to cover a payment owed to IFS.
Sidhu recently had his law licence suspended by the LSO over his alleged fraudulent misconduct in the RSG Law matters now before the courts and told the governing body he was carrying out instructions from Grewal and Khattra.
“I regret the trust that I placed in Mr. Grewal and Mr. Khattra and the extent to which I allowed myself to rely upon their direction rather than exercising my own independent professional judgment.”

The National Bank of Canada et al lawsuit alleges “Rajvinder Grewal is a lawyer and the founder of RSG Law. At all material times, Grewal was the directing mind of RSG Law and oversaw and/or instructed Khattra.”
“Khattra is a lawyer at RSG Law and is the registered officer and director of RSG Law. Khattra acted as counsel to borrowers to whom the Plaintiffs advanced the mortgage funds and/or counsel to the vendors involved in the refinancing transaction.”
In a motion filed with the court on September 23 requesting a worldwide freeze of Grewal’s and RSG Law’s assets, the National Bank of Canada, Bank of Montreal and the other plaintiffs allege evidence over the summer and since the spring has further implicated Raj Grewal in the matters central to the case.
“Since the granting of the Converted Funds Mareva, subsequent disclosure and cross-examination evidence has further demonstrated the central involvement of the Grewal Conspiracy Defendants, and in particular [Raj] Grewal and RSG Law, in the fraudulent scheme,” the motion alleges.
“Several of the defendants have testified on cross-examination that the loan repayments made using the Converted Funds were for deals relating to Grewal and/or in which Grewal was actively involved.
“Kasal, Grewal’s father-in-law, testified that he is the sole director and owner of 5459 Ontario Inc. (the truck stop), the operations of which he managed until December 2024 when he transferred control to Grewal.
“Kasal also testified that Grewal remains in control of 5459 Ontario Inc.’s truck stop operations and has access to its banking.”
Sarwan Singh, who is the principal of one of the companies listed as a defendant, testified that Raj Grewal was his primary point of contact; “at no point in time did Mr. Singh understand that Grewal had stopped practicing law or had left RSG Law”; and that Raj Grewal had told him this summer that he would “take care of it” after Singh was served with a freezing order over his company’s alleged involvement with fraudulently obtained funds.
“The president of the defendant IFS Financial Services (“IFS”), Jai Laba, disclosed that IFS’s receipt of the Converted Funds related to its contracts with 11 entities connected to RSG Law and Grewal,” the motion alleges.
The motion refers to others who have testified that Raj Grewal arranged loans for RSG Law and has made representations that he would pay them back over the past two years.
“Notwithstanding this evidence, Grewal continues to deny any involvement in the fraudulent scheme and conspiracy at the centre of this proceeding.
“Further, [Sarwan Singh’s numbered company] received the majority of the Converted Funds as purported repayment of millions of dollars in short-term, high-interest loans made to Grewal using its revolving line of credit. 765 Ontario Inc.'s representative admitted that these were informal ‘handshake’ loans negotiated through phone calls and WhatsApp messages, and that funds received in repayment were often re-advanced to Grewal almost immediately.”

In his cross-examination, Grewal’s lawyer asked to go off-the-record at the very beginning when Grewal was asked for his home address.
Later in the questioning under oath, Grewal was asked to confirm that the reason he had missed an earlier date when he had a deadline to appear for cross-examination under a court order, “was because of a shooting incident which occurred at or close to your residential home last week, correct?”
Grewal responded: “My personal security and safety is obviously important to myself. And so, I believe information was shared with you in confidence with respect to an incident that occurred at one of my residences. Now, I'll leave it at that.”
The lawyer representing the plaintiffs continued.
“And as I understand, an employee bookkeeper of yours was recently shot in December?”
Grewal refused to answer, and after he again refused to answer another question later in his examination about his involvement with a particular business, he said, I don't see the relevance of the question, to be honest, just like I don't see the relevance of you bringing up questions about my physical safety or people that were unfortunately gunned down in the City of Brampton. This isn't a fishing expedition…”.
Shortly after, Grewal refused to provide the phone number of his father, who is facing numerous allegations along with Raj Grewal in the lawsuits before the courts, again suggesting his safety is in jeopardy.
“I would Google ‘South Asian extortions’, and then you'll understand my position with respect to my personal information.”
In the lawsuit served on Grewal launched by his father-in-law, Khattra is named alongside Raj Grewal in the crossclaim that alleges both of them participated in negligent or fraudulent activities to charge loans against Kasal’s business without his knowledge.
Khattra has been barred by the Law Society of Ontario which stripped him of his licence to practice law.
The LSO filed two separate motions against Grewal and Khattra seeking to remove both of them: “There are reasonable grounds to believe that there is a significant risk of harm to the public and the public interest in the administration of justice if (Grewal and Khattra)” are “allowed to continue to practice,” the LSO alleges. It also alleges the possibility that Grewal and Khattra have committed criminal acts.
Grewal was forced to voluntarily stop practising law while he awaits an LSO Tribunal hearing that was supposed to take place in August before Grewal had it postponed in his efforts to salvage his legal career.
His father-in-law is now making that even harder.
In the separate legal action involving the Chatham-Kent-based business Kasal owns, National Bank of Canada and the other plaintiffs filed their extraordinary world-wide freezing request, known as a Mareva injunction, seeking the courts to order a global freeze that would prevent Raj Grewal from moving funds or dealing with transactions in any way, anywhere in the world.
The motion outlines the “Mareva Injunction Against the Grewal Conspiracy Defendants”, seeking to prevent the “Grewal Conspiracy Defendants…from directly, or indirectly, by any means whatsoever: selling, removing, disposing of, dissipating, alienating, transferring, assigning, encumbering, or similarly dealing with any assets, investments and/or property, wherever situated, including but not limited to funds and monies held in accounts with a bank, credit union or other financial institution, or otherwise, up to the following amounts”: $6.9 million for Raj Grewal and RSG Law; $2 million for Raj Grewal’s father, Avtar Grewal; and $4 million for the numbered company controlled by Sarwan Singh who alleges Raj Grewal and/or his father owe him that amount; along with amounts that restrict other entities.
In the National Bank of Canada et al case, involving loan payments tied to the Chatham-Kent business owed to the plaintiffs, Raj Grewal’s father-in-law has provided sworn testimony that contradicts claims Grewal has made in his own sworn testimony.
National Bank and other plaintiffs in the case including lenders whose loans were received by the Chatham-Kent business which was represented by RSG Law, are trying to get their money back.
“The plaintiffs are the lenders in various mortgage loan transactions involving properties in Ontario,” the motion record which includes the world-wide freezing request, details. The record was filed with the court on September 23.
“In connection with those loans, the plaintiffs advanced funds to certain of the defendants who acted as lawyers and law firms retained by either the purchasers/borrowers or sellers in the transactions – namely, RSG Law,” and another law firm controlled by Raj Grewal’s brother-in-law, the plaintiffs outline.
Since the granting of the Mareva injunction (the global freezing order), subsequent documentation and "cross-examination evidence" have exposed the "central involvement" of Raj Grewal in the conspiracy to conduct a "fraudulent scheme"; several defendants have "testified on cross-examination" that "Converted Funds" (which were fraudulently obtained by RSG Law) were used for deals linked to Raj Grewal "and/or in which Grewal was actively involved,” the National Bank of Canada motion alleges.
Justice Fred Myers has handled many of the mounting cases against Grewal, who has claimed he sold RSG Law to Khattra in 2023, and has had nothing to do with the day-to-day operations of the firm (that still bears his initials—Rajvinder Singh Grewal) since, which is contradicted by Grewal’s own representations in many of the cases against him.
Justice Myers has pointed this out.
“In the corresponding endorsement, Justice Myers observed that Grewal’s name appears as a recipient, director, manager and/or lawyer in most of the cases before the Court,” the National Bank et al motion highlights, referring to the dozens of lawsuits and legal actions Raj Grewal is currently facing.
In another lawsuit filed on August 3, also involving the National Bank of Canada, Grewal allegedly failed to transfer $860,000 to the bank when RSG Law represented two brothers in a real estate transaction.
That lawsuit alleges Grewal – described as “a lawyer and the founder of RSG Law,” who “was the Plaintiffs' principal point of contact at RSG Law” and a “directing mind” of the firm – and RSG Law fraudulently claimed a certified cheque for $862,371 was given to National Bank in January to cover a mortgage after the plaintiffs retained RSG Law, the firm founded by Raj Grewal, for a real estate transaction.
Grewal “did not pay National Bank anything,” the lawsuit, one of at least two dozen against RSG Law and Grewal alleging a similar pattern of mortgage fraud, claims.
“On February 12, 2026, National Bank advised the Plaintiffs that no payment had been received.” National Bank advised that the claim by Grewal’s law firm in January, that RSG had provided a certified cheque for $862,371, was not true: “That representation was false: no such payment was received by National Bank, and the Defendants have never produced the cheque, proof of its delivery or negotiation, or the trust ledger for the file, despite repeated requests.”
The lawsuit alleges that, “Between February and June 2026, Grewal made repeated written representations to the Plaintiffs that the payout was imminent or in progress, including that a new payout statement had been requested and ‘then we're gonna go pay it off’; that it ‘should be done by Wednesday’; and that he would ‘personally get it done today’. Those representations were false when made. In the same period Grewal admitted that RSG Law's accounts had been frozen and that he had retained counsel to ‘get our accounts back’; stated that he had withdrawn or would withdraw personal funds from a private wealth account and break a GIC to ‘clear this up’; and, when National Bank began contacting the Plaintiffs directly, counselled them to say only that they would ‘follow up with your lawyer’. The Plaintiffs relied on the Defendants' representations, forbore from acting, and suffered continuing loss.”
The lawsuit includes details of a statement of claim filed by National Bank against RSG Law on June 25, regarding other mortgages that were never paid out: “The Plaintiffs plead the existence of these and other related proceedings as evincing a pattern of conduct and a risk of dissipation (the fraudulent moving of funds).”
The plaintiffs in that case sought an order from the Superior Court of Justice’s Commercial List to freeze Grewal’s assets and those of RSG Law, in the hope that the $862,371 given to the firm to cover the mortgage could be traced, secured and returned to the plaintiffs after Grewal allegedly defrauded them of their money.
“The Plaintiffs provided $720,000 to the law firm from CIBC and another approximately $130,000 of their own to the law firm in trust to be used to pay out the existing first mortgage. The lawyers did not pay the funds to the first mortgagee as required. The Plaintiffs do not know what the law firm has done with their money,” Justice Myers wrote in an order he made on August 4, the day after the lawsuit was filed, granting the request to freeze RSG’s and Grewal’s assets.
In his order for that matter Justice Myers pointed out how shoddy Grewal’s efforts to cover up the fraud were, first claiming a certified cheque was provided to National Bank in January then later making repeated “excuses” admitting the funds were never provided.
“Just this past weekend, Rajvinder (Raj) Grewal is recorded as having said that the payment will be made as soon as the firm is able to settle the litigation against it that has kept its accounts frozen. At other times, Mr. Grewal has indicated that he will obtain funds from his personal accounts at identified institutions to make payments. This suggests some intermingling of client funds and personal funds may have taken place.”
Justice Myers continued.
“I infer from the brazenness of the fraud, the lawyers’ (Raj Grewal and his associate at RSG Law) delays in responding, and ultimately the ongoing efforts to wheel and deal, including involving intermingled ‘personal’ assets, that efforts by the Plaintiffs to recover the funds owing to them would likely be thwarted by dissipation by the Defendants.
“The Plaintiffs included in evidence some decisions in other similar cases against the law firm and the lawyers (Grewal and his associate). It appears there was a pattern of misconduct in which the lawyers either outright misappropriated funds or, in many cases, robbed Peter to pay Paul.”
Justice Myers then addressed head on claims by Grewal that he sold RSG Law to Davinder Khattra three years ago, just before Grewal’s legal troubles began, and that he has since had nothing to do with the firm. Khattra is still in his 20s and had only recently graduated law school when Grewal claimed to have handed over the firm to him, distancing himself from its operations and no longer carrying out day-to-day activities for RSG Law.
“The Defendants have assets in Canada in their firm and investments. Whether Mr. Grewal is formally a partner of the firm at present, he plainly has been acting on this matter throughout and as recently as this past weekend. Whatever his arrangements with Mr. Khattra may be, he represents that he is engaged in the settlement efforts and the management of the firm’s trust funds.”
In the recent legal actions involving the Chatham-Kent truck stop business owned by Raj Grewal’s father-in-law, Grewal claims he had nothing to do with the allegedly fraudulent loans that were taken out, which Kasal, his father-in-law, has testified he knew nothing about.
Grewal swears in an affidavit that he was never a director or employee of the truck stop business, and had no access to the bank accounts. Kasal, the company’s sole owner, has sworn in his own affidavit that Grewal was the person in charge, and in his own separate lawsuit accuses his son-in-law and RSG Law of negligent or fraudulent misrepresentation.
In an August 10 affidavit sworn in response to an order by Justice Myers, Kasal said Grewal was the person with “ultimate control” of the company’s operations when certain loan-related transactions that Kasal did not know about took place last year, while Grewal was managing the truck stop business, and trying to dig himself out from an avalanche of debt.
