David Grohmueller

David Grohmueller practices family law as well as civil litigation, tax litigation and criminal defence. He prides himself on giving practical advice and helping clients feel heard and supported as they navigate complex and stressful situations.

David joined DFS Kaneski UnRuh at the beginning of 2026. Prior to joining the firm, he gained extensive advocacy experience as counsel at the Department of Justice Canada and as a Crown Prosecutor with the Manitoba Prosecution Service. David has successfully argued a broad range of legal matters before the Provincial Court of Manitoba, the Court of King’s Bench of Manitoba, the Federal Court of Canada and the Tax Court of Canada.

While David’s goal is always to achieve his client’s desired results through efficient and thoughtful negotiations, he recognizes the important role that courts play in achieving outcomes when negotiations fail.
