Catherine Kassenoff

Video of Catherine Kassenoff in a screaming match with her young daughter.

The video below appears to be a supervised visit with one of the children where the child is saying that she doesn’t want to do visits anymore. It sounds like the mother and child are arguing over an email and the child believes that the mother went into the child’s account and wrote it and sent it back to herself to help in the case.

In the audio clip below, we hear Catherine Kassenoff in a screaming match with her daughter about a chocolate bar.

In the audio clip below, Catherine appears to be screaming about being tired and also not wanting custody of the children anymore.

Catherine’s documentation claims that she was kicked out of her home, destitute, and had no money, but one anonymous source claims this is factually incorrect and that she cleared out all the marital accounts and received more than $1.1 million during the cases for counsel fees, housing, and other support.  Where did that money go?  How did she get the money to purchase the new home?  Maybe its family money?  But again, why buy a house if you knew you were scheduled for assisted suicide in a month? I’ve added the deed here (and below) so that you can see the purchase of the house in Larchmont for $897,000 paid in full with no mortgage in early April 2023.

I received an anonymously delivered email that appears to be a communication from her brother and mother to Catherine begging her to get mental health assistance and then explaining that for their own well-being would need to distance themselves from Catherine. One anonymous source said that her brothers remain in contact with Allan and have attempted to get mental health support for Catherine multiple times through the years. Below is the email.

Email between Catherine and her brother (Jamie) and mom (Heather)

I was surprised to see that Catherine had 18 lawyers from different law firms representing her throughout the last 4 years. Certainly, a red flag if I’ve ever seen one. There’s more to the story there too and I’m hoping that they will read this and consider helping us understand what happened in this case.

Court Documents

Adler 4: SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK COUNTY OF WESTCHESTER CATHERINE KASSENOFF -against- SUSAN ADLER, REPLY MEMORANDUM OF LAW IN FURTHER SUPPORT OF NON-PARTY ALLAN KASSENOFF’S MOTION TO QUASH AND FOR A PROTECTIVE ORDER

Page 4:

There can be no mistaking the fact that Ms. Kassenoff suffers from mental illness. Dr. Marc Abrams, the neutral forensic therapist appointed by the Court in the Matrimonial Action, concluded that she has a personality disorder with narcissistic and sadistic tendencies. Similarly, both Judge Koba and Judge Lubell stated as much from the bench. For example, Judge Koba explained as follows during a June 2, 2021 hearing:

This is the problem as I see it: I have an obligation to act in the best interest of the children. And while – the Court made findings a year ago after a ten-day hearing, and the Court believes, based upon the evidence deduced during that hearing, that Ms. Kassenoff does have a mental illness that’s impacting her interactions with the children, okay.

(Ex. 13 at 60 (emphasis added)). Similarly, Judge Lubell specifically told Ms. Kassenoff that “maybe she should look inside before she starts casting the aspersion outside.” (Ex. 14 at 25). If that were not clear enough, Judge Lubell then instructed her to get “some help”:

And when somebody continually has motions against them for violation of orders, contempt motions, orders of protection, that sends a message to this Court. And maybe, Mrs. Kassenoff, instead of asking everybody else to do things for you, maybe you ought to look inside and start doing things for yourself and get yourself some help.

Page 5:

Presumably due to her mental illness, Ms. Kassenoff abused the oldest Kassenoff child for years and then manipulated all three children throughout the divorce, including, for example, by telling them to lie about their father. It was because of these actions (and many more like them) that led the Matrimonial Court to only permit Ms. Kassenoff to see her children for a few hours.

In fact, Judge David Everett, the first judge in the Matrimonial Action, stated on the record that Ms. Kassenoff cannot be around the children without supervision even “for a few minutes”:

THE COURT: All right. Since this record will be so-ordered, I just want to make it very clear that, Ms. Most, please be sure to communicate to each of the people on the risks of supervising visits that the children are not to be alone in the presence of Mrs. Kassenoff –

MS. MOST: Okay.

THE COURT: – during the period of time that they are supervising the visits.

MS. MOST: Okay.

MR. DIMOPOULOS: Your Honor, if I –

THE COURT: For any period of time whatsoever. Yes?

MR. DIMOPOULOS: If that concludes that part of our discussion, I’d like to just bring up one brief thing just for clarification. Do we need to say anything more –

MS. MOST: Dr. Ravitz.

MR. DIMOPOULOS: Yeah, so we’re transitioning, okay, so we can cut there for –

THE COURT: Just so it’s clear, when I say any – at any time I mean even for a few minutes. It has to be –

MS. MOST: I get it.

THE COURT: It has to be constant.

Adler 2: CATHERINE KASSENOFF -against- SUSAN ADLER, MEMORANDUM OF LAW IN SUPPORT OF NON-PARTY ALLAN KASSENOFF’S MOTION TO QUASH AND FOR A PROTECTIVE ORDER

Amongst Judge Koba’s conclusions were the following:

  • “[G]iven the mother’s actions over the past year and given her failure to recognize and understand that her actions have been and are deleterious to her children’s psychological health and emotional well-being, the father’s ability to provide for the children’s emotional well-being and development is superior to that of the mother’s at this time.” (Id. at 31).
  • “The mother’s manipulative conduct demonstrates a deliberate ‘placement of her self-interest above the interests of others.’ The evidence of false allegations of abuse against the father, i.e., the March Zoom Visit, and the purposeful actions to alienate the children from him is ‘so inconsistent with the best interests of the child[ren] that it raises, by itself, a strong probability that the offending party is unfit to act as a custodial parent.’ There was All exhibits are attached to the Affirmation of Allan Kassenoff filed concurrently herewith.
  • “The Court is concerned the mother will continue her harmful behavior if she has unsupervised visits with the children because she testified multiple times that she does not believe her behavior was inappropriate. Given her lack of insight regarding her actions and how they are detrimental to her children, the Court concludes the best interests of the children require that the mother’s visits with her children continue to be supervised by a therapeutic supervisor who can intervene if the mother begins to engage in harmful behavior and who can assist her in developing the skills to be with her children without damaging their emotional health.” (Id. at 42).

Supreme Court – Catherine against Allan and his attorneys

Page 7:

Furthermore, the Plaintiff’s attacks are not limited to the Defendants. Rather, she has gone after each and every person involved in the matrimonial action that (she believes) led to the loss of her children, including Justice Nancy Koba, Justice Lewis Lubell (both Westchester County divorce judges who presided over the matrimonial action in 2020-2021), Carol Most (the attorney representing the Kassenoff children in the matrimonial action), Dr. Susan Adler (two of the Kassenoff children’s therapist) and Dr. Marc Abrams (the first court-appointed neutral forensic therapist).

Southern District – More details of the case in here and all claims rejected

Following Judge Koba’s August 2020 Decision, Mr. Kassenoff sincerely hoped that Ms. Kassenoff would get the help that she needed so that she could one day have a meaningful and healthy relationship with the children. But she has steadfastly refused. Instead, Ms. Kassenoff has opted to make it her life’s mission to exact revenge upon each and every person involved in the Matrimonial Action that led to the loss of her children, including Judge Koba, Judge Lewis Lubell (another Westchester County divorce judge who presided over the Matrimonial Action in 2021), Carol Most (the attorney representing the Kassenoff children in the Matrimonial Action), Dr. Susan Adler (two of the Kassenoff children’s therapist), Dr. Abrams (the Court-appointed neutral forensic therapist), Mr. Kassenoff, and co-Defendant Mr. Constantine G.

Nanny Warning: Kassenoff Former Nanny Describes “Psychopath” Mom

This document appears to be an official affidavit as part of the court case where one of the Kassenoff’s former nannies is describing what she observed. It’s a really compelling (and sad) story of how one parent would alienate an adopted daughter and show favoritism to two biological children. It also shares a warning published on Facebook to other nanny and au pair agencies.

  1. None of the content on this website even begins to address the documented facts of the matter – to name just one such fact, that these professionals Catherine “went after” have been removed due to documented malfeasance of one sort or another. It doesn’t begin to address “we wish mommy was a dead duck”. What a bunch of nonsense.

    1. This is far from nonsense.

      This is by far the most thorough documented reporting on this fiasco.

      Robbie Harvey and his minions should be ashamed of themselves for still spinning this sad situation and continuing to HURT three INNOCENT children.

    1. Huh. That’s not the point. Catherine’s is also “Self serving pleadings” and semi staged videos. It’s about seeing pleadings that CATHERINE purposely left out of her Dropbox release to get a better picture for ourselves and the truth.

    2. I know of at least one of the attorneys (he represented me in a commercial dispute) he is top top top notch. Something is off about that. I suspect she was going for the Jugular (proverbially) in this litigation.

  5. She went through 17 attorneys. Are they all part of the patriarchy conspiracy?

    Numerous judges, doctors and others who didn’t agree with her stories, she retaliated against each person. Each claim was found to be baseless. Numerous visits from CPS, all dismissed. I don’t think he was without blame, but there is no way all of these people sworn to uphold their individual professional standards were all in some sort of fix to have it out for Katherine. Doesn’t add up.

    Also, why buy a $900K home if you are going to kill yourself?

      2. Yes! The creep who made this ridiculous website is clearly looking for 5 min of attention. Pathetic. Statistics are on Catherine’s side. Allan Kassenoff is an abuser my lightening strike me now if I am wrong. I was married to an Allan. Only mine physically, mentally, emotionally, AND sexually abused our daughter. He terminated his rights in 2012. She’s 23 and you can YouTube search Addyson Bender & watch her at a press conference speaking her truth & naming names. I have only EVER told her to speak from her heart since she was 2. I wanted a loving father for my daughter. THERE ARE ABUSERS OUT THERE & Allan K. Is one of them.

  7. If this website was truly created to be unbiased, then under “documents” it would include ALL documents, videos and audio including the countless videos of him abusing her and those children. My guess is this website was created by Allan or HIS “minions” to try and spin this. Children will take the path of least resistance in their home as self preservation- my guess is he manipulated them and still does to this day. This is not an “unbiased” website. Display ALL the facts here and let people decide. This website is absolute nonsense. TheRobbieHarvey has fact checked everything. If you really want to “investigate” this case and publish for the public- do it and be fair. Hopefully those kids will soon be taken away and someone responsible and loving will focus on their healing. They’re the only ones that matter at this point. Allan Kassenoff is done.

    1. Hi Gianna. I hear you, that’s why I put a link on the first post today directing people to Robbie Harvey. That said, those videos have millions of views and comments, so I think interested parties have seen them, but I AM trying to be balanced. I have linked to them.

  8. Thanks for the work you’re doing and for the new, elucidating documents you’re sharing. They add a very important dimension largely missing from the dominant public narrative. That said, maybe you could cross-post your updates on this page, where commenting is allowed, so the viewing public can discuss with one another all the details you are uncovering as we all try to figure out for ourselves what exactly happened/is happening here….

      1. Sorry– 9/15/2021. Later in the transcript the Judge again indicates his plan to refer her to the Appellate Division (which runs the grievance committee) for prof discipline.

        I would also note the context and circumstances of that hearing: it was called b/c CK was violating court orders of protection by essentially stalking the children and harassing/directly contacting everyone including the judge himself. Alan filed a motion seeking her incarceration on the argument that was the only intervention that would get her to comply with court orders. The hearing was called to determine whether the judge should incarcerate her for these flagrant violations of his orders.

        In the course of the hearing, you will see she almost gets herself incarcerated for wholly separate, additional reason: contempt, for talking over and disrespecting the judge during the course of the hearing. So the judge had two different, equally justifiable bases, on which to incarcerate her. He didn’t. That was probably fair though he would have been justified but this context is important to understand two things: (1) the severe degree of her willful disobedience of courts orders; and (2) this context makes it more understandable why she wasn’t allowed to appear virtually while Allan was (CK uses these kind of complaints of injustice as evidence of disparate treatment by “the system.” But the reality has to be acknowledged that to the extent the various judges take harsh and sometimes punitive tacts with her, she has recurrently treated everyone with disrespect that rose to the level illegality (contempt). I just think it’s important to consider the full picture rather than cherry-picking facts & situations the CK does; you’ll see her doing it if you read the full transcript from the date above.

        1. Interesting comment about cherry-picking. That was my impression too. Do I think these 2 had a bad relationship and couldn’t peacefully co-parent – yes. Do I think there was enough legitimate bad behavior on CK’s side that people aren’t taking into account? Also yes. There may be failures in the family court system like the costs of specialists, so many lawyers and people involved, the lack of intervention on mental health and parenting services, but I do think that there’s enough here and in the other things I’ve read to lead me to believe that there was just more to the story than the CK documents. Thank you to this site for helping share some of that.

  10. I appreciate everyone’s passion on this website and how divided that this issue has gotten. I truly only wanted to understand if there was another side to the story and I think there is. Unfortunately, given the cursing, name calling, and hate mail received and in comments, I think it’s best to move to moderated comments or turning comments off completely at this point. If there is one that provides something new, I will share it here. Thank you for your participation.

  11. Answers to your questions about the house she bought before she died were easily found, but I get it, it benefits you to play dumb so you can paint her as the bad one (taking the heat off of you) & make up conspiracy theories bcuz they always attract an audience of ppl who blindly follow absurdities & idiocy.

    For those who care about the truth: She used money her family contributed to buy that house & bedroom furniture for her girls thinking they’d soon get to sleep over for the first time. Shortly after, the judge discontinued their visits & she lost all hope. She left her girls the house & any money she had left. Unfortunately since they were still married, Allen can take a large portion of her estate/the girls inheritance for himself if he chooses. I hope he finds it in his heart to do the right thing by Catherine in her death & allows her last wish & final try at helping her kids, or he’s just too scared to keep taking from her when she’s dead bcuz he knows it’ll make him look like even more of a monster while the whole country is watching him, which is the more likely scenario.

    Also, just saying the price of the home is very deceptive since only lavish homes cost that much in most other areas, but you know that’s not the case where she lives. The home is VERY modest & small (only 1,459 sq ft). The address is on documents you uploaded & Google is free!

  13. This Website with rolling green grass is meant to give the impression it is somehow less about defamatory words and posts and more about sadness over a mother gone too soon.
    And what an absolute SWINDLE that is!
    This is a quintessential pro-Alan amalgam of misogyny, #redpilledfathers, and misinformation.

    For all who stumbled on the Looking for Help/Facts section on the FRONT page expecting to find GENUINE questions, not clumsily veiled propaganda, and genuinely do not know, Catherine’s death occurred in May. If the subject matter were not so sad, I cannot imagine a writer so thick or obtuse to question why “Catherine didn’t spend her last Mother’s Day with her children??” WOW. The Alan with his flapping ears and beady close-set eyes prevented it, giant evil goof that he is.
    Trust fund for Catherine’s children at Alan’s former firm??? REALLY? You’re trying to promote some shit that will benefit Alan? NO WONDER YOU’RE ANONYMOUS.

    GIVE IT TO A REPUTABLE SITE.

  14. Court documents show Catherine Kassenoff manipulated her children against their father. Although she was clearly told to change her behavior, she left no stone unturned in turning the children against their father. These are very poor parenting practices – in this case obviously also highly abusive.
    Catherine has been a follower of anti-parental alienation activists who leave no stone unturned in trying to portray parental alienation as pseudoscience and prohibit evidence in family court. They explain such cases as domestic violence where women are not believed in court and the allegation of parental alienation is used to cut mothers’ custody rights.
    This case is specifically used by these activists on social media to spread the narrative women are always victims in court and parental alienation is used against women by abusive fathers. This case is used to implement their interests, see Kayden’s law, Piqui’s law and to have evidence that family court is on crisis.
    They have enough flying monkeys on social media and also journalists to help spreading their false narrative, even politicians and UN. It is very easy to manipulate people – in this case it was great work I even believed.

    Thanks for all the documents.
    In all these family court cases it is crucial to read court documents first:-)
