§03 Practice Areas

The work, by discipline.

Eight areas of practice, each staffed by a partner with direct experience of the forum in which the matter will be decided.

§01 — §08 · Portfolio
§01

Dispute Resolution

  • Commercial suits and injunctions
  • Pre-litigation strategy and notices
  • Mediation and structured settlement

We resolve disputes before they are filed as often as after. The practice advises on forum selection, interim protection and the shape of a settlement that will hold.

§02

Litigation

  • Trial and appellate advocacy
  • Constitutional and writ proceedings
  • White-collar and regulatory defence

First-instance and appellate work across civil, commercial, criminal and constitutional dockets — argued by the partner who prepared the record.

§03

Corporate & Mergers and Acquisitions

  • Acquisitions and disposals
  • Joint ventures and shareholder arrangements
  • Governance and board advisory

Transactional counsel with a litigator's instinct for where an agreement will be tested — and drafting that anticipates the dispute.

§04

Domestic & International Arbitration

  • Institutional and ad hoc arbitration
  • Emergency and interim relief
  • Enforcement and setting aside

Seated in India and abroad, under institutional rules and ad hoc protocols — from the request for arbitration through enforcement.

§05

Taxation

  • Direct and indirect tax disputes
  • Assessment and appellate representation
  • Transaction structuring and opinions

Advisory and contested tax work, with particular attention to the points on which the department and the tribunals have diverged.

§06

IP & Technology

  • Infringement and passing-off actions
  • Technology, data and licensing disputes
  • Portfolio strategy and enforcement

Enforcement of intangible rights in forums that are still catching up with the technology — and advice on building a record that helps them.

§07

  • Recovery and enforcement
  • Lender and borrower advisory
  • Regulatory and DRT proceedings

Counsel to lenders and borrowers on facility documentation, restructuring, and recovery proceedings in the tribunals.
