What I'm looking for

I seek a senior legal role where I can lead litigation, manage contracts and due diligence, collaborate with counsel, and grow within a legally rigorous, team-oriented firm.

I am a litigation lawyer with over ten years of proven experience handling civil, criminal and corporate matters across district courts, sessions courts and high courts. I specialize in end-to-end case management, courtroom advocacy and client-facing negotiation.

I have independently prepared and filed a wide range of legal documents, including plaints, written statements, petitions, affidavits, NDAs, service agreements, sale deeds and partnership/lease deeds. My practice spans litigation, arbitration, consumer forum matters, motor-vehicle claims and property registration.

In recent roles I worked as Assistant Manager Legal and Senior Associate Legal, overseeing contract drafting, contract lifecycle management, due diligence, coordination with external counsel and mediation/settlements. I routinely manage litigation strategy, evidence preparation, bail applications and interlocutory remedies.

Beyond litigation I have experience with trademarks and IPR-related analysis, billing negotiation with external counsel, labour law matters and client advisory. I bring strong drafting, negotiation, research and MS Office skills, plus a long-standing personal dedication to music and continuous professional development.
