What I'm looking for

I’m looking to continue litigation practice and dispute resolution, including roles for corporate legal teams and remote counsel mandates—handling appellate, writ, arbitration, and regulatory matters—while contributing disciplined drafting and strategy.

I’m a ready advocate with 3½ years of active practice at the Madhya Pradesh High Court, and I’m concurrently appointed as Government Panel Lawyer for the State of Madhya Pradesh. My work covers appellate and writ advocacy across criminal law, constitutional and administrative law, and government/institutional litigation.

As the State Panel Lawyer, I represent the State across civil, constitutional, service, and regulatory matters before the MP High Court, managing a live docket of 50+ files. I draft counter-affidavits, rejoinders, and departmental legal opinions, and I coordinate with State departments to assess legal exposure and shape litigation strategy.

In my independent practice, I handle writ petitions, criminal revisions and bail applications, first appeals, MACT appeals, insurance dispute appeals, and arbitration-related matters. I secure favourable outcomes in land acquisition, service law, and public interest litigation matters, and I advise on litigation strategy, risk assessment, and settlement options.

I bring cross-disciplinary experience from work with institutional chambers and government litigation teams, including arbitration, constitutional research, and written argument drafting under senior supervision. I’m seeking roles in litigation practice, dispute resolution, corporate legal teams, or remote counsel mandates—within India or internationally.
