About

Hello there! I’m an advocate practising across a wide spectrum of matters including commercial suits, criminal law, white-collar crimes, anti-competition law, insolvency, arbitration, contractual disputes, service and constitutional law, human rights, and matrimonial cases. I am also the founder of Backbone Counsels, where I work closely with founders and businesses on legal strategy, risk, and disputes as their Legal Guardian. While my work spans diverse areas, my approach remains consistent. I focus on precise legal interpretation combined with a pragmatic, strategy-led mindset to solve real-world legal problems. My exposure to business and venture environments has shaped how I engage with legal issues, especially while advising founders, operators, and decision-makers who require more than technical answers. I work with them to navigate legal risk, structure decisions, and align legal strategy with growth, long-term vision, and operational realities. My practice is built on diligence, attention to detail, and a commitment to delivering tailored outcomes that meet the unique demands of each matter. I place strong emphasis on research, writing, and structured thinking, ensuring every position taken is both legally sound and practically viable. In courtrooms, I am Invictus. In boardrooms, I am Intentional. Beyond active practice, I remain deeply engaged in legal education and thought leadership. I have delivered guest lectures at schools, universities, and professional forums on diverse legal subjects. My insights and legal opinions have also been featured in Times Now Digital, Business News This Week, and other reputed platforms. I continue to learn from seasoned professionals while contributing meaningfully and representing every matter with focus and intent.
