About

I’m a dedicated and courtroom-tested Advocate specializing in Litigation, Dispute Resolution, and Arbitration, with over 5 years of hands-on experience managing a diverse range of civil, commercial, and quasi-criminal matters. My legal journey has taken me from assisting top-tier senior advocates and law firms to independently representing clients before the High Court of Karnataka, Trial Courts, and Tribunals across the state. My core practice includes Section 138 NI Act, IBC proceedings, property and contractual disputes, and commercial arbitrations—both institutional and ad hoc. I take pride in crafting robust legal strategies, drafting precise pleadings, and delivering persuasive oral arguments in complex, high-stakes matters. Beyond the courtroom, I actively advise clients on pre-litigation strategies, compliance issues, and legal risks—balancing legal safeguards with commercial pragmatism. My approach is rooted in clarity, integrity, and consistent follow-through, and I thrive in roles that require both analytical rigor and tactical execution. I hold an LL.M. in Dispute Resolution from Jindal Global Law School and a B.A. LL.B from M.S. Ramaiah College of Law. I am also certified in Mediation, Mergers & Acquisitions, and Corporate & Investment Law, and have trained under leading legal minds including senior advocates and constitutional law experts. In a profession that demands both precision and presence, I bring confidence, deep procedural knowledge, and an unwavering commitment to client success. I’m now looking to bring my skills into dynamic in-house legal teams, corporate legal departments, or challenging litigation and arbitration roles that value both independence and collaboration.
