off to the train to nowhere! bad move, leaving luthra delhi's partnership. as harry chawla's move has indicated, ajit will not like amss delhi. there is a reason why almost no one moves from luthra to amarchand.

No that's a red herring, the beemer/beamer. Luths gives only to salaried partners who should be equity. Guilt-beemers.

Did you know that Ajit Warrier is the reason why NLS has its famous wall paper - "19(1)(A)."

Ajit is one of the very few good lit lawyers at luthra and its sad to see how an organisation cannot keep pace with the growth of its lawyers. A big big loss and will leave a big void.

Well he is a good guy, but there is a lot of talent out there and I believe Luthra has already hired a new partner to replace him.

Hope Warrier has enough of a warrior in him to battle it out in Amarchand's crowded litigation team. He is clearly a replacement for VP Singh. Hope he lasts unlike the other NLs guys like [...] who left for independence.

Legally India has not published a comment setting out why people are leaving Luthra, which wasn't offensive in the least.

Kian - if it is published, I will understand that it was overlooked. If not, we will draw our conclusions. Thanks.

Hi,

I have just checked and we don't have any unpublished comments of the description you have set out, on this story. Maybe it didn't make it through the server?

Best wishes,
Prachi
