quote - "...it is an honour to be elevated to partnership...". being in a corporate law firm, I had this grinding feeling at times of having forgone the chance of being 'elevated'. All regrets gone now - i still get to seize the great prize of being 'elevated' to the high table of partnership. It is gratifying to see that inter law firm camaraderie is working the right way to replicate the 'power perks' that go with good independent litigation practice.

Can't thank you enough Anagh. You have had a huge role to play in my life. It wouldn't have been possible for me to come so far without your support.
I must also thank Mr. Ajay Bahl for reposing the trust in me. It has been a leap of faith, but I promise that I will not let you down Sir.
