Bharucha doubles senior associate counts and leverage

Bharucha & Partners has filled out its senior associate ranks by promoting four associates into the position.

Corporate associates Sohrab Khushrushahi and Jay Parikh and litigation associates Anuradha Agnihotri and Krishnayan Sen were promoted to senior associate level.

Prior to the promotions the firm had only three senior associates.

The firm now has 35 lawyers, of whom five are partners and seven are senior associates, said Bharucha founding partner Alka Bharucha.

She explained: “They were due for promotion and are doing good work.”

Bharucha added that on the litigation side senior lawyers were particularly able to handle a lot of matters on their own with a lot of responsibility.

In February the firm moved its corporate team into the former offices of Talwak Thakore & Associates, vowing to continue doubling its headcount as it had done in its first two years of existence.

In August of last year Bharucha & Partners took on its first lateral partner with Rukshad Davar joining from his own independent practice.

Kian- Its not fair that you do not add any comments other than the ones congratulating the fellas. A public forum is supposed to carry all sort of views on a given news. I think it does not go with the spirit of a news website to edit and not post comments which are critical of a news. I hope you will take this seriously and permit a more unbiased view and comment on articles.

[Dear JJ, thanks for your comment. Unlike your previous comments, we can not allow personal and unsubstantiated attacks against individuals to take place, as those could easily be abused by people with personal grudges or other motives. If you wish to make a constructive general critical comment, please feel free but do not throw in anything personal and try to maintain reasonable balance. -Ed]

Hi Kian,

Good to see you take an assertive stand. Personal attacks in the form of comments are becoming too frequent on your site, and it's good to see you step in and not allow such veiled attacks.

@10: You MUST have REAL GOOD reason to make 'critical' and 'attacking' personal comments on such run-of-the-mill type news! Wonder why'd you do so; suspect you are 'DIRECTLY AFFECTED' by these promotions!

@12 just for the record..there is no one who is directly affected by the promotions. Every1 entitled to promotion this year i.e. every1 who passed out out in that year or batch were promoted.

@10,13 - In that case wonder why you make (or were purporting to make) snide remarks.
