Sumitava is a great guy. He is as good as a KCO/AZB/ SAMCo. partner. I have worked with him; he is client friendly, can shut the opposite side with his witty humor and excellent understanding of commercials.

Is this the same firm as Indo juris corp? Why wasn't Mukul promoted?

I couldn’t believe that it was Ankit’s picture when I saw the article thumbnail! This is so well deserved - Ankit’s technical skills are superb, and having him on a deal is a great comfort. Congratulations and more power to you!

Really? People with 7-8 years and no clients being made partners? What has happened to Juris Corp. Seems anyone can be a partner there.

Senior partners need to think afresh on their policies.

Except for Jayesh...all senior partners are newbies. Even they dont have more than 10-11 years of experience.

10-11 years include their internship and traineeship period also.

So now we have 4 banking partners in JC. How's this possible? Even the associate count is not four.

It was expected for Apurva, as JC failed to hire anyone after Mr. Bottlewala's departure. But Ankit and Saurabh being made partners, this is surprising and shocking. Looks like something new is cooking behind JC's closed doors.
