HSA builds projects with Rajdeep Choudhary

Former Link Legal India Law Services (LLILS) associate partner Rajdeep Choudhary has joined HSA Advocates as partner to strengthen its dispute resolution and management, projects and energy and infrastructure practices.

The Lancaster University 1999 alumnus had joined LLILS in January 2017 right after its merger with DH Law Associates.

Update: He worked at Barlow Lyde & Gilbert (since merged with Clyde and Co) from 2001 – 2002; at Shearman & Sterling from 2002 – 2005; at the high court at Calcutta between 2005 and 2010; Khaitan & Co from 2011 to 2013; at JSA between 2014 and 2016, and at Link Legal India Law Services from 2017 before joining HSA.

He advises EPC and O&M contractors and project stakeholders including owners, investors, lenders and off-takers on disputes arising in infrastructure, construction, mining and energy projects, and also represents clients before dispute adjudication boards, ad-hoc arbitrations, institutional arbitrations and the courts other than advising on project claims and dispute management, according to HSA’s press release.

He also holds a 2000 LLM from the University College London (UCL), and qualified as a barrister in London, and is a member of the Chartered Institute of Arbitrators.

HSA founding partner Hemant Sahai commented: “On behalf of HSA’s partnership, I take this opportunity to extend a very warm welcome to Rajdeep and look forward to his contributions in further strengthening our Dispute Resolution and Projects practice.”

Kian: I fail to understand your selective reporting at times. Bar and Bench quotes "...Prior to Link Legal, he has worked with JSA, Khaitan & Co, Shearman & Sterling, London and Barlow Lyde & Gilbert (since merged with Clyde and Co.), London." While you have not included this. Why this discrimination against firms such as HSA and to the poor guy?

Lol, the amount of hyperbolic conspiracy theories floating about here is always amusing :)

Nothing intentional, but there is no full work history listed on Linked-in, and the press release did not specify names. We are checking and will add.

Why is Hemant commenting on the new partner? Shouldn't Amitabh, as "Managing Partner" be getting some sound bytes? [...]

Kian, there are rumblings that not all is well in the senior echelons of power (if there really is such a thing at this one owner firm). [...] Would you happen to know whether there is any substance to the rumour?
