Section 34 of the Arbitration & Conciliation Act lists six grounds. Three of them are used; three are misused. A walk through both.
Read →We represent founders, families, employers, employees, landlords, tenants, and the occasional defendant who simply wants the matter ended. Read briefs that fit on one page. Hearings that begin on time.

Read brief → 02Incorporation, founder agreements, shareholder disputes, contracts that hold up when the relationship doesn’t.
Read brief → 03Arbitration before ICA, DAC, MCIA. Mediation when sensible. Trial when not. Appellate work up to the Karnataka High Court and the Supreme Court.
Read brief → 04Title diligence, sale deeds, tenancy, apartment association compliance under the Karnataka Apartment Ownership Act.
Read brief → 05Trademark prosecution and enforcement, copyright, design registration. We do not file patents — we refer them.
Read brief → 06White-collar matters, cheque bounce, NDPS bail, FIR quashing under Section 482. We do not appear for matters involving violence against women or children.
