The team’s extensive experience with both litigation and advisory services has positioned them as trusted advisers in intellectual property matters, ensuring that clients can effectively manage their portfolios and respond to infringement claims. 

Key individuals at the firm include Tushar Ajinkya, the founder and managing partner, who specialises in dispute resolution and has a wealth of experience in representing clients in arbitration and litigation.
