Contract drafting and negotiation, shareholder and commercial disputes, domestic arbitration, insolvency before the NCLT, and continuing counsel to Indian and foreign businesses.

White & Black Chambers — Advocates & Legal Consultants

The Practice

Businesses need counsel who read a balance sheet as fluently as a brief. Our corporate practice pairs transactional drafting with the litigation muscle to enforce what is drafted.

We act as continuing counsel to promoters, boards and funds — advising on contracts, governance and regulatory exposure — and appear in commercial suits, arbitrations and company-law proceedings before the NCLT, the High Courts and arbitral tribunals.

How the chamber helps

  • Commercial contracts — drafting, review & negotiation
  • Shareholder, partnership & joint-venture disputes
  • Domestic & institutional arbitration, Section 11 & Section 34 proceedings
  • Insolvency & bankruptcy (IBC) — creditors, debtors & resolution professionals
  • NCLT & NCLAT company matters — oppression, mismanagement, winding up
  • Employment & labour advisory, POSH compliance
  • Regulatory appearances — RBI, SEBI, ROC & FEMA matters
  • Retainer & general-counsel arrangements for SMEs
