Question 1

How do I book a consultation?

Accepted Answer

Use the Book Consultation button, the contact form, or message us on WhatsApp. We confirm a slot, usually within the same working day, and tell you what documents to bring.

Question 2

Do you offer a first consultation for free?

Accepted Answer

We offer a short, no-obligation case assessment to understand your matter and tell you honestly whether and how we can help. Detailed advice and drafting are chargeable.

Question 3

How are your fees structured?

Accepted Answer

Standard documents carry fixed fees. Litigation and negotiated matters are billed on an agreed scope or stage-wise. You receive a clear estimate before any work begins.

Question 4

Do you work with clients outside Delhi NCR?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We advise clients across India and coordinate with a trusted associate network for appearances in other states.

Question 5

Is my information kept confidential?

Accepted Answer

Yes. All communications are treated as confidential and privileged. Sensitive matters are handled with strict discretion.

Question 6

How will I be kept updated on my case?

Accepted Answer

You receive updates after every material development and hearing, in plain language, through your preferred channel.

Question 7

Can everything be handled online?

Accepted Answer

Much of the work — consultations, drafting, document review — can be handled remotely. Court appearances are attended in person by us or our associates.

Question 8

What is the right structure to incorporate my business?

Accepted Answer

It depends on your goals, funding plans and how many people are involved. A private limited company is common for startups seeking growth or investment, but the right choice varies, and it is worth deciding deliberately rather than by default.

Question 9

Why do founders need agreements between themselves?

Accepted Answer

Clear founder arrangements set out ownership, roles and what happens if circumstances change. Deciding these early, while relationships are good, prevents serious disputes later.

Question 10

What is a cap table and why does it matter?

Accepted Answer

A cap table records who owns what share of the company. Keeping it accurate and well-structured from the start matters greatly, especially if you plan to raise investment.

Question 11

What ongoing compliance does a company have?

Accepted Answer

Companies have recurring obligations such as statutory filings and governance requirements. These vary by the type and size of business, and staying current with them avoids penalties and complications.

Question 12

What is a legal retainer or outsourced general counsel?

Accepted Answer

It is an arrangement where a business has ongoing access to legal support for a regular fee, rather than having a legal department in their company or engaging a lawyer only when a problem arises. It suits businesses that face legal questions regularly but do not need a full in-house team.

Question 13

Do you work with early-stage startups as well as established companies?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The support simply differs by stage: early businesses often need incorporation and founder advice, while established ones focus more on compliance, governance and ongoing counsel.

Question 14

When is a contract legally binding?

Accepted Answer

A contract is generally binding when there is a clear offer, acceptance, something of value exchanged, and an intention to create a legal relationship. Writing it down is not always required for validity, but it makes the terms far easier to prove.

Question 15

Is a written contract always necessary?

Accepted Answer

Not always, as many oral agreements can be enforceable, but written contracts are strongly preferable, because they record exactly what was agreed and are much easier to rely on if a disagreement arises.

Question 16

Does a contract need to be on stamp paper or registered?

Accepted Answer

Many contracts are valid without either, but adequate stamping affects whether a document can be relied on as evidence, and a few types of document require registration. Both stamping and registration rules vary by state and by the kind of agreement.

Question 17

Why have a lawyer review a contract before I sign it?

Accepted Answer

A review catches unfavourable terms, ambiguous wording and missing protections before you are bound by them. It is far easier to fix a clause before signing than to argue about it afterwards.

Question 18

What is an NDA?

Accepted Answer

An NDA, or confidentiality agreement, is a contract in which the parties agree to protect sensitive information they share, such as business plans, client lists or technical details.

Question 19

What happens if someone breaks a contract?

Accepted Answer

The available remedies depend on the agreement and the law, and may include compensation for loss or, in some cases, requiring the party to do what they promised. A clearly drafted contract makes those remedies easier to pursue.

Question 20

Do I need a will if I am not wealthy?

Accepted Answer

Yes. A will is about clarity, not wealth. Even a modest estate, a single home or a bank balance can create difficulty for a family if there is no clear record of your wishes.
