Atlas <strong>Law</strong> Partners<br />
<strong>In</strong> a dynamic economy such as<br />
<strong>In</strong>dia, one needs more than just<br />
business acumen to run a business<br />
successfully. Apart from financial and<br />
human resource experts, it is important<br />
to have the right legal experts. <strong>The</strong><br />
common thought-process is ‘one needs<br />
a lawyer only when there’s a major<br />
legal issue’. However, in today’s<br />
business world a lawyer is not merely a<br />
legal advisor but also a strategic and<br />
commercial counsellor to the clients.<br />
Liaising with corporate houses and<br />
businesses to provide them with timely<br />
corporate and transactional advisory<br />
are Harry Chawla and Niti Paul,<br />
Founders of Atlas <strong>Law</strong> Partners<br />

transactional advisory firm specializes<br />
in corporate commercial laws, mergers<br />
& acquisitions, real estate, banking &<br />
finance, private client practice matters,<br />
regulatory matters, antitrust /<br />
competition laws, insolvency &<br />
bankruptcy and litigation & dispute<br />
resolution. It started as a two-member<br />
team in 2016 and is now represented<br />
by sixteen lawyers and four partners.<br />
Experienced Founders<br />
Harry joined the law practice in 1990<br />
and has been a part of several leading<br />
<strong>In</strong>dian law firms, including the<br />
erstwhile Amarchand Mangaldas,<br />
CAM, L & L <strong>Law</strong> Offices. He started<br />
his independent firm Chawla & Co. in<br />
2001 which later merged with the<br />
erstwhile Amarchand Mangaldas in<br />
2007.<br />
“<strong>The</strong> Founders<br />
have brought<br />
recognition to<br />
the firm through<br />
their established<br />
names and<br />
rankings in the<br />
legal market in<br />
<strong>In</strong>dia and<br />

profession, but also as catalyst for<br />
development and evolution of the<br />
society and growth of businesses. <strong>The</strong><br />
practice is intellectually stimulating<br />
and challenging, which makes work<br />
every day all more interesting. <strong>The</strong> role<br />
of lawyers has evolved from firefighters<br />

are involved in board room decision<br />
making as well.<br />
