Dispute Resolution - India
What the Team is Known For
Jerome Merchant + Partners handles a sizeable volume of corporate and contractual dispute mandates for a broad range of clients, notably including a number of multinationals. The firm is often active in insolvency disputes, as well as debt recovery. It handles matters across various sectors including pharmaceuticals, TMT, aviation and financial services.
Strengths
We have been impressed by the quality of the litigation team. It developed a great strategy in a very complex situation, maintained a negotiating hold over the opposite party and held that advantage.
Jerome Merchant + Partners does not have a set-in-stone approach. This dynamism helps the team to handle every challenge coming its way in a situation- appropriate manner.
The firm is good at making an informed decision when nothing is in sight.
Work Highlights
Jerome Merchant + Partners advised ARES SSG on insolvency and ancillary proceedings initiated by IDBI Trusteeship Services on behalf of Credit Opportunities II against Coffee Day Enterprises.
Notable practitioners
Murtaza Somjee and Kalpana Merchant are key contacts for clients.
