I’m so happy with the team at PSL!! The entire team is so welcoming, professional and are all outstanding lawyers. I’m especially grateful for Mr. Sameer Jain and Mr. Sandeep Bajaj. Since day one they provided positive, hopeful yet realistic assurances, regarding my case. They represented our company in institutional arbitration with regards to the functioning and go live ability of a complex banking integration software and payment disputes on achieving certain pre negotiated milestones. I can honestly say that the entire team was not only consistent in their communication, but also took the time to provide options, professional opinion and guidance as to each step in my case.
