Practice Areas

Four areas of work, kept deliberately narrow. What they share: a hard legal question, a well-resourced opponent, and an outcome the client cannot afford to get wrong.

Many matters span multiple forums simultaneously. The firm is built to manage that complexity without losing strategic coherence.

The decisions made in the earliest hours of an enforcement action shape everything that follows. N & Company Legal's white-collar crime defence practice is built around that reality, advising promoters, boards, high-net-worth individuals, and corporates across ED investigations under PMLA, CBI prosecutions, SFIO investigations, bank fraud matters, and actions under the Companies Act, 2013. The firm's approach prioritises early, strategic intervention — before statements are recorded, before attachments are executed, and before the narrative sets. Where matters have moved into active prosecution, the same rigour applies to structuring the defence and identifying the arguments that hold at every level of appeal.

  • Advising on enforcement risk and defence strategy at the investigation stage, before formal proceedings are initiated
  • Representing clients in PMLA proceedings before the Enforcement Directorate, the Special Court, and the PMLA Appellate Tribunal
  • Bail applications before the Supreme Court and High Courts in high-profile bank fraud and money laundering matters
  • Challenging Look-Out Circulars and attachment orders, including on novel points of law not previously adjudicated
  • Advising on matters where criminal enforcement exposure overlaps with concurrent insolvency proceedings, requiring simultaneous management across multiple forums

India's insolvency framework under the IBC is among the most litigated statutory regimes in the country, with the NCLT and NCLAT developing a substantial and evolving body of jurisprudence across every stage of the process. Navigating it requires both technical command of the Code and the litigation judgment to anticipate how tribunals will respond. N & Company Legal has appeared in some of India's most significant insolvency proceedings, including those involving Unitech Ltd., Bhushan Power and Steel, Ansal Properties and Infrastructure, and the promoters of Fortis Hospitals, and brings the same depth of preparation and strategic clarity to every matter it is retained on.

  • Representing financial creditors and operational creditors in the initiation of CIRP proceedings before the NCLT
  • Advising and appearing for promoters and ex-management contesting admission or pursuing a resolution
  • Representing resolution applicants in plan approval proceedings before the NCLT and NCLAT
  • Handling claims disputes, avoidance transaction litigation, and challenges to the conduct of the resolution process
  • Advising on the intersection of insolvency stress and regulatory enforcement, where the same factual matrix attracts simultaneous attention from multiple statutory authorities

N & Company Legal's commercial litigation practice covers high-value disputes before the Supreme Court, the Delhi and Bombay High Courts, the NCLT, the NCLAT, and statutory and quasi-judicial tribunals. The firm handles contractual disputes, shareholder and promoter conflicts, writ proceedings, competition law matters, IP enforcement, and debt recovery, as well as domestic and international arbitrations involving financial contracts, real estate, infrastructure, and corporate disputes. Many matters span multiple forums simultaneously. The firm is built to manage that complexity without losing strategic coherence.

  • Complex contractual and commercial disputes before the Supreme Court, High Courts, and statutory tribunals
  • Shareholder disputes, promoter conflicts, and corporate governance litigation and arbitration
  • Writ petitions challenging orders of regulatory authorities and quasi-judicial bodies, including the CCI
  • Defamation litigation and proceedings involving personality rights
  • Debt recovery proceedings before the DRTs and appellate forums

Brand identity and personality rights are increasingly central to commercial disputes in India. N & Company Legal's intellectual property practice advises on and litigates trade mark disputes, copyright matters, personality rights, and passing-off actions, appearing before the High Courts and relevant statutory forums. The firm acts for clients on both sides of IP proceedings, bringing the same litigation rigour to enforcement as it does to defence. Many IP matters do not arise in isolation — they run alongside defamation proceedings, commercial disputes, or regulatory challenges, and the firm is experienced in ensuring that the IP strategy is integrated with and reinforces the client's overall legal position at every stage.

  • Trade mark infringement actions and passing-off claims before the High Courts
  • Opposition and rectification proceedings before the relevant statutory authorities
  • Interim injunction applications and urgent relief in IP matters
  • Copyright disputes, including in digital and media contexts
  • Personality rights litigation, including in the context of unauthorised commercial use
