The US - Indian business corridor is a core area of focus of the Firm. We have an extensive network and connections in the Indian legal and business landscape. Our India Practice is led by Avinash Ganatra, who describes himself as a "Bombay Boy in New York." Avi was born into a family of lawyers in Mumbai and obtained his B.Com. and LL.B. degrees from the University of Mumbai before obtaining his US law degree (LL.M.) from New York University (NYU) School of Law. Avi's 20 years of world class experience at top global law firms and deep cultural comfort with legal and business nuances in both countries makes Ganatra Law an ideal choice for clients active in the US - Indian business corridor. Our India Practice is deeply integrated with our business law, capital markets, leveraged finance, M&A and private equity practices.
