The firm

Established in 2001, Economic Laws Practice works to deliver the best possible service to clients. Its expertise is founded on experience, research, in-depth understanding of industry and the foresight to anticipate clients’ needs.

The firm advises clients based in India on domestic and international matters, and international clients on Indian law. Clients value the firm’s ability to provide timely and high-quality advice to an international standard. Several of ELP’s partners and associates have in-depth understanding of international work as a result of having trained or worked abroad.

In its ten years of existence, the firm has established four offices in India and built a diverse team that offers clients local support and specialist knowledge. The firm’s Delhi office advises on litigation before the Supreme Court and local apex appellate bodies. The range of legal services offered by ELP meets clients’ needs in every area, including structuring and dispute resolution.

The firm’s partners have the international experience and local expertise required for work involving foreign jurisdictions. Its solicitors have been employed by highly regarded organisations for over 16 years, and ELP regularly provides advisory services that have an impact on key business decisions to several leading corporations. Its lawyers have represented the government of India before the WTO.
