AZB Bangalore merger Anup Shah to go independent again

One-and-a-half years after merging with Anup S Shah law firm in Bangalore, Hyderabad and Chennai, AZB & Partners and Anup Shah and his firm have decided to part ways as “best friends”. Shah’s (pictured) practice would again consist of around 20 lawyers, with AZB’s Bangalore office reverting to five partners, AZB co-founding partner Bahram Vakil told Legally India, adding that the office would not have a formally designated legal head. Shah had merged with AZB in July 2009, almost doubling the size of AZB’s office to 40, only one month after J Sagar Associates (JSA) had merged with AZB-breakaway M&C Partners to grow to 37 lawyers.
