Indian firm KS Partners expands with new hires and Bangalore launch

Indian firm KS Partners has expanded its insurance practice with the hire of two partners from Tuli & Co. Mrinal Ojha and Trinath Tadakamalla joined the Delhi office on 1 May adding expertise in commercial dispute resolution in the areas of insurance, reinsurance, debt recoveries, and liability.   Managing Partner Umesh Khaitan talked about the firm’s strategic decision to expand the insurance practice, saying: “The insurance industry has been growing quite fast but correspondingly on the legal services end, there are not too many firms providing specialized legal services in this area. After a lot of consideration, we identified this as a good practice area and decided to expand in this area. We have been planning this over a period of time”.   Meanwhile, KS Partners has also opened an office in Bangalore, which will be led by senior lawyer Rukmani Menon, who will work alongside five other lawyers.
