We are delighted to announce the launch of our India Desk and our new partnership with renowned Indian law firm Solicis Lex. As a long-standing law firm in the heart of London, Child & Child serves both UK-based and global clients, as well as many with business and personal interests that span multiple jurisdictions.

With an increasing number of Indian nationals working and living in the UK, as well as those based abroad who are actively investing in the UK, the firm decided to launch a dedicated India desk to meet their needs.

Our established Italian and Middle East desks already make it both easy and effective for these groups to access the UK legal market, with native speakers and dual-qualified lawyers facilitating communication and anticipating the differences between the UK and other legal jurisdictions. The India Desk will provide the same strategic support, ensuring a seamless experience for clients with personal, commercial, or investment interests in the UK.

“Solicis Lex Advisory is an established powerhouse in the dynamic Indian legal market,’ says Child & Child managing partner Adrian Biles. “We wanted to not only provide a London-based service for our clients but also work closely with a partner in India. Solicis Lex Advisory is a top-ten Indian law firm, with a client base and focus on excellence that matches Child & Child. We look forward to a productive and long partnership.”

Solicis Lex Managing Partner Ameet Mehta adds: “With the approval of Entry of Foreign Law Firms in India by the Bar Council of India and Union Government’s approval, we pledge to strike a balance in strategic leadership, profitability, people management but also maintaining market share.

By fostering alignments with leaders like Child & Child, we wish to keep ourselves at pace with market leaders. This is our overall firm strategy”.
