“We are a bunch of new-aged professionals who are keen on solving legal problems creatively and efficiently.”
Kashish Poojara & Sadaf R. Khan
(Founding Partners, Lexicon Legal)
When two seasoned legal professionals, having honed their skills in the Gujarat and Bombay High Courts for several years, decided to introduce an innovative side to traditional legal consultancy in their hometown, it led to the inception of Lexicon Legal in 2021. With over seven years of experience in various legal domains, such as Company Law, Corporate Law, Arbitration, Mediation, Commercial Disputes, and other practice areas, Kashish and Sadaf bring a wealth of experience to the table.
Unlike traditional law firms that stick to conventional practices, Lexicon Legal believes in embracing change and staying ahead of the curve. The firm excels in providing legal services in practice areas ranging from Arbitration and Mediation, Banking and Finance, Corporate, Commercial and Merger & Acquisitions, to Information Technology, Intellectual Property Rights, Labour Laws, Dispute resolution, Media and Entertainment, Real Estate and Restructure & Insolvency.
“Realising the potential in Surat’s burgeoning market and its growing industries, we saw an opportunity to establish a comprehensive boutique law firm that would provide corporate and insolvency consultancy. Our journey began with three to four associates, and after 850 days of consistent hard work, we are now a close-knit family of 20+ associates, serving more than 200 businesses, ranging from start-ups and MSMEs to well-established firms,” recalls the Founders.
