Economic Laws Practice (ELP) has strengthened its Labour & Employment practice with the acquisition of V Law Partners, led by Vivek Daswaney.

Daswaney will now head the Labour and Employment practice at ELP.

Daswaney and his team will support the infrastructure practice areas of the Firm, which is led by Sujjain Talwar. He and his team of six professionals will be based out of ELP’s Mumbai office.

Daswaney completed his Bachelor’s and Master of Laws in Mumbai and is a qualified solicitor, registered with The Bombay Incorporated Law Society and The Law Society of England and Wales.

He has over 25 years of extensive experience across labor and employment law, advising leading Indian and multinational corporations on complex employment issues. His practice is complemented by deep expertise in corporate and commercial law, real estate, inheritance planning, trusts and testamentary matters, enabling him to provide holistic and commercially aligned advice to clients.

Commenting on this development, Suhail Nathani, Managing Partner, ELP said,

“We welcome Vivek to the ELP partnership. He is a seasoned practitioner and brings decades of experience to ELP. Given the new labour codes and with Vivek at the helm of the labour and employment team, ELP will be able to deliver the same high-quality advice that our clients have come to expect from us. With his broad expertise, he will also play a vital role in the infrastructure practice going forward”.
