HSA Advocates’ Bangalore Partner Megha Arora has resigned from the firm to rejoin J. Sagar Associates as a Retained Partner in its Bengaluru office, effective September 8, 2017. She will be part of the firm’s Projects team.

Megha has over 12 years of experience specializing in Energy, Projects, and Corporate Commercial transactions.

Last year, HSA Advocates had set up its Bengaluru office to build its presence in the southern region. Megha had joined the firm as its first partner in the city. HSA Bangalore Office is currently being led by Partner Sharath Chandrasekhar, who again is an ex JSA.

Commenting on Megha’s decision to leave, HSA Managing Partner Amitabh Sharma, said,

“HSA respects Megha’s decision to move on. Megha and I have had a long term association of more than 10 years now – she is a very bright lawyer and I wish her Godspeed for her future journey.”

A graduate of NUJS, Kolkata, Megha initially worked at Trilegal before joining JSA in 2007. She quit JSA in 2011, after which she joined Khaitan & Co, before eventually moving to HSA in 2016.

Commenting on Megha’s rejoining, Senior Partner Amit Kapur along with Joint Managing Partners Dina Wadia and Shivpriya Nanda, said,

“Her joining is a part of JSA’s domain expertise-based expansion. She will strengthen our presence in South India focusing on Infrastructure. We wish Megha a long and mutually beneficial association with JSA.”
