This strategic addition reflects the firm’s continued growth and its commitment to providing clients with top-tier dispute resolution services, as part of our multidisciplinary offering.
Dhanraj joins the firm after several years at a leading US law firm, where he successfully acted as a global disputes strategist for both entities and individuals.
