India's leading legal mind
in the decentralized economy

I founded Web3Legals with a single conviction: the decentralized economy deserves legal counsel that understands it from the inside. Not lawyers who learned about Bitcoin last year. Not traditional corporate attorneys retrofitting existing frameworks onto fundamentally new architecture. Web3-native legal thinking, built from first principles.

My academic foundation is the LLM in International & Business Law from National Law University India — the country's top-ranked law school — where I graduated as a Double Gold Medallist. But my real education in digital asset law has been practical: structuring token launches, advising DAO formations across Wyoming, Cayman, and Marshall Islands, and navigating the regulatory uncertainty that defines this space globally.

I operate at the intersection of securities law, corporate law, and emerging technology regulation. I've worked with founders across India, UAE, Singapore, and the United States on everything from pre-launch token classification to post-incident regulatory response. My approach combines rigorous legal analysis with a deep technical understanding of blockchain architecture — because you can't advise on smart contract liability without understanding how smart contracts actually work.

The regulatory environment for digital assets is maturing rapidly. SEBI's evolving crypto posture, the RBI's CBDC rollout, MiCA's full implementation across the EU, SEC enforcement actions in the US — every week brings new developments that affect how founders should structure their projects, their entities, and their token economics. I monitor all of it, so my clients don't have to.
