In the last five to six years, the market in corporate legal advisory has been witnessing multiple changes. One of the biggest transformations has been that in-house lawyers have become quite hands-on leading to companies becoming very legally wise. This has led to a surge in expectations from law firms with the need for them to be very high up in legal expertise. Indian companies have come of age; they now have seen the potential of having inhouse legal experts that can cater to a multitude of needs in compliance and other legal affairs.

Unlike in the past, when the need for a legal team was often discarded, companies now do not shy away from hiring one. To meet these transformed expectations, Grey Matter Legal has stepped into the space “ to enhance quality of one and all; by providing bespoke solutions through collaborative synergies between strategic expertise and legal advisory resulting in an easy-to-access, agile and pragmatic approach.”

"The principle motto that we follow is not just be lawyers to our clients but also their trusted council who they can depend on without a hitch"
