IBLJ, 2022 (Fintech)

Being an early-stage crypto startup, there are very few law firms who can help you navigate the legal space keeping in mind the business aspect. The knowledge and understanding that the Ikigai team has of this space is probably one of the best in the country.

Chambers & Partners

They fought the cryptocurrency battle when many stopped fighting - they are the ones who got it over the line and opened out the space.

The Legal500, 2022 (Data)

We found them extremely competent in assessing the business impact of some of these newly drafted data privacy and protection laws around the world. Nehaa is highly professional in her commitments and brings on board perspectives which people often tend to overlook but may be extremely fatal for businesses.

The Legal500, 2022 (Financial Services Regulatory)

They have a deep understanding of RBI regulations and have always been available to resolve the smallest of the queries from the company. Their biggest USP is that they don’t only analyse the regulations and industry practices but also come up with compliant frameworks

The Legal500, 2022 (TMT)

‘Ikigai’s TMT practice is outstanding for such a young firm – they are able to cover a whole range of new and emerging areas and industries that many firms are yet to catch up to.’

The Legal500, 2022 (Aviation)

Some practical advice in the past has helped us avoid significant litigation. I have found the Ikigai team to be very solution-oriented, which I have sometimes found to be missing in other law firms’ teams.’
