The wide network of Upkar Legal offices, affiliates and associates in major cities across the country enables us to handle work seamlessly across various cities in the country including Tier-II & III cities/ towns, which perhaps makes us have the widest and deepest outreach when it comes to dealing legal issues across the length and breadth of the country.

By having multiple offices in all parts of the country, especially in the Northeast, Upkar Legal has a wider outreach and is able to effectively deal with litigation before Courts in remote areas such as Mizoram, Arunachal Pradesh, Meghalaya, Nagaland, Manipur & Sikkim.
With a key focus on learning, we keep in touch with the change in setting vis-à-vis introduction of new laws and precedents under which environment our clients operate. We take pride in combining the expertise and diversity of experience of our Partners and Affiliates.

Through our commitment to social responsibility, we serve the society by rendering “pro bono” legal services and supporting social responsibility initiatives, including promotion of legal education.
Upkar Legal provided exceptional service in creating our corporate contracts. Their expertise and professionalism ensured smooth transactions and thorough agreements. We highly recommend them for any legal needs, especially in the corporate sector. Truly an outstanding firm!
Without the help of the entire Upkar Legal team, I know that I would not have had the successful outcomes I have had. Mr. Chetan took on an extremely difficult case and encountered issues that no one expected and few had ever seen. He worked tirelessly to make sure that the truth was told and presented it perfectly. He has stood by every one of my requests and guided me through the entire lengthy process. Though we faced challenges, Mr. Chetan and his team did not falter. His thorough research provided us the pathway we needed to rise to victory. I will only recommend Upkar Legal as I have never been nor have I ever seen anyone treated better.
3. We quickly had to get legal counsel and luckily for us, we found Upkar Legal. Their rapport and guidance was outstanding at all times, prompt, timely and open for calls and quick updates, and worked through all of the questions and issues on this case. We can't thank them enough for their care, work and time on the case.
During COVID-19, we were about to be evicted from our house due to passage of a consent decree before the Delhi High Court and we were obviously not in a place to meet physically with a lawyer so despite being apprehensive about retaining a lawyer we couldn’t meet with, we organized a WhatsApp video call with Chetan and we couldn’t have made a better choice as he not only guided us through the entire process, but also ensured that till the subsistence of the lockdown, no coercive steps were taken against us by getting us favourable orders from the Delhi High Court.
5. We were led by Upkar Legal team to defend a case of illegal termination of our employment as Pharmacists from a reputed hospital in New Delhi during the time of pandemic. Mr. Chetan and his team were extremely professional, courteous and efficient in being able to protect us by getting interim orders directing the hospital to continue making payment of our salaries till the lockdown was lifted.
6. The team at Upkar Legal is excellent when it comes to handling disputes before multiple courts and forums very efficiently. Mr. Chetan and his team managed to get a batch of transfer petitions filed by the Bankruptcy Board of India dismissed by the Supreme Court which sought to raise an issue with regard to a possibility of divergence in views qua Section 220(1) of the IB Code with prodigious ease. They are well equipped to understand and deal with financial sector laws and have served us well in handling our cases before the Debt Recovery Tribunals and other forums, including various High Courts.
