In corporate law, the document is the transaction. A resolution, agreement, or policy is only as good as its drafting — and sloppy drafting is discovered at the worst moments: the dispute, the diligence, the regulatory query. We draft corporate documents that say what you mean and hold up when tested.
Corporate documentation is the written record of a company's legal life: board and shareholder resolutions, statutory filings, inter-corporate agreements, policies, employment documents, and transaction paperwork. Each has legal consequences — a resolution authorises action, an agreement allocates risk, a policy creates obligations.
Good drafting is invisible: it anticipates the questions a reader will ask (a diligence lawyer, a judge, a regulator) and answers them in the document. Bad drafting is discovered, always, at the moment of maximum inconvenience. The cost difference between the two is negligible; the consequence difference is enormous.
Companies entering transactions — fundraises, acquisitions, joint ventures — where the documentation allocates crores of risk and every clause will be read adversarially. This is not the place for templates.
Boards making significant decisions that need proper minuting and resolution — the paper trail that proves the decision was considered, authorised, and executed. And companies building their policy stack: related-party, whistle-blower, insider trading, CSR, POSH — each needs drafting to the specific company, not generic downloads.
Anyone whose existing documents were "handled internally" and are now facing diligence, dispute, or regulatory review. We regularly reconstruct and remediate documentation — it's fixable, but better built right.
Resolutions, minutes, explanatory statements, and notices — drafted to reflect actual deliberation and satisfy statutory requirements. The board paper trail that diligence reads first.
Share subscription and shareholders' agreements, share purchase agreements, term sheets, NDAs — drafted or reviewed with the commercial intent preserved and the risk allocated deliberately. We draft for the dispute that shouldn't happen but might.
Related-party transaction policies, whistle-blower mechanisms, insider trading codes, CSR policies, POSH policies — each drafted to the company's actual operations and the specific statutory framework, not copied from a template library.
Appointment letters, employment agreements, consultant contracts, non-compete and confidentiality provisions — balanced to be enforceable, not just impressive.
Petitions, applications, replies to regulatory queries — drafted with the precision tribunals and regulators expect.
Fixed fee per document or document set, quoted on complexity — a board resolution and a shareholders' agreement are different universes. Retainers cover ongoing drafting needs for companies that generate steady paperwork.
Turnaround: standard documents in 3–5 working days; transaction documents to the deal timetable. Rushed drafting is bad drafting — we push back when the timeline threatens quality.
Downloading a shareholders' agreement template and filling in names. Templates don't know your cap table, your deadlock risks, or your exit expectations — the clauses that matter most are the ones templates get wrong for your situation.
Resolutions passed without recording the deliberation, or minutes written months later from fading memory. In a dispute, these documents don't protect — they incriminate.
Entire agreements where no one — not the founders, not the board — read past page two. The clause that bites is always in the boilerplate: indemnities, termination, governing law. We flag what matters before you sign.
We take the commercial intent and the facts — what the document must achieve, and for whom.
First draft, structured for readability and drafted for enforceability. No legalese where plain words work.
We walk you through what each clause does and why — so you sign understanding, not hoping.
Execution-ready documents, with the filing and record-keeping handled alongside.
For truly routine items, adapted templates are fine — adapted being the operative word. For anything involving money, rights, or risk allocation, bespoke drafting pays for itself.
Yes — counterparty drafts, existing agreements, legacy paperwork. A review that tells you what to sign, what to renegotiate, and what to walk from.
Standard documents: 3–5 working days. Transaction documents follow the deal timetable. Quality sets the floor — we won't rush what shouldn't be rushed.
They're drafted to — clear language, proper execution, statutory compliance. No document is litigation-proof, but well-drafted ones rarely need to be tested.
Yes — documentation and the filings that give it effect are handled together. A resolution without its filing is half a job.
Often, yes — through remediation, ratification, or fresh documentation superseding the old. We assess what's salvageable honestly.
Intent and language — an MoU can be binding if drafted that way, which is precisely the danger. If you don't want it binding, say so explicitly.
In most states, yes — insufficient stamping makes documents inadmissible in evidence (curable with penalty). Duty is state-specific and frequently miscalculated.
Some must be registered (property-related); others benefit from it. Registration is about enforceability and priority, not formality.
Yes — e-signatures hold under the IT Act for most commercial documents, with exceptions like certain property papers. Execution formalities still matter.
Talk to a partner about your situation — no pitch, no obligation. If we're not the right firm for it, we'll tell you that too.
