I am a Delhi-based in-house counsel (6 months wk-exp) and was recently tasked with identifying a reasonable, yet capable counsel for arbitration in a 50L contract breach claim. My company isn't liable (or the primary party) and is being actively pursued/ harassed in this case - hence, we must contest liability and succeed. In what range should lawyers charge for a case like this? I have numbers that are all over the place and I am confused. Pls help!

That's the market rate. Try singularity legal, pioneer legal or SPN. They give good deals

What's the market rate!!?

Approach a local city lawyer don't go to a Firm

a reasonable lawyer would charge lumpsum 2-3L plus expenses

This is largely correct - also depends on the complexity and volume (which are more important criteria than the claim amount). Go with the lawyer that has examined documents first and then quoted.

You can try Sarvada. Pretty decent in disputes.
