L&L Partners star Delhi-based corporate partner, Sundeep Dudeja, passed away earlier today after a prolonged battle with Covid-19.
A professional colleague said Dudeja was “very nice, respectful and a great lawyer”, a sentiment shared that was shared by many in the profession including at other law firms.
He had become partner at the firm in 2007 and had qualified as a chartered accountant in 1999.
Dudeja is survived by his two-year-old daughter Pranshi and his wife Rashmi.
7 May 2021: Senior partner Mohit Saraf said:
The entire firm is devastated on account of passing away of my colleague and dear friend, Sundeep Dudeja. Sundeep had been with the Firm since the very beginning. He started his journey in the firm as an intern and was soon a qualified Chartered Accountant and a lawyer.
He moved from strength to strength within the firm and rose to being a partner and member of the coveted executive committee; all on account of his sheer brilliance and dedication.
Even as a member of the executive committee, he led the efforts, from the front, to professionalise the firm and build a transparent equity model. He left us too soon without even waiting for his dreams to come true.
The firm will fondly remember Sundeep as a gem of a person, a soft spoken gentleman - who always brought in a unique creative aspect while interpreting economic regulations. The void which has been created by his untimely departure can never be filled and we stand besides Rashmi, his wife and Pranshi, his daughter, in the hour of grief.

I guess they might be raising questions like:
1. Are we sacrificing health for work?
2. Does this impact the L&L dispute?
It may be ok to discuss if done respectfully
We lost not only a brilliant, highly and widely respected and admired lawyer, but lost one more of the best humans.
Sir, you will always remain in our hearts and will be missed until we meet again. Till then, we will cherish your life and memory dearly and pray to have the strength to go on without you.
These are horrible times and we should be strong and take care of ourselves and each other.
Thank you for doing so much for me and for your team, Sir, and thank you for showing us how to think on our feet.
- Your mentee
You will be missed. Praying god to give all the strength in this world to his wife, daughter and family to bear with this irreparable loss.
May God bless the soul of the departed.
I wish I could talk you about what happened at SV sir's chamber that day. I wish you would not have left all of us so soon. I wish I could learn more from you. You will always be missed sir. While I don't know what is after life, but if there is one, I wish more power to you.
Last but not the least, more love and power to your family. Knowing how good a partner/company/elder you have always been, I am sure they (your family) are/will become double the fighter then what you were.
Have always called you Sir, have always heard the respect from others asking me to consult Sundeep or Mr. Dudeja and have sensed the reverence in those who had that unique of privilege of knowing you as Sud. And the fact that all of them went from addressing you as Sir to Sud is not so much a sign of their progress but rather the mark and humility of the man you were.
We spoke just 15-20 days ago to help someone who were seeking aid in these times of crisis. You not only saved many lives but also have accumulated lot of good fortune, which is the only carry forward for your next best life.
I didn't know that it was going to be our last conversation. I would always remember your last uplifting words to me that you said, you want to help!!
You were a huge support for everyone in the family and loved by all of us dearly. We miss you profoundly.
I feel pride to see you holding high in the best regards of everyone you were associated with.
From all of us in the family to L&L family, we can't thank you enough for your consistent support in the hours of distress and reassuring hope in us. We thank you all for reaching out and sharing your condolences. It is only with the help of the wonderful people in our lives that we will be able to get through this.
Regards
Family member

For instance, a few wouldn’t want to ‘like’ or ‘+1’ content relating to someone’s passing if they feel that ‘-1’ reflects their sympathy better.
