Former Juris Corp partner Vandana Sekhri, who resigned from 31 January, has joined Amarchand Mangaldas in Mumbai as senior consultant in the team of managing partner Cyril Shroff.
She will be part of the general corporate practice group in Mumbai from 1 May.
When she announced her resignation from Juris Corp on 24 January, where she had worked for seven years, she said in a statement at the time that she had decided to explore other opportunities.

Jsa and Luthra are hybrids! The others don't really matter !
At from....is that a typo, or do Khaitan lawyers describe their association with the firm in one gulp?
