AZB & Partners 2013-partner Nandish Vyas will join ex-AZB senior partner and CEO Abhijit Joshi who has started his own firm in Mumbai.
Vyas, who was promoted to AZB’s partnership in 2013 and specialises in private equity and M&A, confirmed to Bar & Bench that he would be joining Joshi.
It is understood that he will be joining by early next year.
Joshi had resigned last month to set up a new practice after 13 years at AZB. He declined to comment when contacted.
Zia Mody commented to Legally India in an email: “We wish Nandish all the very best. He is an excellent lawyer. We were proud to have him as our partner.”

Note- I haven't paid attention to the punctuations nor do I intend to do so in future. So grammar mentors on this website are requested to ignore my comments.
However, there have been persistent rumours of 2 other partners leaving AZB, but as far as I can tell that's not true, which is why some previous comments speculating on partner departures may have not been published.
Have a feeling it will remain a smaller outfit initially, though God knows what will happen in the coming years...
Will keep you posted as soon as we have any concrete information, obviously.
Speaking of Big Six/Seven, the others don't seem to have the same partner attrition that AZB and Amarchand has. JSA, Khaitan, Trilegal and Luthra seem to be able to hold on to their partners much better, don't you think?
The name partner is an authority in energy law, individual equity and non-equity partners are miles ahead in terms of delivery and quality of service.
