Chennai has been one elusive market for Bombay and delhi law firms to set a regional presence. The Chennai legal market is heavily dominated by local players that have a deep rooted presence with the top corporates and MNC's that have been in Chennai for decades. However, it is pertinent to note that these Lala firms have been doing Chennai work on a fly in fly out basis and also servicing clients from Mumbai and Bangalore.
In the last 10 years, Chennai circles have opened up with Khaitan, Amarchands and Induslaw in recent years. Kochar has been around for a decade too. Interesting times ahead. With the recent establishment of NCLAT and a regional office of CCI, excellent times ahead for lawyers in Chennai. Tnnlu would largely benefit from these in the long run.
