Vikram Sampath and Sanjeev Sanyal are not legal academics. I don't think Swapan Dasgupta is either. VIF doesnt do legal work.
Vikram Sampath
Sanjeev Sanyal
Swapan Dasgupta
Vivekanda International Foundation ( founded by Ajit Doval is quite RW too)
Anirudh Rajput (leading authority on International Law)
Harish Salve (Not really an academic but definitely a top legal expert, see his writings and interviews defending CAA and Art 370 abrogation)
Just few names that come to mind. The numbers would surely go up as most of the senior academics today are occupying these positions because of the tutelage they enjoyed under the Congress. Case in point, Mr.Nehru who fired respected academics like BR Shenoy and Jadunath Sarkar for refusing to parrot his Socialist propaganda. With this Govt, you can see gradually more RW scholarship becoming mainstream.
Anyhow, the intellectuals are Arun Shourie and Sitaram Goel
