Wouldn't say *every* time, but credit where it's due, they've indeed been getting some Shroff v Shroff scoops recently. But you can't get them all and there's a lot of other work to be done apart from just this (admittedly fascinating) story.

And overall, I think we're still out way ahead in terms of scoops and comprehensiveness: http://www.legallyindia.com/tag/shroff-vs-shroff

Long overdue. Piyush is one of the most knowledgeable banking lawyers around and should have been at a firm with a more vibrant banking practice.

Seems this riddance is appreciate, else the disgruntled lot at Luthra would have trolled all over. A few more are anticipated. Watch this space.

Till the next exodus!

This is bound to happen when a select few hog all the equity and everyone else is left to fight over the crumbs. Not long before its #LuthraCrashandBurn2.0
