Shardul Amarchand Mangaldas (SAM) partner Dhruv Dewan is set to go independent as a litigator in Delhi, we understand authoritatively from sources.
He will be starting an independent practice in the next month or two, after the end of his notice period.
The NLIU Bhopal 2004 graduate specialises in commercial disputes and had started his career at Amarchand Mangaldas as it then was.
We understand that he had acted for Tata Sons in its Cyrus Mistry dispute, begun in 2016.
He had been promoted to partner in 2013.
He declined to comment when contacted.
We have also reached out to SAM for comment.

Bleak future of disputes practice in large firms.
Oh and your rumour mongering grapevine is a bit off. Seems illogical for him to move to citywalk while his partner wife stays in Okhla.
Bet you didn't know that did you;)
Still got Ritu and Tejas. Torchbearers
when was it a healthy meritocracy not dependent on crony-backing on whoever the management liked (at the moment)?
DD leaving is probably the saddest because he was an extremely capable lawyer with extremely competent team. You will be missed sire.
