The customary "We wish him well in his future endeavors" parting shot missing. I wonder why? A bitter parting perhaps? or is he quitting under a cloud?

How many partners are left at Wadia at this point? I wonder how the associates down there must be feeling! It has not a pretty picture at all since mid-2014.

While partner exits are reported, associate exits are not. Wadia is filled now only with freshers - 2 years away from being senior associates, the continuing partners and the few who will be made partner this year.

Same feeling prevailing in JurisCorp for the past five years. And close to same uncertain feeling among AMSS Mumbai associates since October since the news of the case being filed and hearing about developments in LI rather than from the firm management.

How is it that there is no mention of the associates leaving with him. Kian, no updates from the joint managing partners?
