Striking a Balance
With 25 years’ experience working in legal, Ravi Singhania, managing partner at Singhania & Partners, sits down with former colleague Nandita Khurana, now the zone legal head for Africa, India and the Middle East at Michelin, to discuss the love/hate relationship between in-house counsel and their law firms.
Ravi Singhania (RS): how do you pick lawyers for your company?
Nandita Khurana (NK): When picking an outside counsel for our company, we are looking for a firm with an established track record in the practice area in question. We also want them to have an understanding of our industry, business model, company culture, and objectives. In addition, we are looking for lawyers who are genuinely concerned with safeguarding our interests and who can provide practical legal solutions suitable for our business.
