Founder and Managing Partner
Nitin is the founder and Managing Partner of Wadhwa Law Offices and a co-founder of AsiaWise, a group of cross-border professional firms. Nitin began his career as part of a leading global firm’s India practice and spent more than a decade building the corporate cross-border practice of the firm in India. He set up Wadhwa Law Offices in 2016 and has since helped expand the Firm into Bangalore and lead the Firm’s foray into high-growth practice areas including risk, intellectual property, and white collar.
Nitin’s expertise lies in public and private M&A, cross-border financings, private equity and venture capital transactions, corporate governance, and risk management. He is also recognized for his skills in managing complex shareholder disputes and overseeing commercial litigation.
A strategic sounding board on a range of business problems, Nitin is known for his ability to break down an issue into the simplest form possible and in a commercially oriented way. That makes him a true counsel for clients, and not just an advocate or attorney on different aspects of their business. Ground knowledge of the well-woven world of business and law and a nuanced understanding of cultural peculiarities places his clients in a uniquely advantageous position.
While clients vouch for Nitin’s pragmatic counselling and not just a lawyering approach to everything they do, clients are equally delighted with Nitin’s approachability and patient ear. Nitin takes one-off queries on regular business problems with as much gravitas and handholding as he closes complex transactions or disputes.
Nitin graduated law from Pune University and attended high school at The Doon School.
