KHC · Commercial Courts · City Civil Courts · Magistrate Courts · NCLT · DRT · all other fora · Bengaluru
MetaLaw Chambers is a litigation practice led by Shrishail Navalgund. We appear across all levels of court — the Karnataka High Court, Commercial Courts, City Civil Courts, Magistrate Courts, NCLT, DRT, and every other forum where our clients' matters take us.
Every person who joins us carries real responsibility from their first week. Not because we are understaffed — but because we believe that a lawyer grows fastest when the work is genuinely theirs. You will draft, appear, research, and advise. You will not spend your first year managing files.
What we offer
Not perks. A practice that takes your growth seriously.
01
Court appearances from week one
You will be on the vakalatnama. Not watching. Not carrying files. Appearing — with preparation, feedback, and support.
02
Direct mentorship
Every draft is returned with comments. Every court appearance is reviewed. Mentorship from Shrishail Navalgund on arguments, drafting, and case strategy.
03
Equal starting point
Every lawyer begins at the same compensation, regardless of which college they attended. We evaluate what you produce here, not where you came from.
04
Multi-forum exposure
Magistrate to High Court, civil to corporate — you work across all fora, not siloed into one. Breadth of exposure early in your career builds a serious practice.
05
A culture of craft
We care about how things are written, argued, and reasoned. If you care about the quality of your work, you will find people here who care about it too.
06
Defined progression
There is a clear path. From associate to senior associate to independent practice. We have no interest in keeping you as a perpetual junior.
