Mergers & Acquisitions

Rajesh has advised me on both professional and personal matters over the years. While he distinguishes himself with the wealth of knowledge and experience on legal matters, his personal approach has been a key differentiator rendering him the man to reach out for specialised advise. I will unhesitatingly recommend him any day.

My first association with Begur and Partners was nearly two decades ago when as Hutchison Max Telecom we engaged their services. The longevity of our association was evidence of the enormous value they brought to us as our legal advisors . Their knowledge of the law, thoroughness, attention to detail, promptness and customised services were exemplary. Such support truly strengthens the morale and conviction of clients. The firm has all the characteristics of a true partner. Underlining this is clearly the extraordinary leadership of Rajesh Begur himself, who has established such an efficient work culture within the firm .Rajesh has an enormous ability to bring in calm and gravitas to any grave legal situation . Over the years despite having retired, my wife and I still continue to confer with Rajesh on many matters and his advice is both erudite and insightful. He is invariably our ‘go to’ person !

I have worked closely with Rajesh Begur from 1998 when I was appointed CEO of Hutchison Max Limited, all the way through its evolution to Vodafone Essar.Rajesh is a top-notch professional with high ethical standards who gave the company, and me as its CEO, well-considered advice. He was also involved in litigation in various cases which he saw through to a successful outcome.He is understated in his demeanour, but underlying that is a thoughtful legal mind.I have no hesitation in recommending his services.

I have known and worked with Rajesh and his team for over 20 years on a lot of joint ventures, mergers and acquisitions for Warner Brothers Discovery. He is not only a very knowledgeable and seasoned lawyer but is also very strategic and business friendly in his approach, which I find most valuable.
