LexNovaLegal Associates
Corporate & Commercial Law
End-to-end counsel for businesses on their commercial dealings, contracts and regulatory obligations.
LexNova Legal Associates advises Indian and international businesses on the full commercial lifecycle — from incorporation-stage agreements and shareholder arrangements through to recovery proceedings and commercial suits. Our corporate and commercial practice is built around one accountable team, so the lawyer who drafts your contract is the lawyer who defends it.
We work with founders, family-run enterprises, listed group subsidiaries and foreign companies operating in India. Whether the matter is a routine vendor agreement, a complex regulatory filing or a high-value commercial dispute before the Madras High Court, the objective is the same: commercially usable advice, delivered on the timeline your business actually runs on.
Services we handle
End-to-end counsel for businesses on their commercial dealings, contracts and regulatory obligations.
Contracts that hold up
Agreements drafted with the dispute in mind — clear obligations, workable exit routes and enforceable dispute-resolution clauses.
Litigation and arbitration
Representation in commercial suits, recovery proceedings and institutional or ad-hoc arbitrations.
Ongoing compliance
Corporate secretarial support, statutory filings and periodic compliance reviews so obligations never lapse.
Frequently asked questions
- Do you act for businesses outside Chennai?
- Yes. We advise clients across India and represent foreign companies and NRIs on Indian corporate and commercial matters, coordinating local counsel where a matter is listed outside Tamil Nadu.
- Can you handle both drafting and litigation on the same contract?
- Yes. The same practice group drafts, negotiates and, if it comes to it, litigates or arbitrates — so there is no re-briefing when a dispute arises.
