Krishna brings to Lex Chambers' litigation practice a distinctive intellectual approach that prioritizes first principles over precedent, combining academic rigor with practical dispute resolution expertise. With dual degrees from Symbiosis Law School Pune and an LL.M. in Criminal and Constitutional Law from Rajiv Gandhi National University of Law, she possesses the confidence to build cases not just on established precedent, but on the nuanced interpretation of legislation itself.
Her practice encompasses the full spectrum of dispute resolution from arbitration and mediation to appellate proceedings and original trials. Krishna has developed expertise in Medical Negligence matters, Consumer Disputes, and complex Personal & Matrimonial Laws areas that demand both technical precision and human sensitivity. Her specialized work in Food Safety Regulations and her advisory on robust Anti-Sexual Harassment (POSH) policies for workplaces demonstrates her commitment to fostering safe and equitable environments while adding a contemporary dimension to her litigation portfolio.
What sets Krishna apart is her philosophical approach to advocacy. Unafraid to challenge conventional thinking, she seeks to understand the underlying principles of legislation, often drawing innovative parallels between similar statutes across India and international jurisdictions. This intellectual curiosity, combined with her commitment to nuanced interpretation, allows her to craft novel and compelling arguments that serve her clients' best interests across all forms of dispute resolution.
For Krishna, the core firm values of Honesty, Commitment, and Teamwork are intrinsically interlinked rather than separate qualities. She believes that an unwavering commitment to the client and to the work is what enables the team to collaborate effectively and put its best foot forward in any dispute. This integrated understanding seeing these values as interwoven principles that naturally flow into one another reflects a mature philosophy of professional practice that extends beyond individual achievement to collective success.
Outside the courtroom, Krishna finds balance through reading and swimming. [Space for: Specific details about what genres of books she enjoys and what swimming offers her relaxation, fitness, or competition to be expanded after receiving her response]. These pursuits provide the space for deep thinking and disciplined focus required in high-stakes litigation, mirroring her professional approach where intellectual engagement meets physical and mental endurance.
Krishna is actively tracking the evolving landscape of dispute resolution, including the growth of international arbitration and the increasing role of government bodies in insolvency proceedings to recover statutory dues. Her engagement with these emerging trends ensures her clients receive advice that is both current and forward-thinking, positioning them advantageously in an ever-changing legal landscape.
At Lex Chambers, Krishna represents a new generation of litigators who combine intellectual rigor with practical wisdom, approaching each dispute not as a mere legal challenge but as an opportunity to advance the boundaries of legal thinking while serving her clients' best interests. Her distinctive approach building from first principles while remaining deeply grounded in practical realities exemplifies the firm's commitment to innovative yet principled legal practice.
