Founding Counsel

Himanshu Soni is the founder of Mayach & Co. He is completing his LLB at Law Centre-1, Faculty of Law, University of Delhi, graduating in 2026.

Mayach & Co. was started because of a gap that is hard to miss once you look for it. NRIs and foreign nationals dealing with Indian law — a matrimonial dispute where the spouse is in India, a property that has to be given up as part of an alimony settlement, an inheritance dispute playing out across two countries — have very few lawyers speaking to them directly. Most of what exists is either inaccessible or not written for someone sitting in London or New York trying to understand what Indian law actually does to their situation. That gap is what this chamber is built to address.

Before law, Himanshu studied agriculture at Rama University — driven by an interest in land, environment, and the natural world. That background turned out to be a better entry point into law than it might seem. Property law, intellectual property, consumer disputes, FMCG litigation, merger and acquisition — everything connects back to law once you look closely enough. The decision to pursue law rather than an MBA came from the recognition that the legal side of these problems is where the real leverage is.

The longer ambition includes pro bono work — the belief that a practice built on substance should eventually give something back to the community it operates in.
