MVAC (Formerly Miglani Varma & Co.)

What MVAC (Formerly Miglani Varma & Co.) does

MVAC (formerly Miglani Varma & Co.) is a privately held, full-service law firm headquartered in New Delhi, India, founded in 2015 by Pratyush Miglani and Nikhil Verma, who serve as Founding & Managing Partners. The firm delivers legal and advisory services across 17+ practice areas — including commercial litigation, international and domestic arbitration (before forums such as SIAC, ICC, and DIAC), corporate and business advisory, tax advisory and disputes, insolvency and restructuring, international transactions and trade, labour and employment, regulatory compliance, private placements and M&A, data protection and privacy, banking and finance, consumer and recovery litigation, general corporate, intellectual property, statutory compliance, e-commerce and digital transactions, and maritime and shipping law.

The firm serves three primary client segments — startups, SMEs, and multinational corporations — providing services that span the corporate lifecycle from entity formation through cross-border transactions and dispute resolution. Delivery is executed through a horizontally organized network of 200+ lawyers covering 500+ cities across India, with a network office in Melbourne, Australia supporting international mandates. Revenue is generated via professional services billing for advisory, litigation, arbitration, and compliance engagements; pricing is not publicly disclosed.

Underlying the delivery model, MVAC states that it uses "cutting-edge legal technology and data science" to track market positioning, internal structures, competitor practices, and the evolution of policy and law across mandates. The firm operates a partner-level relationship with the Thomson Reuters Foundation through which it provides legal assistance for Foundation-supported projects, and is a signatory to Indian and international anti-bribery compliance frameworks. With 14 internal employees implied as back-office/support staff and revenue economics spread across the affiliated lawyer network, MVAC resembles a mid-tier, network-orchestrated Indian law firm pursuing a full-service, multi-segment strategy rather than a deep specialist boutique.
