The team

Our lawyers

Small enough that a senior lawyer takes your first call, and staffed so that the person who assessed your matter is the person who runs it.

Quick answer

Every matter is led by a senior advocate who takes the first consultation personally and remains responsible for it throughout.

Consultations and court work are conducted in Tamil or English.

How matters are staffed

The lawyer who takes your first consultation is the lawyer responsible for your matter. That sounds obvious; in practice a great many firms route the first call to an intake person and hand the file to whoever is free.

Junior counsel assist on drafting, research and procedural appearances, which keeps costs down, but the strategy, the hearings that matter and the client conversations stay with the lead advocate. You will always know who that is.

Matrimonial and family. Divorce, custody, maintenance and settlement work, including cross-border matters.Criminal. Bail, quashing and trial defence, with same-day availability for arrests.Civil and property. Title work, injunctions, recovery and succession.Corporate and IP. Registrations, drafting, insolvency and employment compliance.

Language and accessibility

Consultations, pleadings and court appearances are handled in Tamil or English, whichever you are more comfortable with. For clients whose family members are involved in the discussion, we are happy to conduct the consultation in both.

For clients outside India, consultations run by video or phone at a time that works across time zones, and most steps in a matter can be handled through a properly drafted power of attorney without travel.

What we will tell you honestly

That your case is weak, if it is. That the settlement on the table is better than the judgment you are likely to get. That the matter you want to file will cost more than it can realistically recover. These conversations lose us work and they are the reason clients return.

Bar Council of India rules prevent advocates from advertising, claiming success rates or naming clients. We take those rules seriously, which is why this page describes how we work rather than making claims we would rather you test in the first conversation.

Our advocates

Who you will actually be sitting with

Six advocates enrolled with the Bar Council of Tamil Nadu & Puducherry. Each entry sets out enrolment, what that lawyer actually does day to day, and the courts they appear before, so you know who will handle your matter before you call.

G. Yuvaraj, advocate at YUVA Law Firm, Chennai Bar Council of Tamil Nadu & Puducherry

G. Yuvaraj B.A., LL.B.

Advocate: Divorce law
  • Enrolled advocate with the Bar Council of Tamil Nadu & Puducherry.
  • Divorce work in Chennai: mutual consent and contested petitions under the Hindu Marriage Act, the Special Marriage Act and other personal laws, jurisdiction, the cooling-off period and mediation strategy.
  • Maintenance, custody and access, domestic-violence relief, and settlement drafting where assets and liabilities need a court-ready schedule before Tamil Nadu family courts.
  • Has personally led 350+ matrimonial listings, filing rounds and evidence-stage hearings across Chennai, Tamil Nadu and Puducherry.

Yuvaraj leads the firm's divorce instructions with a hearing-first mindset: petitions, interim applications and trial bundles are prepared so the facts, exhibits and legal grounds read the same way from first motion through to judgment or settlement.

You get plain guidance in Tamil or English on timelines, costs and which court to file in: whether the matter is mutual consent, contested, or an NRI jurisdiction question.

P. Vishnu Prasad, advocate at YUVA Law Firm, Chennai Bar Council of Tamil Nadu & Puducherry

P. Vishnu Prasad B.A., LL.B.

Advocate: Civil & criminal litigation

  • Civil: money suits, injunctions, property and contract disputes, attachment and execution before district and subordinate courts in Chennai and Tamil Nadu.
  • Criminal: bail and remand filings, protest petitions, witness affidavits and trial-stage briefing under senior counsel, with Tamil and English liaison on dates and undertakings.
  • Has driven 350+ civil and criminal file cycles: drafting rounds, bail and remand filings, and contested hearing dates.

Vishnu Prasad splits his time between civil recovery and property-heavy suits on one side and criminal instructions that need fast, accurate paper on the other, so exhibits and pleadings stay consistent across forums.

His focus is hearing readiness: chamber applications, surety documentation and execution steps aligned with the court's orders, so matters move without avoidable adjournments.

R. Yuva Rani, advocate at YUVA Law Firm, Chennai Bar Council of Tamil Nadu & Puducherry

R. Yuva Rani B.A., LL.M.

Advocate: Family law
  • Enrolled advocate with the Bar Council of Tamil Nadu & Puducherry.
  • Divorce (mutual and contested), judicial separation, custody and access, maintenance, domestic-violence relief and guardianship before Tamil Nadu family courts.
  • Mediation-sensitive drafting where a settlement is realistic; equally strong on interim applications, welfare-report responses and evidence-led hearings when positions diverge.
  • Has appeared in 300+ family-law stages (petitions, interim dates and evidence hearings) across Chennai and Tamil Nadu.

Yuva Rani handles the full span of matrimonial work: first instructions and advice on jurisdiction, through trial-ready bundles, to executing family court orders.

She explains the procedure, the risks and the realistic outcome in Tamil or English, and works with the rest of the firm on child-centred strategy where custody and access are in dispute.

S. Sandhya B.A., LL.B.

  • Tax: GST and income-tax assessments, appeals and tribunal work in Chennai and Tamil Nadu, coordinated with chartered accountants where the brief needs it.
  • Property and commercial litigation: title and possession disputes, developer-buyer and lease agreements, specific performance, injunctions and execution steps for businesses and individuals.
  • Has followed 280+ tax, property and commercial file stages, including scrutiny replies, civil hearings and compliance-driven timelines.

Sandhya's work centres on revenue law and asset-heavy disputes: lining up notices, orders and appellate drafts with the underlying accounts, contracts and sale deeds so a court or tribunal sees one coherent story.

She supports clients running parallel civil and tax threads, keeping exhibits, valuation charts and correspondence indexed so commercial and property matters move without procedural gaps.

C. Sushmitha B.A., LL.B.

Advocate: Criminal law & taxation

  • Criminal: Magistrate and Sessions Court work, bail and anticipatory-bail papers, FIR-related affidavits, charge-sheet scrutiny and allied drafting under senior appearance.
  • Tax: assessment objections, appellate memos and tribunal briefing where an investigation overlaps revenue issues (economic offences, asset tracing) with indexed exhibits and timelines.
  • Has prepared 280+ criminal and tax-linked pleading bundles, chamber applications and hearing notes.

Sushmitha bridges investigation-heavy criminal files and revenue paperwork where the facts sit on both desks, keeping witness summaries, seizure memos and tax notices cross-referenced so the defence stays consistent.

  • Has followed 220+ civil files, including interlocutory and execution stages, before Tamil Nadu district and subordinate courts and allied tribunals.

Nithya's practice is civil-law led: plaints, written statements, replications, affidavits and chamber applications, where pleadings, limitation, valuation and court-fee compliance have to be right before the first effective hearing.

She regularly handles recovery for businesses and individuals (loan and hand-loan paper, summary procedures where they apply) along with easement and boundary claims, tenancy and illegal-detention matters, and DRT instructions where senior counsel sets the strategy.

FAQs

Working with us: practical questions

Will I deal with the same lawyer throughout?+

Yes for the lead advocate. Junior counsel may assist on drafting and procedural dates, which keeps your costs down, but responsibility for the matter does not move.

Can I request a consultation in Tamil?+

Yes. Say so when you call and the consultation, and the matter, will be conducted in Tamil.

Do you take matters outside Chennai?+

We appear before courts in Chennai and, where the matter warrants it, elsewhere in Tamil Nadu and before the Madras High Court. For matters far outside our reach we will say so rather than take the file.
