'Helios Legal', A New Age Boutique Law Firm Launched By Ex-Kay Legal Partner Janhvi Pradhan Deshmukh

A law graduate from Government Law College and a Masters from the UK, Janhvi believes that lawyers have to move away from their traditional role and don various hats to work closely with the senior management of companies to understand keenly the intricacies of each business, the challenges faced by businesses and help them prioritize their legal requirements at each stage. Janhvi is known for her work on Cross border and Domestic Transaction Advisory, investor negotiations, Media and Entertainment Laws, Sports Laws, Data Privacy Laws, Technology Laws, Employment Laws and General Corporate and Commercial Laws.

Ex-Partners from Kay Legal, Amit Karkhanis, who recently launched his Independent Counsel Practice and Hemant Manjani who practices independently in Delhi, form the team of Off-Counsels at Helios Legal, which completes the top bracket at Helios and will offer a full range of legal services.

Helios Legal is working on offering an AI based data risk audit model in association with a UK based company focused on identifying the risk of exposure faced by companies using data on a large level.

"It is an exciting era for the legal profession to witness the meeting of technology with data privacy issues and I am looking forwarding to delving deep into understanding what the field of Artificial Intelligence can offer to identify and mitigate data exposure risks" says Janhvi.

Janhvi is also a certified Prevention of Sexual Harassment expert and specialises in training the Internal Committees of organisations and counselling women employees and students on sexual harassment at work and educational institutes. She is passionate about data privacy issues, gender neutrality and women entrepreneurship and loves speaking about these at various forums.
