Singh and Singh was founded by Maninder Singh, senior advocate (former additional solicitor general of India), and Prathiba M Singh. Mr Singh was designated as senior advocate in 2008 and has since retired from Singh and Singh. In 2012, Singh and Singh was converted into an LLP with five partners. However, upon the designation of Ms Singh as senior advocate in December 2012, the LLP was reduced to four partners. Since then, Singh and Singh has been running as a professionally managed firm, and currently has five partners and three associate partners, each an expert in their respective practice area. The firm also has over 40 attorneys and patent agents.
The expertise and experience brought in by the founding partners, coupled with their desire to create a youthful and energetic law firm, have inspired the aggregation of a dynamic team of lawyers and professionals within the firm, who continue to operate and advance the legacy of Singh and Singh.
