Cyril Shroff on Building a Legal Empire, Future of AI, Foreign law firms and 2035 vision | Legacy Series

What does it take to build one of India’s most influential law firms? How has Indian corporate law transformed over the last three decades? And what is the future of lawyers in the age of AI and global competition? In this episode of The Daily Lawyer – Legacy Series (in collaboration with M/s Solomon & Co.), we sit down with Mr. Cyril Shroff, Managing Partner of Cyril Amarchand Mangaldas, widely regarded as one of the most influential figures in Indian corporate law and M&A. Known as India's M&A King, Mr. Shroff discusses the evolution of Indian corporate law and why "emotional intelligence" is more critical than intellect when scaling a firm to almost 1500+ lawyers. From his early decision to pursue law to leading one of India’s largest full-service law firms, Mr. Shroff reflects on: The evolution of Indian corporate governance and capital markets Why M&A does not end when the deal is signed The entry of foreign law firms into India Building institutions through emotional intelligence The “Amarchand University” model of law firm growth AI, automation, and the irreplaceable skills of future lawyers … and so much more! This conversation is part of our Legacy Series, created to preserve the life stories and insights of legal professionals who have shaped India’s legal and business landscape. Presented in collaboration with M/s Solomon & Co., a boutique, full-service law firm based in Mumbai, India, whose ‘legacy’ stretches across four generations and over 115 years of legal practice.  Connect with M/s Solomon and co. - https://solomonco.in/  LinkedIn - https://in.linkedin.com/company/solomon-co-advocates-solicitors 📌 Subscribe to The Daily Lawyer for conversations with India’s leading legal minds.
