Looking at ALMT having Best Friends relation with Clyde & Co which is one of the largest global law firms in the area of shipping law, I thought this move would be the best opportunity for me. I’ll be working along with Ananjan Mitter (Co-founder) and taking forward the shipping department to a different level”..Gautam is enrolled as a Solicitor in the Supreme Court of England and is enrolled as an Advocate in the Bar Council of Maharashtra & Goa. He is also a Member of the International Bar Association, American Bar Association and the Singapore Chamber of Maritime Arbitration (SCMA)..ALMT is ramping its practices big time in Delhi as well, with last month Vineet Aneja joining ALMT Legal from Luthra & Luthra to set up ALMT’s corporate practice office in New Delhi.
