Indian law firm J. Sagar Associates has added a second partner in a week after welcoming back disputes pro Harshavardhan Abburi in Hyderabad. He becomes the firm’s only partner based in the southern city.

Last week, the firm added corporate partner Rakesh Warrier in Bengaluru.

Abburi’s return marks his second stint at JSA, having earlier been with the firm between 2010 and 2012. In the interim, he worked at Fox Mandal & Associates and ran his own practice.

Abburi “promises to bolster the firm's litigation prowess in the region”, the firm said in a statement. His expertise spans litigation, corporate commercial matters, employment and labour laws, and corporate advisory.
