Every institution has a beginning.
Every institution has a beginning — ours began with a question: What if legal services could be both powerful and genuinely personal?
Nibtara was founded in New Delhi by Adv. Rishabh Singh, a litigator who had spent his early years moving between high-pressure corporate matters and the quieter, more human work of advising small businesses. He noticed something simple but rarely addressed: the institutional firms had the scale, the boutique firms had the warmth, and almost no one had both.
The firm was built to close that gap — to bring institutional rigour to founder-stage work, and founder-stage attentiveness to institutional clients.
From the beginning, the practice was structured for the rhythms of modern, cross-border companies — particularly US startups looking to extend their legal bench without expanding their burn. We hire senior counsel, train deeply on US contract conventions, and run engagements with the cadence that founders and in-house teams expect: short response times, clear scoping, and writing that reads like it was drafted next door, not across an ocean.
Today Nibtara works with founders, in-house legal teams and US firms across corporate, IP, compliance and litigation support — and our standard remains the one we started with: powerful, and genuinely personal.
