Corporate Advisory | Your External General Counsel
Business doesn’t happen in a courtroom; it happens in daily operations. Contracts are signed, vendors are onboarded, board meetings are held, and policies are enforced.
Satyarth Legal serves as the “External General Counsel” for companies that need high-level legal support without the overhead of a large in-house team. We handle the “legal plumbing” of your organization, ensuring that your day-to-day operations are compliant, robust, and efficient.
Who Is This For?
SMEs & Mid-Market Companies: Who are too big to ignore legal risks but too small for a full-time legal department.
Subsidiaries of MNCs: Who need a local partner to manage Indian compliance.
Large Conglomerates: Who need specialized support for specific business units.
Scope of Services
1. Commercial Contracts We move beyond Google templates. We draft and negotiate custom agreements that fit your specific trade:
Revenue Contracts: Customer agreements, Master Service Agreements (MSA).
Supply Chain: Vendor agreements, manufacturing contracts, logistics support.
Distribution: Franchise agreements, reseller agreements, and agency contracts.
2. Company Secretarial (CS) & Governance The Companies Act, 2013 imposes strict duties on Directors. We ensure you stay on the right side of the law:
Drafting minutes of Board and Shareholder meetings.
Filing annual returns (ROC filings).
Advising on Related Party Transactions (RPTs)—a common area of scrutiny in India.
3. Regulatory Liaison We act as the face of your company before regulators. Whether it is responding to a notice from the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) or seeking a clarification from the RBI, we handle the correspondence.
4. Policies & Handbooks We help you build the internal rulebook:
Code of Conduct.
Whistleblower Policies.
Anti-Bribery & Anti-Corruption (ABAC) policies.
Common Risks
Standard Terms & Conditions: Many companies copy-paste Terms & Conditions from competitors. This is dangerous. We draft terms that actually reflect your delivery model and payment cycles.
Contract Lifecycle Management: Signing a contract and forgetting it is a major risk. We help you track renewal dates and expiry clauses so you don’t get locked into bad deals automatically.
Why Satyarth Legal?
We are integrated, not distant. Most law firms are “reactive”—they wait for you to call with a problem. We are “proactive.” We alert you when a law changes that affects your industry. We review your contract templates annually. We view ourselves as an extension of your management team, not just outside consultants.
