Founder
Karan Seth is the Founder of Karan Seth Law Chambers, bringing over 17 years of experience in high-stakes legal practice across all stages of criminal proceedings—from initial police investigations to complex litigation before the Supreme Court of India.
In his independent practice, Karan has advised and represented a diverse set of clients, including individuals, professionals, and business entities, in sensitive and high-stakes matters involving significant legal and reputational consequences. His work is particularly focused on white-collar and financial crime, including complex matters involving financial fraud, regulatory violations, and other multi-agency investigations involving agencies such as the Central Bureau of Investigation and the Enforcement Directorate.
He routinely engages at critical stages of proceedings—from investigations and summons to bail, trial strategy, and appellate litigation—often in matters involving multi-agency coordination and complex evidentiary frameworks.
Karan’s practice is focused on criminal law and legal strategy, with particular expertise in bail and anticipatory bail in high-stakes matters. He regularly appears independently and, where required, works closely with senior advocates in complex and high-stakes matters. He appears before the Supreme Court of India, various High Courts, and trial courts across jurisdictions, and is known for navigating matters that require both courtroom advocacy and careful strategic planning outside it.
He adopts a client-centric approach to legal strategy, recognising that no two matters are alike. Working closely with each client, he develops tailored, outcome-driven strategies rather than relying on standardised approaches. His work is defined by precision, timing, and execution to secure effective results at every stage—from the police station to the Supreme Court.
He has also served as Counsel for the Union of India before the Supreme Court of India, handling a wide spectrum of government matters, and has been associated with the criminal law team at Karanjawala & Company, where he was involved in complex and high-profile cases, including matters involving serious criminal allegations, economic offences, and multi-agency investigations.
