About
One practice, built across two legal systems.
A data privacy consulting practice founded and led by Abhishek Bansiwal, an Indian-qualified lawyer. The work spans the EU, UK, US, Gulf, India, and APAC, with a specialism in the GDPR–DPDPA corridor that most privacy consultancies cover from only one side.
The route here
01
Law, first
Qualified as a lawyer in India and built the habit that still defines the practice: read the statute, not the summary of the statute.
02
Into data privacy
Moved from general practice into privacy full-time, programme operations, assessments, and the unglamorous work of making compliance real inside a business.
03
LL.M., Trinity College Dublin
Deepened the EU side: European data protection law studied where it's enforced, in one of Europe's regulatory capitals.
04
The practice today
A consulting practice serving clients across the EU, UK, US, India, and Australia: appointed DPO work, DPIAs, transfer suites, certification programmes, and privacy operations, delivered hands-on.

How we work
The rules the practice runs on.
Practitioner, not slideware
The advice comes from running live privacy programmes daily: DSARs, DPIAs, regulator correspondence. Not from a methodology deck.
Honest scoping
If you don't need it, you'll hear that. If someone else is better placed for a piece of work, you'll get the referral.
Documentation that survives scrutiny
Everything is built to be shown to a regulator, an auditor, or a procurement team without a rewrite.
Both sides of the corridor
GDPR practice in the EU, legal qualification in India, companies bridging the two get one advisor instead of two translations.
