This led her to set up NRI Legal Services, a global footprint reaching out to Indian diaspora in the year 2000. Excellent leadership, a perfectionist’s attitude, thorough professionalism, an empathetic & sensitive approach and impeccable communication skills with people in a multi-cultural environment are traits that lend a high level of credibility and competence to her working style which led her to explore other verticals in International market. She was pioneer in setting up Legal Process Outsourcing in the year 2007-2008 when outsourcing was at a nascent stage. Under her leadership, Mindsprings Solutions India Pvt Ltd used to provide background legal support to USA based legal firms up until outsourcing laws changed in USA. She also partnered with a Canadian Law firm for filing immigration applications for Canada. However, this venture had to be given back feet because of immense success and the need of her bandwidth to be used for NRI Legal Services which was propelled for meteoric success. She has three children and all of them are being trained under her able guidance for entering the legal profession.
