Swaraj Law Associates is a proprietorship law firm founded and led by Advocate Swetha H.C., situated in the central business district of Bengaluru. Over fourteen years of disciplined practice, the firm has earned a reputation for handling complex legal matters with an out-of-the-box approach — simplifying intricate disputes and guiding clients to clarity, while remaining strictly compliant.

Clients across banking, non-banking finance, manufacturing, and individual sectors come to us — often after exhausting other avenues. We listen, we strategise, and we litigate or negotiate the outcome that fits their objective. The firm is supported by four junior advocates, dedicated office and system administration, and an associated network providing service throughout Karnataka.
