Background-
India Business Law Journal has named Mayer Brown a “Key Player” for its India-related legal work in its 2026 report, the fourth year running the firm has secured a spot on the list. The recognition sets Mayer Brown apart among international law firms known for handling India-linked legal work.
Behind the ranking sits a detailed evaluation process. IBLJ editors spoke at length with in-house counsel focused on India and partners at Indian law firms, then factored in submissions from international firms plus their own reporting and interviews. That mix of input gives the ranking credibility among firms tracked for India-related practice strength.
The honor points to years of groundwork Mayer Brown has laid in its India practice. Clients rely on the firm to steer them through demanding, high-value work across Capital Markets, Corporate M&A, Banking and Finance, Dispute Resolution, and International Trade, sectors where cross-border deals often carry added legal complexity.
Mayer Brown counsels businesses operating in India and acts for a broad client base there, including large family-run conglomerates, corporations, and government-owned as well as private banks, handling their legal needs beyond India’s borders. That role makes the firm a connector between Indian institutions and the international legal systems they encounter abroad.
The India group’s grasp of India’s legal terrain forms the backbone of Mayer Brown’s practice, put to work helping global clients manage legal matters connected to India. That depth of knowledge has cemented long-standing relationships with Indian corporates and institutions on cross-border deals, disputes and regulatory work.
Four consecutive years of this recognition speak to a solid track record, grounded in client trust and a demonstrated hand at the legal complexity cross-border India work involves.
