I have had the pleasure of partnering with Tejus and his team for almost a decade. A consistent client-centred approach, a very professional and thorough view of the issues at hand and a solution oriented- mindset has been a delight. I wish the team the very best as they continue to add value to the clients and the community.
Calm and thoroughly professional with a problem solving demeanour is what C K Juris personifies. When I first met Tejus Cherian, I was circumspect that a legal professional could be so passive and willing to hear! What stands out in all my interactions with the CKJ team is that their approach is to resolve issues rather than letting it snowball into an out-of-control situation. It is always reassuring when the team is very particular about getting their facts cross-checked and validated, with independent diligence. They earned my trust swiftly and acted with responsibility to sustain the integrity of their relationship with their clients. CK Juris provides the sounding board platform with panache!
I had a great experience working with Tejus and the CK Juris team on a cross-border acquisition of a family-owned business. He helped us manage through the specific intricacies of the Indian market, as well as a complex transaction structure to meet the needs of both parties.
Tejus & team are adept in understanding the complex business functions, our multiple company structure and different countries we operate in. The team is extremely knowledgeable, resourceful, easy to communicate and highly responsive. They've supported us in mitigating legal risks/compliance issues, drafted/negotiated contracts, guided us through multiple business acquisitions, coordinated with international law firms etc., to name a few. Proudly associated with CK Juris for about 7 years and looking forward to many more.
