The Lawyer Network is delighted to announce that Harish Salve of 'HNS Office' has joined the Lawyer Network. Jason has joined the Lawyer Network as our exclusive Dispute Resolution member in India.
Salve qualified as a Chartered Accountant and practiced as a CA specializing in taxation before qualifying as a lawyer and moving to the legal profession. He was inspired by Nani Palkhivala, an eminent tax lawyer from Bombay.
He began his legal career in 1980 as an intern at J. B. Dadachandji & Co first as an intern and later as a full-time lawyer. During this time, he assisted Palkivala in the Minerva Mills case (case citation: AIR 1980 SC 1789).[2] Salve was later designated as a Senior Counsel by the Delhi High Court.
Salve worked with former Attorney General, Soli Sorabjee from 1980–1986.[3] He declined to be nominated for a second 3-year term due to "personal reasons" when his first term ended in November 2002.[4] He later clarified that his wife was unhappy about him bringing work home and continuing to be worried as he watched the evening news.[5]
Salve was appointed Amicus Curiae by the Supreme Court in cases mostly relating to the preservation of the environment. However, in 2011, he recused himself from this position during a hearing on illegal mining, on the grounds that he had previously appeared for one or more of the parties.
In 2013, Salve was admitted to the English Bar and he subsequently joined the Blackstone Chambers.
