Our history

Before starting Shah Litigation, Vishal represented the world’s top companies in some of their highest-profile matters involving employment-related disputes.

What sets us apart

  • Insider Knowledge: We spent nearly a decade representing Fortune 100 companies. We know how they think, strategize, and defend themselves. That insider perspective is now your advantage.
  • Boutique Attention, BigLaw Excellence: You get personal attention combined with elite-level advocacy. We focus on a handful of cases at a time, ensuring each client receives the dedication they deserve.
  • Trial-Focused Approach: While many employment lawyers settle early, we prepare every case for trial. That trial-ready posture creates leverage in negotiations.
  • Selective Case Intake: We accept fewer than 5% of the cases we review, so every client gets our full attention.

Our Process

Strategic. Selective. Successful.

We start with rigorous case evaluation. We accept fewer than 5% of potential cases and before we accept any matter, we conduct thorough interviews, review all relevant documents, and research the applicable law. When we say yes, we’re committed to fighting for you.
