When Mr. Akash, a Luxembourg national and OCI cardholder, sought urgent legal assistance regarding the parental formalities of his daughter, born via international surrogacy in Vellore, time was of the essence. With documents from four different countries and laws from three, he needed clarity, speed, and assurance that his child’s future was legally secured. Every moment counted as International Travel, Embassy Appointments, Government and Court Documentation were on the line.
The matter involved multiple jurisdictions—India, Luxembourg, Kyrgyzstan, and Northern Cyprus—and required precise, up-to-date knowledge of international and Indian law. In just two hours, our team provided a complete legal analysis of the surrogacy and citizenship landscape—reviewing the Surrogacy (Regulation) Act, 2021, the Citizenship Act, 1955, and the applicable foreign laws. We confirmed that the arrangement, conducted entirely outside India, did not fall under Indian surrogacy restrictions and that the child, born in Vellore for embassy convenience, would not acquire Indian citizenship. With this clarity, Mr. Akash could confidently proceed with full parental formalities, secure in the knowledge that all legal bases were covered.
Advocacy is not just about appearing in court—it is about showing up for your client when it matters most. It is about staying alert, updated, and committed to delivering solutions without delay. In this case, we didn’t just meet a deadline—we helped a father complete a dream responsibly, lawfully, and peacefully.
Great advocacy is not measured by hours billed, but by lives changed through timely and thoughtful service. Because sometimes, two hours is all it takes to make a world of difference.
