Bunker signs deal to extend into India

Nitin Sarin, advocate in air and space law at the Indian company Sarin & Co said. " We firmly believe that the complementary strengths of each firm, once combined, will provide clients, located in India and the Arabian Gulf, with prompt, comprehensive, affordable and practical legal and financial advice unsurpassed in the profession.”

With India’s aviation market forecasted to grow at exponential rates over the next 20 years and requiring in excess of 1300 new aircraft, the firms are well-placed to meet and exceed the requirements of aviation operators (commercial, corporate and private), governmental authorities and related organisations here and abroad.

As part of the Affiliation, the firms intend to initiate a series of lectures open to representatives from within the Indian aviation industry covering a range of topics including aviation law, insurance and finance under the guidance of Dr. Donald H. Bunker, currently an Adjunct Professor of Law at McGill University’s Institute of Air and Space Law in Montreal.

The signing of the Affiliation Agreement, which took place in the office of Sarin & Co., Chandigarh, India, was presided over by Mr. Scot Slessor, Consul-General of Canada (Chandigarh), and Mr. Chief Justice S.S. Sodhi, President, Sarin Memorial Legal Aid Foundation.
