Cyril Amarchand Mangaldas partner Faraz Alam Sagar has moved to CMS IndusLaw as Equity Partner and Head of Dispute Resolution and White-Collar Crimes (Mumbai).
His induction marks another major lateral shift from CAM, signalling the continued reshaping of leadership across India’s top corporate law firms.
Sagar has more than 20 years of experience covering cross-border disputes, sanctions-related issues, regulatory enforcement work, investigations, and complex advisory matters. His career reflects a mix of international exposure and deep domestic understanding.
His move is also viewed as part of a broader trend of high-profile exits from CAM, showing how several leading firms are restructuring their partner-level talent pool to strengthen specific practice areas.
At CMS INDUSLAW, Sagar is expected to enhance the firm’s overall capability in key areas such as:
- Cross-border litigation and international arbitration
- White-collar crime, investigations, and enforcement actions
- Sanctions advisory and complex regulatory compliance
The firm sees this appointment as a major step in expanding and deepening its international disputes, white-collar defence, and regulatory advisory practice, especially in Mumbai, which is a crucial hub for financial and corporate investigations.
