While the legal and compliance structure of India has an impact on individuals and organizations within its borders, many citizens and companies do not have the knowledge or means to navigate through its complexities. The process is not clear, and costs are unpredictable. Access to good professionals can only happen through their network. Kushal Chakrbrty has been working near this reality for many years. His domain of operation lies at the intersection of law, technology, and business, where inefficiency is not a theory but a reality.
Chakrbrty’s foray into the world of legal-tech wasn’t a pitch for a startup. It began with exposure. Through professional engagements with legal practitioners, founders, and MSMEs, he observed a pattern that cut across sectors. Legal and compliance services were fragmented, hard to track, and intimidating for those without prior experience. Even motivated entrepreneurs struggled to understand what they needed, whom to trust, and what a fair price looked like.
This gap between need and access became the foundation of his entrepreneurial path.
Kushal Chakrbrty created Lawyaar.in to help others find accessible solutions to their legal, compliance and business challenges. He intended to create a service that would simplify the complexities of these processes for individuals starting their own businesses, small businesses that are growing rapidly and larger employers who may have limited resources available. Reduce confusion, introduce transparency, and create a system where trust is structural rather than assumed.
Unlike other platforms that function as a lead marketplace, Lawyaar is an ecosystem. That is intentional. Lead marketplaces often prioritise quantity over quality, leaving users confused and professionals underappreciated. Lawyaar is committed to clarity throughout the service experience. Users understand exactly what they are paying for, professionals understand exactly what they are providing, and the progress is traceable rather than opaque.
At its root is pricing certainty. The legal services sector has traditionally been plagued by uncertainty regarding pricing. The absence of clarity makes people delay and push compliance as a secondary consideration until issues arise. By establishing norms and upfront pricing, Lawyaar hopes to remove the psychological barrier which has traditionally kept people and MSMEs away from legal assistance.
Another important aspect of the platform is service tracking. It is often not the task that causes stress for users, but the lack of communication. Cases are handled slowly, and there is no accountability on the part of the service providers. Lawyaar solves this problem by ensuring that there is service tracking on the platform.
For professionals, the platform offers something equally important. Scale without dilution. Many qualified legal and compliance professionals struggle to grow beyond personal networks. Lawyaar gives them structured demand, operations, and a technology layer that enables them to focus on good work instead of the chaos associated with acquiring new clients. This is not about improving their judgment, but improving the systems they use.
Chakrbrty’s approach reflects his broader philosophy. Technology should not simplify law by stripping it of rigour. It should simplify access while preserving standards. Lawyaar does not position itself against traditional legal practice. It positions itself as an infrastructure that allows good practice to reach more people.
The platform serves a wide spectrum of users. Individuals requiring basic legal services. Startups dealing with incorporation, compliance, and initial agreements. MSMEs balancing regulatory requirements while focusing on growth. For all these groups, the core issue stays the same. Legal requirements are imperative but disorganised. This is where the benefit of Lawyaar kicks in.
From a business point of view, Chakrbrty has been quite measured in its approach towards how it wants to scale its business as a company. Lawyaar is not focusing on rapid scaling in terms of marketing its services. Rather, its focus has been on creating repeatable processes in terms of its services and getting the users to trust it in terms of consistency in its performance in a space where its credibility could be easily compromised.
According to industry watchers, the emergence of such legal-tech solutions as Lawyaar is a sign that the development of legal-tech in India is undergoing a paradigm shift. The first generation of legal-tech is about document digitization or lead generation. The second generation is about creating a full-stack ecosystem. Lawyaar is a product of the second generation.
Indeed, Chakrbrty is himself a low-key leader and has an operational knowledge base rather than an overt positioning one. He speaks often about access, efficiency, and fairness, but avoids framing legal-tech as disruption for its own sake. The system, in his view, does not need to be torn down. It needs to be made usable.
Looking ahead, his vision for Lawyaar is clear. To deliver accessibility to legal and compliance services on a wide scale without sacrificing the overall quality of services. To provide professionals with tools and resources to enable them to grow sustainably, without relinquishing their rights to a unique service model.
As regulatory complexity increases and entrepreneurship expands beyond metros, the demand for structured legal access will only grow. Platforms that succeed will be those that reduce anxiety rather than add noise.
Kushal Chakrbrty is building for that future. Quietly, deliberately, and with an understanding that in law, trust is not a feature. It is the product.
