Verity Law Chambers Launches: A New Focus on AI, Data, Privacy and Technology Law

The Indian legal industry is entering a period where technology is no longer a specialist subject for a small group of lawyers. Artificial intelligence, data, cybersecurity, platform regulation and digital transformation are becoming central to how businesses operate—and, increasingly, to the legal questions they face.

The launch of Verity Law Chambers, founded by Kapil Chaudhary and Sushmita Chaudhary, is an interesting development in this changing landscape.

The independent chambers, based in New Delhi and Noida, advises Boards, General Counsel and founders across areas including technology, AI, data, privacy, cybersecurity, corporate governance, employment and labour law, and commercial litigation.

Why the timing matters

AI adoption is moving rapidly from experimentation to real business use.

Organisations are now asking difficult questions:

• How should AI systems be governed?
• What regulatory requirements apply to AI-driven products?
• How should organisations manage privacy and cybersecurity risks?
• Who is accountable when AI-assisted decisions create legal or operational risk?
• How should technology contracts, software licensing and platform operations evolve?

These are not purely technical questions. They require a combination of legal judgment, regulatory understanding, business context and technology awareness.

That is where practices focused on technology and AI governance can play an increasingly important role.

A practice built around technology and business

Verity Law Chambers plans to advise on AI governance and regulatory readiness, data privacy and cybersecurity, technology and platform regulation, software licensing and technology contracts, media, gaming and entertainment regulation, disputes and international arbitration, board advisory and fractional General Counsel mandates.

Kapil Chaudhary brings around 26 years of legal leadership, including senior in-house roles at IBM, Autodesk, Twitter, Flutter International/Junglee Games and Info Edge, followed by private-practice experience as a partner at Dentons Link Legal.

Sushmita Chaudhary has practised since 2002, with a focus on employment and labour law, POSH compliance and investigations, and commercial litigation.

Together, their backgrounds reflect an important trend: legal advice is increasingly expected to be commercially practical, technologically informed and closely connected to how organisations actually operate.

From legal advice to legal decision-making

The evolution of LegalTech is also changing expectations around legal services.

AI-powered legal platforms can assist with research, document analysis, contract review, compliance workflows and information retrieval. But technology does not eliminate the need for lawyers. Instead, it increases the value of judgment, validation, context and accountability.

The future is therefore unlikely to be about Law versus AI.

It is more likely to be about Law + AI.

The strongest legal ecosystems will combine experienced practitioners with intelligent technology, structured workflows, reliable research and appropriate human oversight.

At LexVio.ai, we see this convergence as one of the defining opportunities for the legal industry: enabling legal professionals to work with AI while keeping accuracy, traceability, privacy, governance and human judgment at the centre.

Looking ahead

Verity Law Chambers also plans to engage with academic institutions and government bodies on legal and technology-related capacity building, including AI skilling and enablement.

That broader perspective is particularly relevant.

The transformation of the legal profession will not depend only on better software. It will also depend on preparing lawyers, institutions, policymakers and businesses to understand and responsibly use emerging technologies.

The launch of Verity Law Chambers is therefore more than the beginning of a new legal practice. It is another signal of where the industry is heading—toward a legal environment where technology, regulation, governance and professional judgment increasingly intersect.
