About Abhinav
Abhinav Tripathi trained in two legal systems. He completed an LL.B. at Chanakya National Law University in 2014 after beginning his legal studies in 2009. He then traveled to the United States and earned an LL.M. from Washington University in St. Louis in 2015.
Tripathi began his professional career at the Law Offices of Vivek Malik as a law clerk in 2015. He handled research and drafting assignments early on. Those tasks exposed him to the day-to-day mechanics of client matters and courtroom preparation.
In 2016 he moved into an in-house role as legal counsel at Gemini Solutions Pvt. Ltd. That post offered a different perspective. He worked inside a corporate environment and gained exposure to transactional processes and internal legal workflows.
Two years later he returned to the Law Offices of Vivek Malik as an attorney. The firm had been the point of entry to practice fundamentals. Returning in a lawyer role marked a step up in responsibility. He began taking on client-facing duties and case management tasks that the clerkship had prepared him for.
Tripathi is admitted to practice in New York. His education in India and the United States gives him a bilingual legal background in the sense of education rather than language. He has experience on both sides of the client table: inside a company and in private practice.
Colleagues describe him as steady in the courtroom and exacting in preparation. He has combined the research discipline of his clerkship, the procedural knowledge gained as in-house counsel, and the advocacy work he performs as a lawyer. Those strands shape his approach to handling matters.
He remains based at the Law Offices of Vivek Malik, where he resumed practice after his time at Gemini Solutions. He handles representation, case preparation, and advisory work for clients at that firm, practicing under his New York admission.
He continues to develop his practice at the Law Offices of Vivek Malik, working on client representation and advisory matters in his capacity as a licensed New York attorney.
