About Sakshya Sahayak

Sakshya Sahayak is a New Delhi-based legal firm registered under the Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises Development Act, 2006 (Udyam Registration). The firm's practice is focused on intellectual property law — specifically trademark, copyright, and patent matters alongside corporate compliance and commercial contract drafting.

The firm is operated by Aditya Chauhan, Advocate, enrolled with the Bar Council of Delhi (Enrolment No. D/11905/2022). The name draws from the Sanskrit roots Sakshya (साक्ष्य - evidence) and Sahayak (सहायक - assistant), reflecting the firm's orientation toward helping rights-holders understand and document the legal basis of their brand ownership.

"A trademark is the most persistent evidence of your brand's legal identity. Registration under the Trade Marks Act, 1999 creates a statutory presumption of ownership and exclusive use."
