Visionary in Mediation and Family Justice: Prithvish Rajamani For those negotiating the challenging terrain of family law, Dr. Prithvish Rajamani is a ray of hope in the legal scene. Establishing TRAN Legal & Mediation, a reputable law company with headquarters in Coimbatore, he has created a name for himself as a trusted adviser and adept negotiator focused in family law and cross-border issues.

His path from business executive to legal advocate is a shining example of tenacity, will, and relentless justice advocacy. Born with a love of serving others, he first had a great career in marketing before rising to be Vice President of Bannari Infotech Private Limited. But when he became a single parent to his three-year-old son, his life changed dramatically. Understanding the difficulties of juggling a rigorous corporate career with the obligations of single parenthood, Prithvish took what he calls a “no-brainer” choice: he decided on fatherhood and started on a new professional route in law.

His own encounter with the legal system throughout his seven-year divorce process let him see the great gulf separating the law from the regular person. This insight led to what would eventually become TRAN Legal & Mediation. Derived from Sanskrit meaning “safe haven” the name “TRAN” captures exactly Prithvish’s vision: to provide an umbrella for single parents looking for emotional assistance and legal direction.

Following his divorce, Prithvish was diagnosed with cancer in 2015, presenting another life-altering obstacle. This wake-up call helped him to rethink his goals and commit himself totally to bridge the legal divide. Supported by a network of more than 60 advocates globally who share his belief in the power of mediation, what started as a small project with just five members has blossomed into a strong community of over 1,600 Indian single parents across 15 countries.

One of the most sought-after family court mediators in India, Prithvish has a stellar record. Having more than 280 successful settlement agreements totalling over 58,000 hours and over a decade of expertise, he has regularly maintained a success rate much above the industry norm.

For its many benefits, it takes less time, is more affordable, generates less stress than litigation, and lets parties control the result instead of having a judge or jury decide. He values that mediation helps to provide original and inventive answers caters to the particular situation of every case.
