LegalPay, a fintech in legal and insolvency space, announced that it has elevated Kashish Grover as Chief Operating Officer (COO).
Kashish will be leading LegalPay’s domestic and global operations and accelerating company’s long-term growth strategy. He will also be responsible for building new initiatives within legal payments infra, both domestic and international, the statement said.
The company is the largest scaled player in the legal and insolvency financing market and is backed by marquee investors such as 9unicorns, Amity Incubation Fund, Venture Catalysts, LetsVenture and other family offices. The company is expanding in four cities in a span of next one month, namely Mumbai, Bengaluru, Surat and Pune.
Founder and CEO, Kundan Shahi said, “Kashish joined us as the first person and has been instrumental in building LegalPay into what it is today. He has been successfully leading our both verticals – litigation financing and interim financing and has closed landmark transactions in both during the last two years. As we double down on growth while consistently increasing revenues, Kashish’s experience as a resilient leader and organisation builder will play a pivotal role. We wish him luck for his new role and challenges.”
Kashish joined LegalPay as Chief Investment Officer in January 2021 and has previously worked with organisations such as Pricewaterhouse Coopers and Goldman Sachs in the deal advisory and investment management division. He also co-founded a food and beverage start-up in cloud kitchens that was entirely bootstrapped and exited it after scaling it in Delhi NCR.
LegalPay has raised its seed round in April 2021 and its pre-series A round in the Jan 2022. The company is now planning to go for a larger Series A in next couple of quarters and has part commitments from existing and new investors.
