    @Ginevra Bizzarri - thanks for the insightful article! It really helps building some basic understanding as to how and why international law firms couldn't open an office in India!

    I have got a question in terms of the terms used. You mentioned about liaison offices in the article. Could you elaborate on the differences between liaison, associated, and/or administrative offices? Really confused when law firms use them on the website or brochure.
