ABOUT SASIROCK

Built by someone who has sat on both sides of the table.

Sasirock isn't outside counsel you call in a panic. It's the strategic legal partner already in the room when decisions are made - built on decades of legal and operating experience, not a headcount.

WHY SASIROCK EXISTS

Growing companies deserve better than
a choice between two extremes.

Big firms bring discipline but bill by the hour and staff matters with whoever is available. Generalist advisors are accessible but rarely understand a business well enough to move at its speed. Sasirock exists to close that gap — senior judgment, embedded in the business, priced like a partner rather than a vendor.

THE STORY

Practiced at the top, then built
something of his own.

Robby S. Pinnamaneni practiced corporate transactions, restructuring, and real estate at Latham & Watkins and Kirkland & Ellis. He then stepped outside the firm model to help scale multi-million-dollar enterprises directly — as an operator, not an advisor on the sidelines.

Sasirock is the firm he built from that vantage point: legal counsel with the discipline of a top-tier firm, and the commercial instincts of someone who has run a business.

“Our success is measured on execution, not solely on opinions and advice.”

OPERATING PHILOSOPHY

Principles, not marketing lines.

The same discipline applies to every engagement, whether we are your standing counsel or handling a single matter.

1

Embedded, not episodic

We take the time to understand your business deeply, so counsel is real-time — not caught up after the fact.

2

Fixed fees, no surprises

Scope-based pricing agreed up front. No billable-hour framing, ever.

3

Selective by design

We prioritize lasting relationships over volume.
