Dr Vidya Sagar, the senior partner at IP boutique Remfry & Sagar, passed away on 27 February. He was 85 years old.
A barrister at Lincoln’s Inn with a doctorate from the Free University of Berlin, Sagar earned a reputation as one of the country’s most formidable IP lawyers. He was admitted to the Indian bar in 1952 and took over the practice of Remfry & Son in 1973 (renamed Remfry & Sagar in 1991). He was instrumental in making the firm one of India’s most respected IP practices.
His colleagues at Remfry & Sagar paid their respects in a statement: “Of sharp mind and strong will, uncompromising in his insistence on the highest standards of professional integrity and conduct, he was unfazed by difficulties. He was a visionary but a rather unassuming one as he shunned the limelight. For all those who had the privilege of knowing him personally, none can forget the sheer range of his experiences and the depth of his curiosity.”
