Argo Law launches as Bridge Law dissolves

Attorney Lalit Kundani has launched Argo Law, PC in Anaheim Hills after Bridge Law LLP dissolved, carrying over existing clients and staff. The firm is betting on an education-first model for estate planning, tax strategy, asset protection and U.S.-India cross-border matters.

Why it matters: - Argo Law is positioning itself as a private client firm for families, business owners and public figures who need estate planning, tax strategy, asset protection and cross-border planning. - The launch preserves continuity for existing Bridge Law clients while expanding Kundani’s practice into high-net-worth planning and U.S.-India matters. - Kundani’s courtroom background gives the firm a litigation-informed approach to protecting wealth before disputes happen.

What happened: - Bridge Law LLP has dissolved, and Lalit Kundani is now Managing Partner of Argo Law, PC in Anaheim Hills. - Argo Law is based at 155 N. Riverview Drive, Suite 213, in Anaheim. - Existing clients will keep working with the same attorneys and staff at Argo Law. - Kundani leads the firm with Junior Partner Kiran Sohal and Attorney Sabina Chopra, supported by a client services and paralegal team.

The details: - Argo Law focuses on estate planning, tax strategy, asset protection, charitable planning, probate, trust administration and cross-border planning for families with ties to India and other countries. - Kundani said he spent the first half of his career learning what happens when things go wrong and the second half making sure they do not. - Before joining private client work, Kundani worked at a large national law firm, served as a Los Angeles County Deputy District Attorney, prosecuted gang homicide and capital murder cases, and represented victims of catastrophic injury and wrongful death at a national plaintiffs’ litigation firm. - Kundani says he has recovered more than $150 million in verdicts and settlements. - In October 2025, Kundani served as co-counsel with Panish | Shea | Ravipudi LLP in a case involving an 80-year-old pedestrian struck on a sidewalk by a driver running a red light. - A San Bernardino County Superior Court jury awarded $34.1 million in that case, No. CIVSB2319798. - That trial team was named a finalist for the Consumer Attorneys of California’s 2026 Consumer Attorney of the Year award, which will be presented in San Francisco in November. - Argo Law says its first meeting with new clients is an educational session that covers the problem, available options and trade-offs before any engagement is signed. - Kundani said the firm starts with strategy and then moves to documents. - The firm’s property tax practice centers on California’s Proposition 19, which can trigger reassessment when real estate passes from parents to children. - Under Proposition 19, many inherited properties can be reassessed to current market value instead of keeping a lower tax base. - Kundani has discussed Proposition 19 as a guest on “California Insider,” and other estate planning attorneys refer such matters to the firm. - The firm advises professionals, business owners and public figures on asset structuring designed to reduce exposure to lawsuits and creditors while protecting privacy. - For high- and ultra-high-net-worth families, Argo Law designs irrevocable trust strategies aimed at reducing federal estate and gift taxes. - The firm also advises founders on Qualified Small Business Stock planning before an IPO or sale. - Argo Law says its in-house handling of estate tax, property tax, asset protection and trust administration lets families address related issues through one legal team. - The firm’s U.S.-India Desk focuses on U.S.-India tax and estate matters and helps clients handle cross-border property, wills and estate issues without traveling to India. - Argo Law also advises non-citizens and global families on owning and transferring U.S. assets.

Between the lines: - Kundani’s pitch is that trial lawyers are trained to think about failure modes, which he believes makes them better at designing estate and asset protection plans. - The firm is using education as a differentiator, signaling a less transactional approach than the traditional pay-and-trust model. - The emphasis on privacy, lawsuits and public figures suggests Argo Law is targeting clients whose legal and personal risks overlap. - The U.S.-India focus points to a niche that could appeal to diaspora families and cross-border wealth holders who need one firm to coordinate multiple legal systems.

What's next: - Argo Law plans to keep serving existing clients from its Anaheim office under the new firm structure. - Kundani’s outside affiliation with Falcon, Rappaport & Berkman should extend Argo Law’s reach into New York, New Jersey, Florida and Connecticut. - Kundani will continue speaking and teaching on estate planning and QSBS topics, including work with First American Trust. - Argo Law directs readers to more information.

The bottom line: - Argo Law is trying to turn litigation experience into a private-client advantage, with estate planning built around risk detection, tax efficiency and cross-border complexity.
