About Us
Makil & Makil Law Offices traces it origin to the year 1920, when Advocate Thomas Makil set up his law practice in Kottayam in Kerala. He soon rose to prominence as one of the leading lawyers in civil litigation. He is often remembered as a leading exponent of land reforms cases, especially when Kerala was buffeted by the Land Reforms Act. His legacy was continued by his sons Advocate James Makil and Advocate Jose Makil who were adept in civil, industrial, and banking law. Both of them are remembered for contributing immensely towards the industrial jurisprudence, especially in the fields of plantations and large-scale industries. “Makil’s Guide to Industrial Law” authored by Advocate James Makil, was the most sought- after handbook for the managerial and supervisory staff in every major plantation in Kerala. “Makil’s Law Circular” a fortnightly authored by Advocate Jose Makil, was popular among the industrial and banking fraternity.
We now have offices in Kochi, Kottayam, and Thiruvananthapuram, providing legal assistance and advice to a wide cross section of clientele ranging from corporations to individual clients, on a variety of matters.
