I’m truly grateful to share that my memoir "No Regrets: Journey Through Law and Life" has been out for a little over a month now.
This book comes from the heart — it’s not a triumphant “I made it” story filled with only highlights. Instead, it’s an honest walk through my life: from growing up in a modest courtyard home in Raichur, North Karnataka, surrounded by the influence of my grandfathers (a Public Prosecutor and a Civil Judge), breathing in the monsoon air, reading Chandamama and later discovering Grisham… to the intense years in Bangalore’s corporate legal world, the big decisions (including walking away from a steel project), starting my solo practice at 45, the constant pull between ambition and family, health challenges, failures, comebacks, and the quiet lessons that redefined what success really means after sixty.
Early readers have described it as “feeling like a heartfelt conversation,” “thoughtful without being heavy,” “cinematic yet steady,” and one that makes you pause and reflect on your own trade-offs and legacy. One reviewer noted how it slows you down in today’s fast-paced world and leaves you thinking about restraint, balance, and second innings.
If you’ve ever navigated career highs and personal costs, wondered about protecting what matters most, or are simply curious about a grounded Indian life journey through law and family — I’d be honoured if you picked it up.
The book is available in paperback, hardcover, and ebook formats worldwide on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Apple Books, Kobo, and more.
I warmly welcome your honest thoughts, ratings, and reviews here on Goodreads. They mean a lot — good, critical, or anywhere in between. Your feedback helps the book reach more people who might find it meaningful.
What’s one choice in your own journey that you look back on with “no regrets”? I’d love to read your reflections in the comments.
Thank you for being part of this reading community.
Warm regards, Suresh Patel Author, No Regrets: Journey Through Law and Life
