On his decision to set up his own firm, Devaiah said,
“When I quit Everstone during the pandemic, the trigger was a compelling desire for change. Monotony was killing and the desire to break free was intense. In fact, the plan was to turn into an agri-entrepreneur and pursue other interests. Moving to Ahmedabad, to be part of the Adani Group was unplanned. It was an ocean and I just wanted a piece of that experience. I was with the group for a year.
I shared a great equation with my erstwhile founders (Everstone founders) and they wanted me to join them back. But I pleaded my reluctance to do anything that I did during my earlier tenure. But of course, law still continues to be a passion which I call the joy of jurisprudence. Starlaw fitted well into the emerging opportunity to create something new. I want to lay the foundation/create a platform for youngsters and my younger colleagues to carry forward the baton. I wish to set the tone, mentor, and after some time, move on to the realms of quiet and serenity of my plantation in Coorg.”
