Ellora Private Office was founded by Vibha Vallabh, a trusted advisor to high-net-worth individuals and families across the globe. With nearly three decades of experience in private wealth law, estate planning, and international asset protection, Vibha has dedicated her career to helping clients protect, structure, and sustain their wealth across generations.
Vibha began her career as a litigation lawyer in private practice, regularly representing her clients’ financial interest in court. This foundation gives her the rare ability to identify latent risk to wealth, having witnessed first hand how even the most meticulously constructed arrangements can fail under legal challenge or familial discord.
Progressing to strategic advisory and General Counsel roles across New Zealand, England and Switzerland, and with extensive experience advising clients across the USA and Latin America, she brings exceptional global perspective and deep cross-border expertise to her work.
At Ellora Private Office, Vibha works directly with entrepreneurs, investors, and multi-generational families or their closest advisers. She employs a methodology defined by absolute discretion, analytical thinking and anticipatory foresight. Informed by her litigation and international experience, she anticipates vulnerabilities, identifies opportunities, and designs enduring governance structures, ensuring her clients’ assets remain secure in a world where true wealth demands meticulous protection, not merely accumulation.
