Marezban, or MP as he is often called, qualified as a solicitor in 1973 and joined the law firm of Mulla & Mulla & Craigie Blunt & Caroe, Mumbai, where he specialised in arbitration and commercial litigation. He joined Amarchand Mangaldas in 1995 as senior partner heading the Mumbai dispute resolution practice. In 2008 he founded Bharucha & Partners.

MP has acted, including as arguing counsel, in a number of large civil disputes before courts and before arbitral tribunals. His practice has covered technical issues in the oil exploration and production industry; the construction of marine outfalls; electricity transmission and distribution networks, tele-communications and infrastructure projects. His practice also includes representing clients in disputes with their joint venture partners and in regulatory investigations by the securities markets regulator.

MP also has a significant corporate advisory and transactional practice. Clients who initially retained Marezban for dispute resolution insisted that he handle their transactional work. MP has vast corporate experience ranging from mergers of banks, defending against hostile takeovers, and corporate restructuring.

MP has also deposed as an expert on Indian law in several cases in England, USA and Singapore. A number of publications have consistently ranked him among India’s leading litigators
