Advocate Sriram Parakkat’s legal expertise extends beyond conventional courtroom battles, as demonstrated by his involvement in international cases like the AgustaWestland chopper deal. The case, which implicated several high-profile individuals and institutions, involved cross-border evidence, international extradition efforts, and national security considerations.
Representing clients in such a politically sensitive and legally intricate matter requires not only a strong grasp of Indian law but also an understanding of international legal cooperation and treaties. Parakkat has shown exceptional command over both. He tackled issues surrounding admissibility of foreign evidence, protection of rights of the accused, and the politicization of defense deals.
His approach combined legal rigour with strategic diplomacy, ensuring that due process was upheld despite immense media scrutiny and political overtones. This case also highlighted the challenges Indian lawyers face in navigating multi-jurisdictional litigations.
Adv. Parakkat’s role in such matters sets a benchmark for Indian lawyers aspiring to practice on a global scale. His work in the AgustaWestland case is not just a testament to his legal skill, but also to his ability to handle complex, high-stakes litigation that demands precision, patience, and perspective.
