Pondy Legal Consulting

Legal support for trusts, foundations and businesses in Pondicherry.
A consulting practice based in Pondicherry. We research, draft and explain corporate, contractual and non-profit governance matters, in writing and in person, without the travel and delay of an out-of-town firm.
Trust and foundation governance
Organisations that need steady legal support, not a courtroom.When a matter needs a court or tribunal, you are not on your own.Over years in teaching, consultancy and the development sector, Anoop Parakkal has built working relationships with friends, associates and senior practitioners in many parts of India, including lawyers who appear before High Courts, district courts and tribunals.That network lets us seek informed opinions on questions of local practice and procedure, and, where a matter has to be litigated, refer you to a competent advocate in the right forum. The advocate is engaged directly by you and represents you independently.
