Keerthana Rajendran

Profile description

An NRI facing criminal accusations in India may feel lost across borders, uncertain about how to protect liberty and assets. Keerthana Rajendran is a Chandigarh‑based advocate who specializes in NRI anticipatory bail and defence against property fraud allegations, practicing before the Punjab and Haryana High Court and the Supreme Court of India.

When an NRI learns that a non‑bailable offence has been lodged, the lawyer can file an anticipatory bail application to pre‑empt arrest. Keerthana regularly assists overseas clients by coordinating with local counsel, arranging for the necessary documentation, and preparing a compelling petition that highlights the client’s ties to the foreign jurisdiction, lack of flight risk, and willingness to cooperate with investigations. Successful anticipatory bail petitions have secured release from custody and allowed clients to remain abroad while the case proceeds.

Property fraud claims against NRIs often involve complex title documents, cross‑border asset holdings, and alleged misrepresentation. Keerthana’s practice includes a thorough examination of property records, coordination with overseas banks, and engagement of forensic accountants. By exposing procedural lapses in the prosecution’s evidence, the lawyer can argue for dismissal or reduction of charges before the High Court. In instances where the matter escalates, Keerthana has presented persuasive arguments before the Supreme Court, achieving landmark rulings that protect the property rights of overseas Indians.

Communication is a cornerstone of Keerthana’s service. The lawyer conducts virtual consultations across time zones, explains each procedural step in plain language, and provides regular updates on filings and court dates. This transparency helps clients manage expectations and reduces the anxiety associated with distant legal battles.

Beyond the courtroom, Keerthana advises NRIs on steps to safeguard assets during litigation, such as freezing accounts, securing collateral, and managing tax implications. The lawyer also assists in negotiating settlements that preserve the client’s financial interests while satisfying legal requirements.

The combination of deep courtroom experience, a focused practice on NRI matters, and a proactive, client‑focused methodology makes Keerthana Rajendran a trusted ally for Indians living abroad who face criminal accusations in India. Whether the case is heard in Chandigarh’s High Court or reaches the Supreme Court, the lawyer’s expertise is aimed at securing anticipatory bail, dismantling fraudulent claims, and protecting the client’s future.
