Advocate Prakrit Shrestha is a prominent lawyer in Nepal with extensive experience representing funds, financial institutions and corporate houses.

About Prakrit

As Managing Partner, Advocate Prakrit Shrestha carries responsibility for the direction of Reliance Corporate Advisors and for the quality of its work across every practice group. He is recognised as one of Nepal’s leading corporate lawyers and is among the most sought-after advisors in the country for cross-border transactions, inbound and outbound investment, and matters of corporate restructuring and governance.

His client base is broad and demanding. He acts for investment funds, banks and financial institutions, established corporate houses, and both government and non-government bodies, handling the full spectrum of contentious and non-contentious corporate work. On the transactional side, his practice centres on investment structuring, foreign investment and private equity funds, construction and procurement law, and the reorganisation and governance of companies. He is regularly retained to negotiate and draft the contracts that sit at the heart of significant commercial arrangements.

Prakrit is equally at home resolving disputes as arranging deals. He has substantial exposure to international commercial arbitration and to commercial and contractual litigation, and is valued for the composure and precision he brings to proceedings. As a Licensed Mediator with the Nepal Mediation Council, he is also equipped to steer parties toward negotiated outcomes where litigation would serve them poorly.

His reputation is reflected in the international directories. Chambers and Partners (2023) observed that he “impresses with his assured handling of corporate transactions and arbitrations” and “frequently advises clients on negotiating and drafting contracts” — a concise summary of a practice that blends deal-making with dispute resolution.
