Kelley Drye Partner Deepak Nambiar Named to IBLJ​’s International A-list 2026

For the eighth year in a row, Kelley Drye partner and India practice group chair Deepak Nambiar has been named among the India Business Law Journal​’s (IBLJ) 2026 A-list of international lawyers.

Specifically, Deepak is praised in the 2026 A-list as ​“a seasoned lawyer who can handle the most complex matters at ease, being solution-oriented and balanced on risk mitigation.”

The A-list comprises lawyers who are ​“trusted by Indian clients not only for their legal knowhow, but also for their responsiveness, commercial judgement, and cultural fluency.” IBLJ also describes those in the list as ​“the people Indian general counsel and law firm partners call to untangle multi-jurisdictional disputes, navigate unfamiliar regulatory environments, or close high-stakes deals on tight schedules.”

The A-list is based on the collective views of private practice lawyers in India and in-house counsel around the world. To learn more and read IBLJ​’s complete editorial report, click here.
