Palakkad, Kerala: Advocate P. Balasubramanian Menon, a 97-year-old lawyer based in Kerala, has achieved the remarkable feat of securing a place in the Guinness Book of World Records as the longest-serving lawyer. With an illustrious career spanning an impressive 73 years and 60 days, Advocate Menon has become a symbol of longevity in the legal profession.

Expressing his determination to continue practicing law as long as his health permits, Advocate Menon hopes to serve as an inspiration to others in the legal profession.
