Civil law primarily deals with disputes between individuals, organizations, or entities where compensation may be awarded. My civil practice includes:

• Property and ownership disputes, including encroachment and possession issues

• Recovery of money in contract breaches or outstanding dues

• Suits for permanent and temporary injunctions

• Declaratory relief regarding legal rights or titles

• Consumer protection matters under the Consumer Protection Act

These cases often involve documentary evidence, filings, and court representation. I assist clients in drafting pleadings, maintaining compliance with civil procedure, and understanding the legal remedies available.

Criminal Law

I also represent clients in criminal proceedings involving allegations under various provisions of Indian criminal law. This includes:

• Regular and anticipatory bail applications

• Legal representation in trial proceedings under the Indian Penal Code (IPC)

• Quashing of First Information Reports (FIRs) and criminal complaints

• Appeals, revisions, and applications before appellate courts

The criminal justice system demands timely legal action and proper procedural conduct. My role is to represent clients within the legal framework and ensure access to fair proceedings.
