What We handle
Each area is handled under the specific provisions of the Code of Criminal Procedure (CrPC) and constitutional law.
Quashing of FIR
We file petitions before the High Court to quash FIRs and criminal proceedings that are false, frivolous, motivated, or disclose no cognisable offence.
This remedy, invoked under the inherent powers of the High Court, is one of the most powerful tools available to the accused — and requires precise legal drafting and persuasive argument.
Regular Bail
When a lower court denies bail, our team moves swiftly to the High Court under Section 439.
We prepare detailed bail applications addressing the triple test — flight risk, tampering of evidence, and repeat offence — citing relevant precedents to secure our client’s release pending trial.
Anticipatory Bail
If you have reason to believe you may be arrested, anticipatory bail under Section 438 provides critical protection.
We advise clients at the earliest sign of threat and appear urgently before the High Court — or seek interim protection — so that arrest does not pre-empt your legal rights.
Revision Petitions
Revision petitions are filed before the High Court to correct illegalities, material errors, or improper exercises of jurisdiction by subordinate criminal courts.
We evaluate trial court orders critically and prepare revision petitions that challenge erroneous findings on law and on appreciation of evidence.
Property Custody
Property seized in criminal investigations – vehicles, cash, documents, electronic devices – can be released or returned during or after proceedings.
We apply before courts under these provisions for interim custody or release of seized property, protecting the owner’s rights without prejudice to the ongoing investigation or trial.
Writ & Allied Remedies
Where criminal proceedings violate fundamental rights – unlawful detention, procedural abuse, illegal police action – we file writ petitions under Articles 226 and 227.
We also advise on habeas corpus applications and coordinate constitutional arguments alongside criminal defence strategy..
