About Criminal Law
Facing a criminal case can turn your whole world upside down. I get it - it’s stressful, confusing, and sometimes feels like you’re fighting alone. Log mujhse poochte hain, “Mam, ab kya karein?” (People ask me, what should I do now?). I’m here to cut through the noise and talk straight.
My Approach: Seedhi Baat, No Nonsense
The law can be complicated, but I keep it simple. I believe in 'seedhi baat' – I’ll tell you what you need to hear, not just what you want to hear. I break down legal sections and court procedures so you actually understand what’s happening with your case.
What I Handle
- Bail applications (anticipatory bail process and regular bail)
- Defending criminal charges under both IPC and Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita
- Quashing of false FIRs that can ruin reputations
- Handling cheque bounce cases, cyber crime legal defense, and frauds (like UPI or trading scams)
- Dealing with domestic violence legal rights, dowry cases (whether you’re the victim or falsely accused)
- Taking up defamation case procedure and defending in civil/criminal defamation
Police & Your Rights
Police ka samna karna sabke bas ki baat nahi hoti (Dealing with police isn’t easy for everyone). You have rights: demand written notice for police calls, know your rights if arrested, and remember - no forced confessions. Special protections exist for women too, like no arrest at night without court permission.
Fighting False Cases
False cases, especially in family disputes or dowry matters, are sadly common. Even if a chargesheet is filed, we can try for quashing in High Court. The law does protect the innocent, and I make sure you know your options.
I work across Gurgaon, Delhi, and Chandigarh, right up to Supreme Court. If you need real talk and practical help, I’m here.
