About Property & Consumer Law

My Approach

I look at law as more than just rules - it’s about making sure you live with awareness and integrity. When it comes to property or consumer issues, small mistakes can cost you big. I help people break down the confusing legal stuff into clear steps so you can protect your money and peace of mind.

Property: Before You Buy

I’ve seen too many folks fall for builder promises. I always say - do your own checks before you invest:

• Verify title ownership, land status, and builder’s track record.
• Use the RERA property verification site, not flashy brochures.
• Check encumbrance certificate (minimum 30 yrs), maintenance charges, and FSI.

When Builders Delay

If your home’s delayed, you don’t have to just wait and hope. You can:

• Document every conversation (keep those emails safe).
• Send a legal notice for refund or damages.
• Take it up with consumer protection cell if needed.
• I can guide you on builder delay compensation under law.

Landlord-Tenant Balance

Whether you rent or own:

• Tenants - you have rights to privacy, fair rent, and safety.
• Landlords - eviction rights, higher rent for overstaying.
• Know the Model Tenancy Act rights, and difference between lease vs leave & license.

Everyday Consumer Rights

From banks to schools to hotels, you have legal protection:

• No harassment from recovery agents.
• Schools can’t overcharge - especially in Karnataka, if you feel thappu madidare (if there’s something wrong), you can complain and get fees back.
• Free drinking water and toilet access in any hotel, even fancy ones.

Daily Life & Neighbourhood

• Loud noise after 10 pm? Call local police.
• Apartment pet regulations - RWAs can’t ban pets from lifts or parks.
• Stray dogs are protected - harming them is illegal.

I believe knowing your rights isn’t about fighting, but living confidently, thale nimmade (your head held high).
