Our Practice Areas
Criminal Cases
Criminal cases involve legal actions taken by the government against individuals or entities accused of committing a crime. These cases typically follow a set legal process and may result in penalties such as fines, probation, imprisonment, or other forms of punishment.
Family Matters
In India, domestic violence is addressed under the Indian Penal Code (IPC) through several sections that provide legal remedies for victims of domestic violence. These provisions are primarily aimed at protecting women from physical, emotional, and economic abuse within their homes.
Bail
The Criminal Procedure Code, 1973 talks in details about the bail process and how it is obtained. However, it does not define bail. ‘Bail’ connotes the process of procuring the release of an accused charged with certain offence by ensuring his future attendance in the Court for trial and compelling him to remain within the jurisdiction of the Court.
Anticipatory Bail
Section 438 of Cr.P.C. deals with anticipatory bail. When any person has an apprehension or reason to believe that he may be arrested of an accusation of having committed a non-bailable offence then he may apply to High Court or Court of Sessions for direction that in the event of arrest he shall be released on bail.

Divorce in India is primarily governed by personal laws based on an individual’s religion. The Indian Penal Code (IPC) does not directly address divorce proceedings; rather, it focuses on criminal offenses.
