The Answers You Need Before You Even
Ask: Questions.

You have the direct number of the advocate handling your matter, on WhatsApp and phone, plus a plain-language note after every hearing and a copy of every order the same day. No call centre, no legal jargon.

The advocate who prepares your file is the advocate who argues it. Our cyber-crime and data-protection work is grounded in doctoral research in the field, and our litigation practice is before the Lucknow Bench and district courts every day.

Yes. Many cyber-fraud and service matters have short windows: the 1930 helpline, a bank's transaction hold, a reply to a charge-sheet. A short consultation tells you whether there is something to do and how urgently.

A cyber-fraud complaint can be filed the same day; a bail application within a day of instructions; a DPDP readiness engagement runs eight to twelve weeks; civil suits and writs depend on the court's board and we tell you the realistic range at the outset.

The first call to understand your matter and its urgency is without charge. A detailed consultation, where we review documents and advise on strategy, is a fixed-fee session quoted in advance.

Our practice is centred on Lucknow and the Lucknow Bench. For cyber-fraud and data-protection matters we act for clients across Uttar Pradesh and remotely, and we brief counsel in other cities where an appearance is needed.

Call 1930 immediately and file on cybercrime.gov.in; the earlier the report, the better the chance of a hold on the receiving account. Then inform your bank in writing. We can draft and file the complaint and handle the bank escalation for you.

Usually the freeze is a lien on the disputed amount. An application before the concerned Magistrate, with your KYC and transaction history, is the ordinary route. We handle these applications regularly.

In appropriate cases a petition under Section 528 of the BNSS (formerly Section 482 CrPC) lies before the Lucknow Bench. Whether it is advisable depends on the allegations and the record.

Yes. Many such matters are resolved through preservation, platform reporting and a complaint without any public step, and we advise on that first.

Yes, if it processes digital personal data. Some obligations are lighter for smaller entities, but notice, consent and reasonable security apply broadly.

The Rules were notified on 13 November 2025. The Board provisions are in force; consent-manager provisions apply from 14 November 2026; all remaining obligations from 13 May 2027.

Failure to take reasonable security safeguards can attract a penalty of up to ₹250 crore, with lower ceilings for other contraventions. Timely intimation reduces exposure.

Yes. We draft notices and privacy policies that meet the DPDP Rules and the IT Act requirements, and we review consent flows on the site or app.

Ordinarily within a day of instructions, once the FIR and basic documents are available. Listing depends on the court's board.

Anticipatory bail is usually sought first before the Sessions Court, and thereafter the Lucknow Bench of the Allahabad High Court. The choice depends on the offence and the stage.

Compromise is a strong ground in matters of a private or civil character. Petitions under Section 528 BNSS are routinely allowed on that basis where the offence permits.

Yes. We draft complaints, pursue registration and investigation, and represent victims at trial.

It varies widely with the relief and the court's board. Interim relief can come within weeks; final decree can take years, which is why we assess alternative forums first.

Yes, where the bank has failed in its duty of care, including under the RBI's limited-liability framework for unauthorised electronic transactions.

The complaint must be filed within one month of the cause of action arising after the statutory notice period. The timelines are strict; contact us as soon as the cheque is returned.

Yes, including appointment of arbitrators, interim measures and challenges to awards, with a preference for conciliation where it is realistic.

The reply becomes part of the enquiry record and is read by every authority afterwards. We recommend that it be drafted with legal advice.

Where no effective alternative remedy exists or where the order is without jurisdiction. Otherwise the tribunal or departmental appeal usually comes first.

Yes, on contracts, policies, POSH compliance and the conduct of misconduct enquiries.

Only in limited circumstances provided by the rules. Wrongful withholding is regularly set aside by the courts.
