Our lawyers carry out an early analysis of the risk involved, which is valuable while thinking through various legal options, including seeking anticipatory bail, quashing of FIR, etc. Owing to the fact that the local court practices, court schedules, etc. are not uniform, we help in pre-planning and pre-strategizing the same in order to analyze all available options/solutions, keeping in view the long term impact of such choices on trial proceedings.
