AML Cases (Anti-Money Laundering)

White Collar Crime Defense

White Collar Crime & PMLA Defense

Investigations by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA), 2002 are among the most severe legal challenges in India today.

Pro Tip: Handling an ED Summons (Section 50 PMLA).

  1. Never Ignore a Summons: Non-compliance can lead to immediate arrest. Acknowledge receipt immediately.
  2. Statements are Admissible: Unlike police statements, statements made to ED officers are admissible in court. Consult counsel before appearing.
  3. Document Trail: Maintain a clear audit trail of all high-value transactions to disprove "Proceeds of Crime" allegations.

Family Law and Mediation

Family Law & Matrimonial Litigation

We understand that matrimonial disputes are not just legal battles; they are emotional upheavals. Our approach is "Mediation First, Litigation Strong." We strive to resolve disputes amicably to save you time and dignity, but when litigation is inevitable, we fight tooth and nail to protect your rights, your assets, and your relationship with your children.

Pro Tip: Preparing for potential litigation (Smart Documentation).

  1. Secure Financial Records: Immediately gather copies of ITRs, bank statements, and property deeds. Financial transparency often disappears once litigation starts.
  2. Watch Your Communication: Avoid sending abusive texts or emails in the heat of the moment. These can be used as primary evidence of "Cruelty" against you.
  3. Stay in the Home: Do not leave the shared household without consulting a lawyer, as it may be construed as "Desertion" or abandonment.

  2. Medical Evidence is Key: In cases of physical assault, go to a government hospital immediately for an MLC (Medico-Legal Case) report. This is your strongest piece of evidence.
  3. Women Helpline 1091: Save this number. It connects you directly to police emergency services dedicated to women's safety.
