Niyati Gollapudi

Profile description

If a lower court has issued a quashing order that dismantles a settlement or halts a criminal proceeding, the decision can cause immediate distress. Advocate Niyati Gollapudi focuses on filing Special Leave Petitions and Supreme Court review petitions that target such quashing orders. By bringing the matter before the Supreme Court of India, the lawyer seeks to correct legal errors that could otherwise leave a client without remedy.

Niyati Gollapudi earned a first‑class law degree from a top national university and completed postgraduate studies in constitutional law. After clearing the All India Bar Examination with distinction, the advocate served as a research associate at a prestigious Supreme Court bench, assisting senior judges in drafting judgments on complex procedural questions. Over the last fifteen years, the lawyer has built a reputation for handling high‑stakes petitions before the Supreme Court, mastering the intricacies of Special Leave and review procedures. The advocate also completed a fellowship at the International Centre for Judicial Studies, focusing on appellate advocacy, which further refined the ability to craft compelling arguments before the apex court.

When a quashing order appears to stem from a misinterpretation of law, Niyati Gollapudi can file a Special Leave Petition (SLP) under Article 136 of the Constitution. The lawyer first scrutinizes the order for jurisdictional lapses, lack of notice, or failure to apply established legal principles. If any defect is identified, the advocate crafts a concise SLP that argues why the Supreme Court should grant special leave to examine the case. Supporting documents include the original order, relevant case law, and expert affidavits that demonstrate the adverse impact on the client’s rights.

If the quashing order was issued after a final judgment, Niyati Gollapudi can also pursue a review petition under Article 137. The lawyer assesses whether the lower court overlooked a crucial piece of evidence or applied an incorrect legal standard. The review petition is drafted to highlight these oversights and request the Supreme Court to set aside the quashing, thereby restoring the original judgment. In several recent matters, the advocate’s review petitions have resulted in the Supreme Court overturning erroneous quashing orders and reinstating the parties’ substantive rights.

Clients who approach Niyati Gollapudi receive a detailed assessment within 48 hours. The lawyer explains the procedural options, estimates the chances of success, and outlines a timeline that includes filing, hearing, and possible interim relief. Throughout the petition process, the advocate keeps the client informed of any orders or directions issued by the Supreme Court. Recent successes include the reversal of a quashing order that threatened a major infrastructure contract and the restoration of a criminal case that had been improperly dismissed, protecting the client’s commercial interests and personal liberty.

Beyond petition work, Niyati Gollapudi advises on preventive strategies to avoid future quashing orders. The lawyer assists clients in drafting robust agreements, conducting risk assessments, and preparing comprehensive evidence dossiers that can withstand judicial scrutiny. By combining deep knowledge of Supreme Court jurisprudence with practical business acumen, the advocate strives to deliver outcomes that not only reverse adverse orders but also reinforce the client’s long‑term legal footing.
