Rithvik Sangwan

Profile description

When a lower court quashes a case that you believe should proceed, you may need to challenge that decision before the nation’s highest bench. Rithvik Sangwan is the lawyer who specializes in filing Special Leave Petitions and Supreme Court Review Petitions in exactly those quashing scenarios.

Rithvik Sangwan can help a client who feels that a charge was improperly dismissed by the Punjab and Haryana High Court or by another tribunal, and now wishes to have the matter reconsidered by the Supreme Court of India. The lawyer drafts a Special Leave Petition (SLP) that highlights why the quashing order warrants a fresh look, focusing on legal errors, violation of natural justice, or overlooked evidence. If the Supreme Court grants leave, the lawyer moves quickly to present a Review Petition that argues the original judgment was flawed in principle or fact.

The lawyer’s practice is built on a solid academic foundation, including a law degree from the National Law School and a post‑graduate diploma in constitutional law. Over ten years of experience before the Supreme Court of India has given Rithvik Sangwan a nuanced understanding of the court’s procedural expectations and the standards for granting special leave. The lawyer has successfully secured leave in more than half of the petitions filed, and has seen several Review Petitions result in the reversal of quashing orders that harmed clients’ interests.

Clients benefit from the lawyer’s straightforward communication style. Rithvik Sangwan can explain the difference between an SLP and a Review Petition, outline the timeline, and advise on the documents required to make a compelling case. The lawyer prepares comprehensive annexures, including copies of the original quashing order, relevant evidence, and legal precedents that support the claim for reinstatement. By presenting a concise, well‑structured petition, the lawyer maximizes the chance that the Supreme Court will admit the matter for hearing.

The lawyer stays current with the latest Supreme Court rulings on quashing and review procedures. This vigilance allows Rithvik Sangwan to cite recent judgments that reinforce the argument that the lower court’s decision was erroneous. The lawyer also leverages insights from senior advocates who have mentored the practice, ensuring that each petition reflects best‑practice advocacy techniques.

During the hearing, the lawyer adopts a calm, persuasive tone, focusing the bench on the legal deficiencies in the original quashing order. The lawyer emphasizes constitutional safeguards, the right to a fair trial, and the public interest in correcting a miscarriage of justice. This approach has led to several landmark decisions where the Supreme Court has set aside inappropriate quashing orders, allowing the original proceedings to resume.

Choosing Rithvik Sangwan means engaging a lawyer who can navigate the complexities of the Supreme Court’s jurisdiction, protect your legal rights, and strive to overturn unjust quashing outcomes. The lawyer’s dedication to meticulous preparation and strategic advocacy offers a clear path toward restoring the proper course of justice.
