When a client approaches Rituparna with a petition to quash a matrimonial criminal case, the first step is a confidential intake where she clarifies the facts, gathers documentary evidence such as marriage certificates, communication records, and police reports. She then evaluates whether the criminal complaint is anchored in genuine wrongdoing or is a strategic move to gain leverage in a divorce.

In the High Court, Rituparna skilfully presents oral arguments, cross‑examining any prosecution witnesses and highlighting inconsistencies in the complaint.

Beyond courtroom advocacy, Rituparna offers strategic counseling to help clients understand the possible repercussions of a criminal case on divorce proceedings, child custody, and financial settlements.
