Rohan Shrivastava

Profile description

A criminal case has been opened against you and the court has issued a quashing order that jeopardizes your defense. Rohan Shrivastava, a lawyer experienced in quashing criminal proceedings, stands ready to challenge such orders both in the Punjab and Haryana High Court and, if needed, before the Supreme Court of India.

Shrivastava regularly assists clients whose criminal charges have been dismissed or whose investigations have been halted by a quashing order. The lawyer’s practice includes filing applications to quash criminal proceedings that are improperly instituted, as well as filing Special Leave Petitions in the Supreme Court to review such orders. By scrutinizing the legal basis of the quashing order, Shrivastava identifies procedural defects, lack of jurisdiction, or violations of the principles of natural justice that can form the foundation for a successful challenge.

When the matter progresses to the High Court, Shrivastava presents detailed arguments demonstrating why the quashing order should be set aside. The lawyer highlights any inconsistencies in the lower court’s reasoning, the presence of new evidence, or statutory protections that were ignored. Shrivastava’s skillful advocacy aims to reinstate the criminal proceedings, allowing the client to defend against the allegations fully.

If the High Court upholds the quashing, Shrivastava moves swiftly to file a Review Petition in the Supreme Court of India. The lawyer’s experience with Supreme Court Review Petitions ensures that any material error or oversight in the High Court’s judgment is brought to the nation’s highest bench. Shrivastava prepares comprehensive submissions that combine legal precedent, factual clarity, and a compelling narrative of why the quashing order undermines justice.

A distinctive aspect of Shrivastava’s practice is the ability to quash criminal proceedings against company directors. The lawyer understands the intricate balance between corporate governance and individual liability. By challenging orders that unjustly target directors, Shrivastava protects both personal and business interests, often securing the reinstatement of corporate operations and preventing undue financial loss.

Clients commend Shrivastava for clear communication and a pragmatic approach. The lawyer explains each step—from filing motions in the High Court to seeking Supreme Court review—while setting realistic expectations about timelines and possible outcomes. Shrivastava’s track record includes several instances where quashing orders were overturned, leading to the reopening of investigations, the restoration of reputation, and the prevention of unwarranted penalties.

If you face a quashing order that threatens your criminal defense or your role as a company director, Shrivastava can evaluate the merits of an appeal in the Punjab and Haryana High Court and, where appropriate, prepare a Supreme Court Review Petition. The lawyer’s commitment is to safeguard your legal rights, provide robust representation, and pursue a resolution that restores your ability to contest the charges. A thorough consultation with Rohan Shrivastava offers a strategic roadmap, transparent assessment of risks, and decisive advocacy aimed at overturning the quashing order.
