Rupal Banerjee

Profile description

You might be facing a criminal charge that arose out of a marital dispute or a compromise that was later contested, and you are looking for a lawyer who can help you eliminate the case entirely. Rupal Banerjee is the advocate who regularly assists clients in obtaining quashing orders on compromise agreements and in matrimonial criminal matters. Her practice focuses on obtaining relief from both the Punjab and Haryana High Court and, when necessary, from the Supreme Court of India.

Rupal’s legal journey began with a first‑class graduation in law followed by a master’s specializing in criminal and family law. She spent several years as a junior with a leading litigation firm in Chandigarh, where she observed dozens of compromise‑related petitions and learned how courts assess the fairness and voluntariness of settlements. Over the past twelve years she has built a reputation for spotting procedural flaws and substantive injustices that allow a quashing order to be granted.

When a client arrives with a compromise that later appears to be fraudulent or coerced, Rupal first reviews the settlement documents, the circumstances of signing, and any correspondence that may reveal duress. She then prepares a petition that argues the compromise was not entered into voluntarily, or that it contravenes public policy. In matrimonial criminal cases, she examines the FIR, the evidence, and the underlying marital issues, and she crafts arguments that the criminal proceeding is an abuse of process or that the facts do not meet the legal threshold for prosecution.

Rupal’s track record includes several landmark decisions where the High Court set aside compromises that were later found to be obtained under pressure, restoring property and rights to her clients. In a recent Supreme Court petition, she succeeded in having a matrimonial criminal case dismissed on the ground that the alleged offense was a result of domestic discord, not a punishable act. Clients commend her for clear communication, swift filing, and the confidence she gives them during emotionally charged proceedings.

If you are wondering whether your case can be quashed, Rupal Banerjee can explain the legal standards, the likely timeline, and the evidence you will need to support your claim. She can guide you through the preparation of affidavits, the collection of supporting documents, and the presentation of a compelling narrative to the bench. By focusing on both High Court and Supreme Court avenues, she ensures that every possible route to quashing is explored.
