Bail & Pre-Arrest Strategy
Anticipatory bail under Section 482 BNSS, regular bail, default bail, and bail cancellation defence. We prepare strong applications backed by precedent — not template pleadings.
Trial Defence
Sessions and Magistrate court trial in offences against person, property, financial frauds, and special statutes. Cross-examination strategy that exploits prosecution gaps.
Quashing & Discharge
Section 528 BNSS / 482 CrPC quashing petitions before the Karnataka High Court, discharge applications, and protest petitions.
Special Acts & Economic Offences
NDPS Act, PMLA, Black Money Act, Companies Act offences, and SEBI prosecutions. Coordinated defence where multiple agencies are involved.
How a criminal law engagement works.
- 01
Urgent intake
If someone is in custody or facing imminent arrest, call us immediately. We move on bail or AB the same day where possible.
- 02
Case file review
Review of FIR / complaint, statements, recoveries and seizure memos. Identification of procedural infirmities.
- 03
Pleadings & strategy
Drafting of bail / quashing / discharge pleadings, witness preparation, and trial strategy aligned to your specific facts.
- 04
Court representation
Personal appearance through every stage — Magistrate, Sessions, High Court and Supreme Court where required.
The PKP Advocates difference.
Criminal defence is where preparation beats performance. Every matter we have handled came from doing the unglamorous work — reading the case diary line by line, preserving every defence, and refusing to accept the prosecution version at face value.
Frequently asked questions.
Someone in my family was just arrested. What should I do?+
Call us immediately on +91 63634 69138. Do not let the accused sign any statement, document, or 'confession' until a lawyer is present. We will move for bail at the earliest opportunity.
Can a false FIR be quashed?+
Yes — under Section 528 BNSS (formerly 482 CrPC), the High Court can quash FIRs that disclose no cognisable offence, are filed with malice, or are an abuse of process. Each case turns on its facts.
Will I have to attend every hearing personally?+
In most non-cognisable matters, your personal attendance can be dispensed with through proper applications. In serious matters, we minimise unnecessary appearances and prepare you thoroughly for those that are mandatory.
Do you handle white-collar / economic offences?+
Yes — including PMLA, GST fraud, banking and securities frauds, cyber-financial offences, and CBI / ED matters. Our IT background is an advantage in cases involving digital evidence.
