1. 498A-Related Matrimonial & Criminal Matters

The handwritten list provided for the firm specifically mentions 498A matters.

Because India’s criminal-law framework changed from 1 July 2024, current criminal matters need to be assessed under the applicable provisions of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023 (BNS) and related procedural law, while older offences and transitional circumstances may involve the previous Indian Penal Code framework. Accordingly, website content should describe this service as “498A-related matters” rather than suggesting that Section 498A of the IPC governs every current case.

Legal assistance may include:

• Advice concerning matrimonial-cruelty allegations
• Criminal complaint and FIR-related matters
• Bail proceedings
• Representation in criminal proceedings
• Review of notices and court documents
