Sahu Kumar & Partners provides comprehensive representation in high-stakes litigation, advisory, and dispute resolution. Discover our core areas of expertise below.
Supreme Court Matters: Special Leave Petitions (Civil/Criminal)
Our firm has extensive experience in drafting and arguing Special Leave Petitions before the Supreme Court of India under Article 136 of the Constitution, representing clients aggrieved by orders of High Courts, Tribunals, or other judicial and quasi-judicial bodies. We meticulously evaluate the merits of each case to determine the viability of invoking this extraordinary discretionary jurisdiction, ensuring that only well founded petitions are pursued before the apex court. Our practice spans both civil and criminal SLPs, covering disputes ranging from contractual and property matters to convictions, bail applications, and sentencing appeals. We understand that the Supreme Court exercises this power sparingly and only in cases involving substantial questions of law or grave miscarriage of justice, and we tailor our strategy accordingly. We also represent clients at the stage of final hearing once leave is granted, carrying the matter through to its logical conclusion. With a track record of successful interventions at the apex court level, we provide clients the confidence that their case is in capable hands at the highest judicial forum in the country.
Criminal Matters
Our firm provides comprehensive legal representation across all aspects of criminal law, assisting clients at every stage of the legal process, from initial investigation through trial and appeal. We represent both complainants and accused persons in a wide range of criminal cases, offering strategic counsel tailored to the specific facts and circumstances of each matter. Our services include securing bail, defending against criminal charges, and pursuing appellate remedies before the relevant courts. We also assist clients in understanding their legal options and the likely course of action, helping them make informed decisions throughout the legal process. Given the often time-sensitive nature of criminal matters, we strive to respond promptly and provide effective representation when it matters most. Our goal is to ensure that justice is served, whether that means securing an acquittal, a favorable settlement, or appropriate redress for victims of crime.
Civil & Family Law: Complex Matrimonial Disputes and Property Litigation
We offer dedicated representation in complex matrimonial disputes, including divorce, judicial separation, maintenance, child custody, and domestic violence cases, handled with the sensitivity and discretion these deeply personal matters demand. Our team also assists clients in negotiating settlements, mutual consent divorces, and mediation processes to minimize the emotional and financial toll of prolonged litigation. On the property front, we handle disputes relating to partition, succession, title verification, specific performance of contracts, tenancy, and adverse possession, often involving multi-generational family assets and intricate documentation. Our lawyers conduct exhaustive due diligence, title searches, and legal scrutiny to protect our clients' rights in high-value and contested property matters. Given the often-overlapping nature of matrimonial and property disputes, particularly in cases of contested inheritance or marital asset division, we adopt an integrated approach that addresses both legal and practical dimensions. Our objective is always to secure favorable, lasting outcomes while preserving family relationships wherever possible.
Employment & Labour: Service Matters and Labour-Management Disputes
Our Employment & Labour team advises both employers and employees on the full spectrum of service-related matters, from wrongful termination and disciplinary proceedings to wage disputes and workplace harassment claims. We represent clients before Labour Courts, Industrial Tribunals, and Conciliation Officers, and assist in negotiating settlements that protect our clients' interests while minimising disruption. Our team also advises organisations on compliance with labour legislation and internal policy frameworks, as well as on dispute prevention strategies.
Corporate & Criminal Defence: High-value Contractual Arbitrations, White-Collar Crimes, and Regulatory Investigations
Our Corporate & Criminal Defence team handles complex commercial arbitrations involving high-value contracts, helping clients resolve disputes efficiently while protecting their commercial interests. We also defend individuals and organisations facing allegations of white-collar crime, including fraud, financial misconduct, and providing strategic representation at every stage of investigation and trial. Our team works closely with clients under regulatory investigation, ensuring their rights are protected while navigating scrutiny from enforcement agencies.
Public & Regulatory Law: Constitutional Matters, Administrative Law, and Environmental Disputes
Our Public & Regulatory Law team represents clients in constitutional matters, including writ petitions and challenges to government action, ensuring that fundamental rights are upheld. We advise on administrative law issues, helping individuals and organisations navigate regulatory frameworks, licensing disputes, and government decision-making processes. Our environmental law practice supports clients facing disputes over compliance, clearances, and sustainability obligations, balancing legal rigour with practical business needs. With deep experience before constitutional courts and regulatory bodies, we help clients assert their rights and navigate the complexities of public law with confidence.
