Profile description

If a High Court order has halted a business expansion, stopped a construction project, or imposed an unexpected restriction, the frustration can feel overwhelming. Knowing that there is a mechanism to seek relief from the apex court offers a path forward, and Divleen Sethi is ready to guide you through that process. As a lawyer who focuses on Special Leave Petitions against High Court orders, Divleen Sethi helps clients present compelling arguments before the Supreme Court of India and work toward overturning or modifying decisions that appear unjust or unsupported by law.

Divleen Sethi’s practice revolves around the preparation and filing of Special Leave Petitions (SLPs). An SLP is the only route to ask the Supreme Court to review a High Court judgment when no other appeal is available. The lawyer assesses whether the High Court order raises a substantial question of law or involves a grave miscarriage of justice. By examining the record in detail, Divleen Sethi can highlight procedural lapses, erroneous legal interpretations, or instances where the High Court exceeded its jurisdiction. This analytical rigor forms the backbone of a strong petition, increasing the likelihood that the Supreme Court will grant leave to proceed.

Understanding the Supreme Court’s standards is essential, and Divleen Sethi brings that expertise to every case. The lawyer prepares concise, well‑structured petitions that obey the Court’s strict formatting rules while clearly laying out the factual background, the legal issue, and the relief sought. In many instances, a meticulously drafted SLP can prompt the Supreme Court to issue a stay, preserving the status quo while the petition is considered. Divleen Sethi regularly assists clients in drafting interim relief applications, ensuring that critical rights or assets are protected during the pendency of the petition.

Once the petition reaches the Supreme Court, the lawyer’s role expands to advocacy during hearings. Divleen Sethi can articulate the client’s position before a bench of judges, respond to their questions, and adapt arguments on the spot. The lawyer’s familiarity with Supreme Court procedures helps avoid common pitfalls that can delay or derail a petition. By maintaining clear communication with the client, Divleen Sethi ensures that expectations are realistic and that the client stays informed about each stage of the matter.

Beyond the core petition work, Divleen Sethi offers strategic advice on related legal steps. If a High Court order involves a stay of execution, for example, the lawyer can explain how to seek enforcement of the original decree while the Supreme Court reviews the case. When the order affects property, contracts, or employment, Divleen Sethi coordinates with specialists in those fields to build a holistic approach. This collaborative method reduces the risk of surprise setbacks and strengthens the overall legal narrative presented to the Supreme Court.
