Hemant Chauhan

Profile description

If you are facing criminal charges and the trial court’s decision appears unfair, you may consider filing a revision before the Punjab and Haryana High Court. Hemant Chauhan is a seasoned criminal lawyer in Chandigarh who handles High Court Criminal Revision, Anticipatory Bail, and Criminal Case Transfer, with the ability to take matters to the Supreme Court of India when necessary.

Hemant Chauhan earned a law degree from Panjab University and subsequently completed a postgraduate programme in Criminal Law and Procedure. Over the past eighteen years, the lawyer has served in the public prosecutor’s office and later as senior counsel in private practice. This blend of prosecutorial and defence experience gives the lawyer a unique perspective on how courts assess criminal appeals and revisions. The lawyer also regularly attends seminars on the latest Supreme Court rulings, ensuring that clients benefit from contemporary legal standards.

When a conviction is challenged, Hemant Chauhan can file a High Court revision petition that points out errors of law, improper application of evidence, or procedural flaws in the trial court’s judgment. The lawyer prepares a concise petition, highlights critical case law, and argues before the bench to secure a reversal, modification, or remand. The lawyer’s track record includes several successful revisions that have reduced sentences, acquitted wrongly convicted individuals, and restored reputations.

In urgent criminal matters, an anticipatory bail may be essential to protect personal liberty while the investigation proceeds. Hemant Chauhan can help you apply for anticipatory bail in the High Court, outlining why the case does not warrant immediate arrest and presenting safeguards that address the court’s concerns. The lawyer’s skill in framing arguments around the balance between individual rights and public interest often results in bail being granted, allowing the client to cooperate with investigators without fear of incarceration.

Sometimes the jurisdiction of the trial court is not appropriate, and a transfer of the criminal case to another High Court can be crucial for a fair trial. Hemant Chauhan regularly assists clients in filing transfer petitions, citing reasons such as biased trial environment, media pressure, or the location of key witnesses. The lawyer’s experience in drafting persuasive petitions has led to successful transfers that ensure a neutral forum for adjudication.

If a High Court decision needs further review, Hemant Chauhan can take the appeal to the Supreme Court of India. The lawyer prepares detailed special leave petitions, citing constitutional and legal precedents, and argues before the apex court to protect fundamental rights. Clients appreciate the lawyer’s commitment to exhaustive research, meticulous drafting, and confident oral advocacy. Throughout every stage, Hemant Chauhan keeps clients informed, outlines realistic outcomes, and works tirelessly to achieve the most favorable result under the law.
