As crime against women lawyer in Gurugram, we handle these matters on either side, and never for both sides of the same dispute.
For a woman seeking protection
- Applications under the Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act, 2005 — protection, residence, monetary relief and custody orders
- Complaints under Section 85 BNS, formerly Section 498A IPC
- Maintenance under Section 144 BNSS and under personal law
- Stalking and harassment, including online — see cyber crime
- Workplace harassment before the Internal Committee under the POSH Act, 2013
For a family facing a Section 85 FIR
Section 85 FIRs frequently name parents, siblings and relatives who live in other cities. The Supreme Court has warned against exactly that, and our first step is usually anticipatory bail for everyone named, followed by an examination of what each person is actually alleged to have done. Where the allegation is general and undifferentiated, quashing as to those relatives is often available.
Settlement
Many of these files run alongside a divorce, and settle together with it. Where that is the sensible course, we say so early rather than after two years of litigation.
In immediate danger, call 112. Women's helpline 181.
