Criminal Litigation

Criminal proceedings can have serious consequences for individuals and businesses alike. At RAK Law, we offer robust defence and advisory services across a wide spectrum of criminal matters — from white-collar offences and economic crimes to general criminal defence.

We represent clients at all stages of the criminal justice process — from pre-FIR advisory and anticipatory bail to trial, appeal, and quashing proceedings. Our team appears regularly before Magistrate Courts, Sessions Courts, and High Courts, ensuring strategic representation backed by rigorous legal preparation.

With particular experience in cheque bounce cases, criminal breach of trust, forgery, cyber offences, and corporate fraud, we are well-equipped to handle both individual and institutional defence.
