Aahana Kohli

Profile description

Imagine you are living abroad and receive a notice that a police FIR has been filed against you in Punjab and Haryana High Court. The anxiety of a criminal case reaching across borders can be overwhelming. Aahana Kohli, an NRI specialist advocate based in Chandigarh, helps clients navigate such cross‑jurisdictional challenges from the first call.

Aahana Kohli regularly assists NRIs in getting unlawful FIRs quashed. By filing a petition in the Punjab and Haryana High Court, the advocate examines the factual matrix, identifies procedural flaws and argues for the removal of the complaint before it proceeds to trial. When there is a risk of arrest, the same advocate can move for anticipatory bail, securing a protective order that allows the client to remain free while the investigation continues. Both steps are aimed at halting the momentum of a case before it escalates.

Clients facing criminal complaints that stem from misunderstanding, false accusations or malicious reporting find solid defence with Aahana Kohli. The advocate prepares detailed statements, gathers overseas evidence and presents a coherent narrative to the High Court. In matrimonial disputes that have taken a criminal turn—such as allegations of cruelty, dowry or harassment—the specialist knows how to protect the client’s rights, safeguard reputation and seek a just resolution while respecting the sensitivities of family law.

Property fraud allegations that involve assets located abroad or owned by NRIs often require a nuanced approach. Aahana Kohli can explain the relevant provisions, challenge forged documents and coordinate with forensic experts to dismantle fraudulent claims. When a matter has already progressed to appeal, the advocate is skilled in drafting and filing criminal appeals before the Punjab and Haryana High Court and, when necessary, before the Supreme Court of India. The focus is on highlighting errors in law or fact that can overturn an adverse decision.

Because the client is based overseas, Aahana Kohli prioritises seamless communication. The advocate arranges video consultations, coordinates with local counsel in the client’s country and ensures that all documents are authenticated and filed correctly. Timelines are managed carefully, recognizing that cross‑border investigations can move quickly. By maintaining a proactive stance, the advocate often prevents escalation and reduces the emotional and financial toll on the client.

Recent engagements have shown that prompt filing of quash petitions can lead to dismissal of cases within weeks, while well‑crafted anticipatory bail applications have secured release pending investigation. In complex property fraud disputes, the advocate’s ability to expose forged paperwork has resulted in the recovery of assets and the clearing of criminal records. These outcomes reflect a practical, client‑centered philosophy rather than abstract litigation.

All of these services are delivered with a clear understanding of the procedural landscape of the Punjab and Haryana High Court and the appellate pathways to the Supreme Court of India. Aahana Kohli keeps clients informed at every stage, translating legal jargon into plain language and advising on the practical steps needed to protect assets, liberty and reputation. Whether you need an FIR quashed, anticipatory bail, defence against a criminal complaint, assistance in matrimonial criminal proceedings, protection from property fraud or a strategic criminal appeal, the advocate offers a focused, result‑oriented approach tailored to NRI circumstances.
