Aishwarya Maddala

Profile description

You have been served with a First Information Report (FIR) that alleges serious wrongdoing, and your passport has been impounded, leaving you stranded abroad. A swift legal response is essential to protect your freedom and reputation. Aishwarya Maddala focuses on NRI FIR quashing, passport impounding writ petitions, and challenges to foreign travel restrictions before the Punjab and Haryana High Court at Chandigarh.

Aishwarya regularly assists clients who need an FIR quashed on the grounds of lack of merit, procedural irregularities, or wrongful filing. She files precise applications under the appropriate criminal procedure rules, arguing for the dismissal of the FIR and securing an order that prevents the investigation from proceeding. By presenting a clear factual narrative and highlighting deficiencies in the police report, she can obtain relief that averts the escalation of a criminal case.

When a passport is seized, Aishwarya turns to writ petitions that request immediate release. She explains the impact of an impounded passport on personal liberty and professional obligations, especially for NRIs who need to travel for work, family, or medical reasons. Her petitions emphasize constitutional rights to freedom of movement and the absence of a justifiable risk, often persuading the High Court to order swift passport restoration.

Travel bans imposed by foreign authorities are another arena where Aishwarya has proven skill. She challenges such restrictions by filing petitions that question the legal basis of the ban, present evidence of compliance with international norms, and request the court’s intervention to lift the prohibition. Her work has resulted in multiple orders that allow clients to resume international travel without undue hindrance.

Aishwarya completed her LL.B. at Panjab University, followed by a Master’s in International Human Rights Law from an acclaimed institution abroad. Over ten years of practice, she has worked within a leading Chandigarh chamber before focusing exclusively on NRI criminal matters. Her background includes stints with NGOs that advocate for the rights of expatriates, giving her a nuanced perspective on cross‑border legal issues.

Her service model begins with an emergency consultation to assess the urgency of the FIR or passport issue. She then drafts and files the necessary writs, coordinating with local investigators, foreign embassies, and expert witnesses as needed. Throughout the case, Aishwarya provides clear, regular updates in simple language, ensuring clients remain informed of every development.

Clients commend her for her decisive action, her ability to simplify complex procedures, and her dedication to protecting personal liberty. She promises to fight vigorously for the quashing of any unfounded FIR, the rapid return of impounded passports, and the removal of travel bans that lack legal justification.

If an FIR has been lodged against you, or if your passport has been seized, contact Aishwarya Maddala for a focused consultation. She will leverage her expertise before the Punjab and Haryana High Court to protect your rights, restore your mobility, and safeguard your reputation.
