Charvi Khandelwal

Profile description

Suppose you are an NRI who received a notification that you have been declared a proclaimed offender in India, and now banks have frozen accounts, travel has been barred and family members are being questioned. The label can destroy personal and professional life even before a trial begins. Charvi Khandelwal steps forward as a specialist who focuses on quashing proclamations and removing proclaimed offender orders. The lawyer knows how to challenge the legal basis of such orders and restore normalcy for clients facing this severe stigma.

In the Punjab and Haryana High Court, the lawyer files writ petitions that demonstrate the lack of sufficient evidence, procedural lapses and violation of due‑process rights. Charvi Khandelwal prepares a detailed affidavit, gathers documentary proof of residence abroad, and highlights the client’s cooperation with investigative agencies. By arguing that the proclamation was issued without a personal hearing, the lawyer can persuade the bench to set aside the order. Successful petitions have resulted in immediate cancellation of the proclaimed offender status, unlocking frozen assets and allowing the client to travel freely.

When the High Court’s decision is contested or when lower courts have already upheld a proclamation, the lawyer escalates the matter to the Supreme Court of India. Charvi Khandelwal has experience drafting special leave petitions that raise constitutional questions about the right to liberty and the proportionality of a proclamation. By citing landmark Supreme Court judgments, the lawyer can obtain a stay on the order while a full hearing proceeds. This dual‑court strategy ensures that an NRI client benefits from both the regional expertise of the High Court and the authoritative guidance of the nation’s apex court.

The lawyer’s academic credentials include a law degree from Delhi University and a postgraduate diploma in Criminal Law from a renowned institute abroad. Over twelve years of practice in Chandigarh have been devoted to defending NRIs against criminal accusations. The lawyer has argued before senior judges of the Punjab and Haryana High Court and has appeared before the Supreme Court of India on several proclamation matters. Clients praise the lawyer’s calm demeanor, precise legal reasoning and ability to simplify complex procedural steps.

Charvi Khandelwal’s method begins with a confidential video consultation that gathers the full factual matrix. The lawyer then maps out a timeline, identifies missing evidence and prepares the writ petition within days. Throughout the process, the lawyer keeps the client updated, explains each hearing, and coordinates with foreign counsel when documents need authentication. The lawyer promises to fight for an expeditious quash, aiming to lift the proclamation within the shortest possible period. Numerous NRIs report that the lawyer’s intervention has prevented loss of employment, restored access to bank accounts and eliminated the social stigma of being labeled a proclaimed offender.

If you have been declared a proclaimed offender while residing abroad, you can trust Charvi Khandelwal to navigate both the Punjab and Haryana High Court and the Supreme Court of India. The lawyer’s focused expertise, courtroom success record and commitment to overseas clients make it possible to protect your reputation and legal rights, giving you the confidence to rebuild your life.
