Chethan Srivastava

Profile description

Imagine being detained abroad and fearing that a sudden restriction on your foreign travel will ruin your career and family plans. Chethan Srivastava is an advocate who specializes in defending NRIs against anticipatory bail issues, criminal appeals, and foreign travel restrictions, working in both the Punjab and Haryana High Court and the Supreme Court of India.

Chethan regularly assists clients who need anticipatory bail to prevent arrest while a criminal case is still under investigation. The advocate’s background includes a Master of Laws in Criminal Procedure and over twelve years of courtroom experience. By presenting detailed affidavits and demonstrating the absence of flight risk, Chethan has secured anticipatory bail for numerous NRIs, allowing them to remain at liberty while the investigation proceeds.

When an NRI case reaches the appellate stage, Chethan brings deep familiarity with the procedural requirements of the Punjab and Haryana High Court and the Supreme Court of India. The advocate prepares comprehensive revision petitions, highlights errors in trial judgments, and leverages precedents that favor the appellant. Recent successes include overturning convictions that were based on procedural lapses, thereby clearing the records of clients and restoring their professional standing.

Travel restrictions imposed on NRIs—often issued after a foreign investigation or as part of a bail condition—can halt personal and business commitments. Chethan can explain the legal avenues to challenge such restrictions, file appropriate petitions, and argue for the lifting of sanctions that lack substantive justification. The advocate’s cross‑border expertise enables effective coordination with foreign counsel and authorities, ensuring that the client’s right to move freely is defended at every level.

Clients value Chethan’s transparent communication style. An initial case review identifies the strengths and weaknesses of the situation, after which a customized roadmap is shared. The advocate provides regular updates on court dates, filing deadlines, and strategic adjustments, keeping the client fully informed throughout the process.

Beyond litigation, Chethan offers preventive advice to NRIs who wish to avoid future travel bans. This includes guidance on complying with reporting requirements, maintaining clear documentation of financial transactions, and understanding the implications of international cooperation agreements. The advocate’s proactive stance helps clients minimize the risk of future legal entanglements.

If you are an NRI concerned about anticipatory bail, an upcoming appeal, or a travel restriction, Chethan Srivastava provides a focused, results‑driven approach. The advocate’s proven track record in the Punjab and Haryana High Court and the Supreme Court of India demonstrates a capacity to protect your liberty and professional future.
