Jinal Srivastava

Profile description

You are an Indian national living abroad and have been detained or your family has received a notice that a legal proceeding in India could affect your liberty. Navigating the Indian judicial system from overseas adds layers of difficulty. Jinal Srivastava specialises in NRI Special Leave Petitions and appeals before the Supreme Court of India, offering a bridge between your location and the apex court’s procedures. The advocate regularly assists non‑resident Indians who confront detention, extradition issues, or adverse orders that threaten their freedom while they are abroad.

An NRI SLP requires careful coordination of jurisdictional arguments, proof of residence, and often the need to articulate international human‑rights considerations within Indian law. Jinal can explain how the petition will argue that the Supreme Court should exercise its discretionary power to review the lower court’s decision, especially when the order impacts an individual outside India’s territory. The lawyer also prepares appeals that challenge the Supreme Court’s own directions, ensuring that any adverse ruling can be contested effectively.

The lawyer’s academic foundation includes a doctorate in International Law and a specialization in cross‑border criminal matters. After serving as a legal adviser to the Ministry of External Affairs on NRI cases, Jinal has spent over twelve years representing clients before the Supreme Court in matters ranging from unlawful detention to extradition refusals. The advocate boasts a robust record of obtaining bail, stay orders, or revocation of extradition warrants for NRI clients, often preserving their ability to remain abroad while the case proceeds.

Jinal’s methodology blends rigorous legal research with pragmatic logistical support. The advocate works with a network of overseas correspondents to collect evidence, verify documents, and ensure timely filing despite time‑zone differences. Clients receive clear explanations of each procedural step, and the lawyer schedules virtual consultations to keep families informed. This coordinated approach has led to multiple successful outcomes where the Supreme Court intervened to protect the rights of non‑resident Indians.

While the Supreme Court’s discretion cannot be guaranteed, Jinal Srivastava promises diligent advocacy, strategic insight, and an unwavering commitment to safeguarding your freedom across borders. The lawyer’s proven success in NRI SLPs and appeals demonstrates a deep familiarity with the nuances of international and constitutional law. If you need an experienced advocate to navigate a Special Leave Petition or appeal from abroad, Jinal can help you secure the relief you deserve.
