Manav Dahiya

Profile description

Your family’s property in India has been frozen based on a criminal complaint filed abroad, and you fear the loss of assets you have built over years. Manav Dahiya is a dedicated lawyer who focuses on NRI Special Leave Petitions and Appeals, NRI Criminal Complaint Defence, and NRI Property Fraud Defence. With more than ten years of experience before the Punjab and Haryana High Court at Chandigarh and the Supreme Court of India, the advocate has turned adverse rulings into victories for overseas clients.

Manav Dahiya completed a law degree at the University of Delhi and earned a master’s in International Commercial Law from the London School of Economics. Early practice in Delhi involved defending NRIs against fraud allegations and navigating cross‑border criminal investigations. A later senior role in a Chandigarh boutique firm allowed the lawyer to hone expertise in appellate advocacy at the highest level.

The lawyer regularly assists NRI clients who face criminal complaints that threaten property ownership. Manav Dahiya can explain how a Special Leave Petition filed in the Supreme Court of India can challenge a lower‑court order that mistakenly treats a legitimate transaction as fraudulent. The lawyer’s well‑structured petitions focus on jurisdictional errors, lack of evidence, and violations of due process, often prompting the Supreme Court to set aside the impugned judgment.

When a criminal complaint is lodged abroad, the lawyer coordinates with foreign investigators, obtains authenticated documents, and prepares a defence that highlights inconsistencies in the accusation. Manav Dahiya’s experience includes defending NRIs accused of money‑laundering, undocumented transfers, and false representation. Successful outcomes range from dismissal of charges to acquittal in summary trials, with the Punjab and Haryana High Court acknowledging the insufficiency of the complaint.

Property fraud defence is another pillar of the practice. The lawyer has helped clients reclaim land, houses, and commercial assets that were seized on the basis of fabricated documents. By filing writ petitions that expose forged records and by presenting clear title evidence, the lawyer has secured orders that restore ownership and award damages for wrongful seizure. Publications in real‑estate law journals cite the lawyer’s strategies as best practices for cross‑border property protection.

Manav Dahiya also advises NRIs on preventive measures, including proper documentation, registration of overseas transactions, and early legal consultation before engaging in high‑value deals. The advocate conducts webinars for the diaspora, explaining how to respond promptly to criminal complaints and protect assets from fraudulent claims.

If you are an NRI confronting a criminal complaint, a property fraud allegation, or an adverse lower‑court order, Manav Dahiya can help you seek relief through Special Leave Petitions, robust criminal defence, and property fraud litigation. The lawyer will assess the facts, craft a precise petition, and advocate before the Punjab and Haryana High Court at Chandigarh and the Supreme Court of India. With a strong record of overturning wrongful orders and defending property rights, the lawyer offers a dependable avenue to safeguard your interests.
