Prerna Chauhan

Profile description

Being an NRI and facing a legal obstacle that requires the Supreme Court’s intervention can feel overwhelming, especially when the issue involves special leave petitions or appellate relief. Prerna Chauhan, a Chandigarh‑based advocate, focuses on NRI special leave petitions and appeals before the Supreme Court of India. The lawyer brings more than a decade of experience handling cross‑border disputes, immigration challenges, and criminal matters that affect NRIs, ensuring that the unique aspects of overseas residency are properly represented before the apex bench.

Prerna Chauhan regularly assists NRIs who need to file a Special Leave Petition (SLP) to challenge a lower‑court decision that impacts their freedom, property, or professional status abroad. The advocate is adept at framing arguments that highlight jurisdictional gaps, violation of fundamental rights, and procedural lapses that the Supreme Court can rectify. By presenting comprehensive evidence—including certified overseas documents, expert testimony, and diplomatic correspondence—the lawyer can demonstrate why the SLP deserves the Court’s special attention.

The lawyer also handles appeals on behalf of NRIs who have already secured a favorable order but face enforcement hurdles in India or abroad. Prerna Chauhan’s practice includes drafting meticulous appellate briefs that address both substantive merits and procedural intricacies, such as the application of international treaties or the recognition of foreign judgments. The advocate’s fluency in multiple legal systems enables effective coordination with foreign counsel and ensures that all relevant facts are presented clearly to the Supreme Court.

Educationally, the lawyer holds an LL.M. in International Law from a globally recognized institution and has completed a fellowship with an international human‑rights organization. Earlier roles include a stint as a legal consultant to an embassy, where the lawyer gained practical insight into diplomatic protocols and consular protection.

If you are an NRI confronting a legal barrier that requires Supreme Court intervention, Prerna Chauhan can evaluate the merits of an SLP or appeal, assemble the necessary documentation, and advocate on your behalf before the Supreme Court of India. The lawyer’s strong track record of securing favorable outcomes for clients abroad demonstrates that a focused, well‑prepared petition can overcome even the most complex jurisdictional challenges.
