Shreyas Sangwan

Profile description

You have just returned to India after a brief visit abroad and discovered that an FIR has been lodged against you in Chandigarh while you were still overseas. The filing has frozen your bank accounts, put your name on a public register, and jeopardised a pending overseas job. Shreyas Sangwan steps in at this critical moment to protect your rights and restore your freedom.

Shreyas Sangwan regularly assists NRI clients in having FIRs quashed before the Punjab and Haryana High Court. The lawyer has built a reputation for filing precise revision petitions that demonstrate lack of jurisdiction, procedural irregularities, or insufficient evidence. By meticulously reviewing the original complaint, gathering affidavits from witnesses abroad, and presenting expert opinions on the factual timeline, the lawyer helps the court see that the FIR should not stand. Successful quashing means the accused record is expunged, assets are released, and travel can resume without the shadow of a pending case.

When Indian authorities issue travel bans or prohibit an NRI from leaving the country, the stakes rise dramatically. Shreyas Sangwan can help you challenge such restrictions before the High Court, arguing that the orders violate constitutional liberty and are unsupported by credible investigation. The lawyer prepares detailed memoranda that cite case law on personal liberty, prepares passport surrender objections, and coordinates with overseas counsel to show that the travel restriction is disproportionate. By securing an order that lifts the ban, the lawyer enables you to fulfil professional commitments abroad and protect family interests.

A graduate of a premier national law university with a postgraduate degree in International Criminal Law, Shreyas Sangwan has over twelve years of practice focused on cross‑border criminal matters. The lawyer has appeared in more than thirty FIR‑quashing hearings and achieved a high success rate, including landmark rulings that have been cited in subsequent judgments. Clients regularly praise the lawyer’s ability to explain complex procedural steps in plain language, to act swiftly when time‑sensitive deadlines arise, and to keep them informed throughout the litigation journey.

The approach is personal and results‑oriented. The lawyer conducts an initial fact‑finding session, outlines a clear strategy, and sets realistic expectations about timelines and possible outcomes. By combining courtroom advocacy with off‑court negotiations, the lawyer often secures a settlement that avoids protracted litigation. Whether you need an FIR quashed, a travel ban lifted, or advice on how to protect your rights while abroad, Shreyas Sangwan brings the experience, legal acumen, and dedication needed to achieve a favorable resolution.
