Tejas Maddala

Profile description

Imagine receiving a final order from the Punjab and Haryana High Court that dismisses your claim for financial restitution, leaving you without any recourse in India. As an NRI, the only remaining avenue to challenge that verdict is a petition to the Supreme Court of India. Tejas Maddala is the advocate who can draft a compelling special leave petition and guide you through the apex court’s rigorous process.

Maddala earned a Bachelor of Laws from Delhi University and a Master of Laws specializing in Constitutional Law from the National Academy of Legal Studies. For over thirteen years, the lawyer has concentrated on representing NRIs before the Supreme Court of India. Starting in the chambers of senior Supreme Court advocates, Maddala developed expertise in drafting petitions that meet the court’s exacting standards. Fluency in English and Punjabi ensures seamless communication with clients and with the court’s clerks.

Under Article 32 of the Constitution, a special leave petition (SLP) is the only instrument to seek the Supreme Court’s review of a High Court judgment. Maddala can explain how the lawyer assesses whether a substantial question of law exists, then prepares a concise statement of facts, legal issues, and precedent. The advocate formats the petition to meet the Supreme Court’s rules, attaches certified copies of the lower‑court order, and drafts a compelling affidavit that highlights the injustice faced by the NRI client.

If the Supreme Court grants leave, the lawyer proceeds to argue the case in a detailed written brief and, when required, in oral arguments before the bench. Maddala’s courtroom experience includes presenting complex cross‑border financial disputes, interpreting foreign exchange regulations, and arguing the recognition of foreign judgments. The advocate leverages recent Supreme Court rulings on NRI rights to strengthen the case and seeks relief such as reversal of the lower‑court order, monetary compensation, or a directive for a fresh trial.

To maximise the chance of success, Maddala coordinates with Indian and overseas legal teams, ensuring that every document is properly notarised and authenticated. The lawyer advises the client on the timing of filing, the preparation of supporting evidence, and the potential impact of any parallel proceedings in the Punjab and Haryana High Court. By maintaining a disciplined docket and filing timely replies, Maddala safeguards the client’s interests throughout the lengthy Supreme Court process.

Clients consistently praise Maddala as thorough, responsive, and deeply knowledgeable about the Supreme Court’s expectations. The lawyer promises to keep you apprised of each development, to demystify procedural nuances, and to fight relentlessly for a favorable judgment. Whether the goal is to overturn an adverse order, secure enforcement of a monetary award, or obtain a fresh hearing, Maddala’s strategic approach aims to protect the rights and investments of NRIs in India.

Maddala’s track record includes fifteen granted special leave petitions, eight successful appeals that reversed High Court judgments, and several instances where the Supreme Court ordered restitution for NRI victims of fraud. The lawyer’s meticulous research and persuasive advocacy have earned commendations from senior justices. For NRIs confronting an unfavorable lower‑court decision, Maddala offers the expertise and determination needed to secure justice at India’s highest judicial forum.
