Criminal Law — frequently asked questions
What is the difference between bail and anticipatory bail?+
Anticipatory bail is applied for before an arrest, by someone who expects to be arrested in a case; regular bail is applied for after arrest or while already in custody. Both ask a court to secure liberty, but they are filed at different stages and are decided on different considerations.
What should I do first if an FIR has been registered against me?+
Obtain a copy of the FIR and speak to a criminal lawyer before saying anything to the police. The FIR sets out the sections alleged, which determines whether the offence is bailable, whether anticipatory bail is worth applying for, and how urgent the next step is.
Can an FIR be quashed?+
Yes, in the right circumstances. A High Court can quash an FIR or the proceedings that follow it — for example where the allegations do not disclose an offence, or where the matter has been genuinely settled between the parties in a case that permits it. Whether that route is open depends entirely on the sections alleged and the facts.
How long does a criminal trial take in Delhi?+
There is no fixed answer: it depends on the offence, the number of witnesses, the court's docket and whether the accused is in custody. Cases where the accused is in custody are generally taken up faster. An advocate can give you a realistic range once they have seen the chargesheet.
Do you handle NDPS and other serious offences?+
Yes. NDPS matters are handled as a separate specialisation because bail and procedure work differently under that Act — see the NDPS & Drug Offense page for detail.
These answers explain how the law and the process generally work. They are not legal advice on any particular matter — how they apply to yours depends on its facts.
