Litigation & Arbitration

Civil litigation

Litigation is the discipline our chambers was built around. We appear before the Madras High Court, city civil courts, district courts across Tamil Nadu, tribunals and arbitral panels — in recovery suits, specific performance actions, injunctions, writ petitions, appeals and execution proceedings.

Within this practice, our work on civil litigation covers Recovery and money suits, specific performance, declaration and injunction actions, partition suits, tenancy and eviction, and damages claims..

Our approach is deliberately unglamorous: complete documents, an early theory of the case, a witness plan drafted before the first hearing, and honest advice about settlement value. Clients are told the realistic range of outcomes and the likely timeline, including the delays that no counsel can remove.

What this covers

Rarely. Your presence is generally needed only for evidence, certain family matters, and where a judge directs personal appearance. Everything else is handled by counsel.

A drafting and filing fee for the pleadings, then agreed appearance fees per effective hearing. You receive an estimate for each stage in advance, and we do not bill for adjournments we did not cause.
