Contact and consultation

The forum depends on the relief and stage. A criminal matter may move from the Magistrate or Sessions Court to the Patna High Court; matrimonial proceedings may lie before Patna Family Court; service and public-law challenges may invoke Article 226; property disputes may require a civil or revenue forum; and registered-project disputes may go to Bihar RERA. The documents and impugned action must be reviewed before the forum is chosen.

Send a short chronology with dates, the latest notice or order, and the core document that created the dispute: for example an FIR, summons, sale deed, appointment order, tender document, agreement for sale, cheque return memo or matrimonial petition. Avoid sending hundreds of unlabelled files. A clean index makes the first assessment faster and reduces the risk of missing a deadline.

An initial conversation can identify urgency, forum and the documents required. Do not send privileged or sensitive information to an unverified number, and do not rely on a chat message as a filed legal response. Formal engagement, document review and the appropriate filing process remain necessary before representation begins.

Professional fees depend on the forum, urgency, complexity, preparation and stage of the proceeding. Court fee, certified copies, process fee, clerkage, travel, expert reports and other case expenses may be separate. Ask for clarity on what work is included, when payment is due and whether later applications, hearings or appeals require a separate arrangement.

No. The pages provide general information and research-oriented explanations. A professional relationship begins only after conflicts, documents, scope and engagement are addressed. Laws, notifications and case law also change, so a general page should never replace advice on the actual record.

Use official advocate-search or AUIN facilities where available and ask for the relevant professional identifiers. This website displays the name, enrolment reference and AUIN supplied for Advocate Ankit Kumar Singh and links to the official Patna High Court verification facility.

No. Outcomes depend on evidence, statutory restrictions, the opposing record, procedural compliance and judicial assessment. The purpose of a detailed page is to help you identify the correct questions, documents and forum - not to promise a result.

India’s current criminal procedure framework is the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023. Older orders and familiar terminology may still refer to corresponding CrPC provisions, so the pages identify current BNSS sections while explaining the procedural idea in plain language.
