What Happens After Arrest — How Our Criminal Lawyers Help
Speed is everything in criminal cases. Here is exactly what our criminal lawyers in Delhi do from the moment you call.
Immediate Phone Consultation — 24/7
Call +91 9599801188 immediately — arrested, received a police notice, or worried about arrest. Our criminal lawyer assesses the situation, confirms the offence and court, and advises on immediate next steps within minutes.
Review FIR / Arrest Details
We obtain a copy of the FIR, identify the section(s) charged, assess whether the offence is bailable or non-bailable, and determine the appropriate forum — Magistrate, Sessions Court, or Delhi High Court — for the bail application.
Production Before Magistrate — 24-Hour Rule
Every arrested person must be produced before a Magistrate within 24 hours of arrest. We ensure this constitutional right is enforced and oppose police remand — seeking judicial custody or bail at the first hearing itself.
Bail Application Filing & Arguing
We draft a strong bail application highlighting grounds for bail — clean antecedents, ties to community, no flight risk, parity with co-accused, and the merits of the case — and argue before the court seeking immediate release.
If Bail Denied — Escalation to Higher Court
If bail is denied at the Magistrate level, we immediately file before the Sessions Court. If denied there, we approach the Delhi High Court with a stronger application — addressing the lower court's specific objections.
FIR Quashing (if applicable)
Parallel to bail proceedings, we evaluate whether the FIR can be quashed at the Delhi High Court — filing a Section 528 BNSS petition where grounds exist, and seeking a stay on further proceedings in the meantime.
Trial Preparation & Defence Strategy
After bail is secured, we prepare the trial defence — reviewing the chargesheet, identifying evidentiary weaknesses, preparing cross-examination strategy for police witnesses, and filing discharge application where applicable.
Trial, Acquittal or Appeal
We represent the accused through the complete criminal trial — evidence stage, final arguments, and judgment. If conviction results, we evaluate and file a criminal appeal before the Delhi High Court or Supreme Court.

Frequently Asked Questions — Best Criminal Lawyers in Delhi
Common questions about criminal defence, bail, FIR quashing, and legal representation in Delhi NCR.
Global Vision Law Firm is led by Advocate Amarendra Kumar Dubey — Founder and Managing Partner with 13+ years of criminal litigation experience across Metropolitan Magistrate Courts, Sessions Courts, Delhi High Court, and Supreme Court of India. The firm's criminal team handles bail applications, anticipatory bail, FIR quashing, NDPS defence, white-collar crime, economic offences, Section 498A matters, cheque bounce, and criminal appeals — with 24/7 availability for urgent arrests. We are updated on all three new criminal laws operative from July 1, 2024 — BNS, BNSS, and BSA.
Bail is applied for after arrest — the accused is produced before a Magistrate and seeks release from custody. Anticipatory bail (Section 482 BNSS) is sought before arrest, when arrest is apprehended for a non-bailable offence. Anticipatory bail is applied before the Sessions Court or Delhi High Court. If granted, the person is released immediately upon arrest. Engaging a top criminal lawyer in Delhi at the anticipatory bail stage can prevent arrest entirely — which is far preferable to applying for regular bail after custody.
FIR quashing is done under Section 528 BNSS (earlier Section 482 CrPC) before the Delhi High Court. Grounds include: the FIR discloses no cognizable offence, the matter is purely civil, the FIR is filed as abuse of process, or the parties have genuinely settled. The Delhi HC has wide inherent powers to quash FIRs. An experienced criminal advocate in Delhi evaluates quashing viability and files with strong grounds — also seeking a stay on investigation or arrest in the meantime.
(1) Remain silent — do not make any statement without a lawyer present; (2) Call our criminal lawyer immediately at +91 9599801188 — 24/7; (3) Exercise your right to be produced before a Magistrate within 24 hours; (4) Our lawyer will apply for bail at the first hearing; (5) If bail is denied at Magistrate level, we escalate to Sessions Court or Delhi High Court immediately. The first 24 hours after arrest are the most critical — acting immediately dramatically improves bail prospects.
Yes — absolutely. An ED summons (under PMLA Section 50) or CBI notice requires immediate legal guidance. You should not appear before the ED or CBI alone or without a lawyer. Our criminal advocates in Delhi accompany clients to ED/CBI office, advise on what to say, review all documents to be shared, and protect clients from inadvertent self-incrimination. In PMLA matters, we also file applications challenging arrest, custody, and provisional attachment orders before the Special PMLA Court and Delhi High Court.
From July 1, 2024, three new criminal laws replaced the old colonial-era statutes: the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS) replaced IPC; the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita (BNSS) replaced CrPC; and the Bharatiya Sakshya Adhiniyam (BSA) replaced the Evidence Act. Key changes include: new sections for organised crime and terrorism, mandatory audio-video recording of accused statements, stricter timelines for chargesheets, and new provisions for electronic evidence. Our criminal lawyers in Delhi are fully trained on all BNSS 2023 provisions operative from July 1, 2024.
Criminal lawyer fees in Delhi depend on case nature, court level, and complexity. Indicative ranges: Bail at District Courts: Rs 5,000 – Rs 25,000; Delhi HC bail/anticipatory bail: Rs 15,000 – Rs 75,000; FIR quashing petition: Rs 25,000 – Rs 1 lakh+; Full criminal trial: quoted separately. Global Vision Law Firm provides a written fee estimate after a free first consultation. Official court fees for criminal matters are nominal — the main cost is the lawyer's professional fee. Call +91 9599801188 for a free assessment.
Bail applications in Delhi are heard at three levels: (1) Metropolitan Magistrate Courts — for bailable offences and first bail applications in non-bailable cases after arrest; (2) Sessions Courts (Additional Sessions Judge) — for non-bailable offences and when Magistrate bail is denied; (3) Delhi High Court — when Sessions Court bail is denied, or directly for anticipatory bail in serious matters. Our criminal lawyers appear at all three levels across all Delhi district court complexes — Tis Hazari, Patiala House, Karkardooma, Saket, Dwarka, and Rohini.

Emergency & Immediate Crisis
If police arrest a family member, remain calm, note the police station and FIR number, and call a lawyer immediately — Global Vision Law Firm assists 24/7 to appear at the first Magistrate hearing and pursue bail without delay.
No — under BNSS, police cannot hold you for more than 24 hours without taking you to court for production before a Magistrate; Global Vision Law Firm ensures this right is enforced immediately after any arrest.
You are not legally compelled to answer police questions without your lawyer present, and Global Vision Law Firm advises exercising your right to silence under Article 20(3) until counsel arrives.
Generally no — police need a warrant or a specific legal exception to search your phone or house; Global Vision Law Firm can challenge any search conducted without proper authorization or documented grounds.

Anticipation & Fear of False Cases

Family & Relative Perspective
To get your husband or son out of police lockup on bail, a lawyer must file a bail application at the earliest Magistrate hearing; Global Vision Law Firm handles emergency bail filings around the clock across Delhi NCR.

A criminal case can be settled out of court through a compromise for compoundable offences like cheque bounce or simple hurt, but not for serious crimes; Global Vision Law Firm negotiates settlements and files compounding applications.
The difference between a bailable and a non-bailable offense is that bail is a right the police must grant in the former, while it's the court's discretion in the latter; Global Vision Law Firm assesses which applies to your case.
After the police file a chargesheet in court, the judge frames charges if a prima facie case exists, or the accused can seek discharge; Global Vision Law Firm reviews every chargesheet closely for discharge grounds.
How long a criminal trial usually takes to complete varies widely, from months to several years, depending on complexity and court backlog; Global Vision Law Firm pursues timely hearings to keep trials moving.
If your bail application is rejected by the Sessions Court, the next step is filing before the Delhi High Court with a stronger plea addressing the objections; Global Vision Law Firm handles this escalation urgently.
Collateral Damage & Consequences
