Bhavin Mohanty

Profile description

If you have been accused of misappropriating funds or violating a fiduciary duty, the charge of criminal breach of trust can threaten your reputation and liberty. Bhavin Mohanty understands the urgency of such allegations and works to protect your rights before the Punjab and Haryana High Court at Chandigarh.

The lawyer approaches a breach of trust defence by dissecting the prosecution’s evidence, challenging the legal classification of the act, and highlighting any lack of dishonest intent. Bhavin Mohanty regularly assists clients in presenting rigorous documentary proof, witness testimonies, and expert analyses that demonstrate a legitimate business transaction rather than a criminal conversion. By constructing a narrative that shows compliance with contractual terms and the absence of malice, the lawyer has secured acquittals and significant reductions in penalties in several complex financial disputes.

When a lower court’s order appears to be legally untenable, criminal revision becomes a vital remedy. Bhavin Mohanty can help you file a revision petition that asks the Punjab and Haryana High Court to reconsider its decision on the grounds of misappreciation of law or factual errors. The lawyer prepares concise revision briefs that pinpoint the specific points of law that were overlooked, such as the correct interpretation of Section 406 of the Indian Penal Code. In recent cases the lawyer’s revisions have led to the reversal of convictions, the restoration of assets, and the setting aside of unjust sentencing.

In some instances the trial court may discharge a case on procedural grounds, only for the prosecution to later seek a reopening of the matter. Bhavin Mohanty specializes in criminal revision against discharge orders, arguing that the discharge was improper because the court failed to examine essential evidence or because new material has emerged. The lawyer files detailed petitions that persuade the High Court to rescind the discharge, allowing the matter to proceed to trial where the client’s defence can be fully presented. Successful challenges have resulted in the reopening of cases that were prematurely closed, giving clients a fair opportunity to contest the allegations.

Overall, Bhavin Mohanty brings over a decade of experience fighting financial and fiduciary crimes in the Punjab and Haryana High Court. The lawyer holds a Master of Laws from a leading university and has previously served as a legal researcher for the High Court, gaining deep insight into judicial reasoning. Clients value the lawyer’s systematic case preparation, clear communication, and relentless focus on protecting their interests. Whether you need a robust defence against a breach of trust charge, a strategic revision of an adverse judgment, or a challenge to an improper discharge, Bhavin Mohanty can explain the process, outline realistic expectations, and work tirelessly to achieve the best possible outcome.
