In the Punjab and Haryana High Court, Himani Sandhu regularly assists clients by filing pre‑trial applications that challenge the veracity of the prosecution’s evidence.

When a conviction has already been rendered, Himani Sandhu can file criminal review petitions before the Supreme Court of India, seeking relief on grounds such as legal error, miscarriage of justice, or violation of constitutional rights. They have successfully obtained quashings of convictions where the trial court failed to apply the correct statutory definition of breach of trust, or where evidence was admitted without adhering to due‑process norms.
