Profile description

When a legal battle reaches a point where the matter must be heard by the nation’s highest court, the stakes are at their highest. A Supreme Court Transfer Petition or a Special Leave Petition can determine whether a case proceeds in the apex court or remains with a lower tribunal. Karan Kohli is a lawyer who specializes in these crucial procedures.

Karan Kohli graduated from the National Law School of India University and earned a Master of Laws in Constitutional Law from the University of Delhi. Over fifteen years of practice, the lawyer has built a reputation for guiding clients through the complex filing requirements of the Supreme Court of India. Whether it is a transfer petition seeking to move a case from a State High Court to the Supreme Court, or a Special Leave Petition (SLP) requesting the Court’s discretionary jurisdiction to hear an appeal, Karan has the expertise to craft persuasive submissions.

In transfer petitions, Karan regularly assists clients who believe that the Supreme Court is the appropriate forum because of a substantial question of law, a conflict among High Courts, or the need for uniform interpretation. The lawyer prepares comprehensive memoranda, cites precedents, and highlights the public interest component that often sways the Court’s discretion. In a recent transfer petition involving a multi‑state environmental dispute, Karan’s argument convinced the Supreme Court to accept jurisdiction, allowing a coordinated resolution that benefitted all parties.

Special Leave Petitions are even more selective, as the Court grants them only when a substantial injustice would otherwise occur. Karan’s approach is to identify the most compelling legal errors, constitutional issues, or violations of fundamental rights. By presenting a concise yet thorough case, the lawyer increases the likelihood of the Court granting leave. In a high‑profile SLP concerning a wrongful termination claim, Karan secured leave, leading to a landmark judgment that clarified employer liability under the Constitution.

Clients value the lawyer’s strategic mindset and transparent communication. Karan explains the procedural timeline, the documentation required, and realistic expectations about the Court’s discretionary power. The lawyer also advises on parallel litigation strategies, ensuring that a client’s interests are protected whether the Supreme Court takes up the case or not.

If you need to file a Transfer Petition or a Special Leave Petition, Karan Kohli can help you navigate the Supreme Court’s exacting standards and maximize the chance of success. The lawyer’s extensive experience, meticulous preparation, and focus on achieving substantive justice make Karan a trusted advocate for cases that demand the highest judicial scrutiny.
