Sanket Srivastava regularly assists clients in filing Supreme Court transfer petitions, a mechanism that moves a case from a subordinate court to the nation’s apex bench.

In recent matters, the lawyer has obtained leave for clients facing serious offenses, leading to full reversals or substantial reductions in sentences.

The criminal review petition allows a final opportunity to challenge a conviction after all other remedies have been exhausted. Sanket Srivastava knows how to craft a review that points to grave procedural violations, new evidence, or violations of constitutional rights. The lawyer meticulously assembles fresh forensic reports, expert testimonies, and any material that was overlooked during the trial. By presenting a thorough and legally sound review, the lawyer aims to secure a stay of execution, a retrial, or complete acquittal, even in cases where the original judgment carried a severe sentence.
