Manpreet Kisku

Profile description

Imagine being arrested on suspicion of a narcotics offense or facing a breach‑of‑trust charge that threatens your career and freedom. Manpreet Kisku understands the urgency of such situations and offers a defence that works both in the Punjab and Haryana High Court and before the Supreme Court of India.

Manpreet Kisku regularly assists clients accused under the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances (NDPS) Act. The lawyer knows the high stakes involved, from the possibility of severe imprisonment to the social stigma attached to drug‑related charges. By analysing the seizure report, the chain‑of‑custody, and the laboratory testing procedures, the lawyer can identify flaws that often lead to the dismissal of the case. In many instances, the lawyer has secured acquittals by proving that the seized substance was not properly identified or that the investigation violated procedural safeguards.

The other pillar of the practice is defence against criminal breach of trust. When a client is accused of misappropriating assets or breaking a fiduciary duty, Manpreet Kisku crafts a narrative that distinguishes honest mistakes from intentional deceit. The lawyer investigates the contractual terms, reviews financial ledgers, and interviews witnesses to demonstrate that the alleged breach lacks the mens rea required for criminal liability. Successful outcomes include reduced charges, negotiated settlements, and, where the evidence is weak, complete acquittal.

Both practice areas demand a deep familiarity with procedural law and a strategic mind for higher‑court advocacy. Manpreet Kisku brings over fifteen years of experience arguing before the Punjab and Haryana High Court and the Supreme Court of India. The lawyer has filed numerous bail applications, writ petitions, and special leave petitions that have set precedents in how NDPS and breach‑of‑trust cases are evaluated. This dual‑court exposure enables the lawyer to anticipate how a High Court decision might be appealed before the nation’s apex court.

The lawyer’s preparation is meticulous. Manpret Kisku works with forensic experts, financial analysts, and private investigators to build a defence that is both factually solid and legally persuasive. The lawyer also advises clients on how to interact with law enforcement, ensuring that any statements made do not inadvertently strengthen the prosecution’s case. By guiding clients through the investigative stage, the lawyer often prevents the escalation of charges.

Clients praise the lawyer’s clear communication style. Manpreet Kisku breaks down complex statutory provisions of the NDPS Act and the Indian Penal Code into understandable language, allowing clients to make informed choices about plea bargaining, trial, or settlement. The lawyer’s presence in the courtroom is steady and composed, qualities that inspire confidence in judges and juries alike.

Whether the dispute is a narcotics charge that could lead to years of imprisonment or a breach‑of‑trust allegation that jeopardises professional licensure, Manpreet Kisku combines courtroom skill, investigative rigor, and a client‑first philosophy to protect liberty and reputation in the Punjab and Haryana High Court and before the Supreme Court of India.
