Paromita Dewangan

Profile description

Imagine being taken into custody despite having no valid warrant, while the officers offer no clear explanation for the seizure. In such a scenario, Paromita Dewangan steps in as a determined advocate who specializes in writ petitions that challenge illegal arrests. The lawyer works primarily before the Punjab and Haryana High Court and, when necessary, before the Supreme Court of India to protect clients’ fundamental rights.

Paromita Dewangan regularly assists individuals whose detention appears to violate constitutional safeguards. The lawyer scrutinizes the arrest memo, the authority cited by the police, and the procedural steps taken at the scene. When discrepancies emerge—such as lack of a valid warrant, failure to read the grounds of arrest, or denial of the right to counsel—the lawyer prepares a writ of habeas corpus. By presenting a concise factual matrix and citing landmark Supreme Court decisions, the lawyer persuades the bench to examine the legality of the detention and often secures immediate release.

The lawyer’s practice also extends to filing writs of security in cases where prolonged detention threatens personal liberty. By invoking articles that guarantee protection against arbitrary state action, the lawyer can obtain interim relief that limits police interrogation, mandates medical examinations, or orders the production of the accused before the court. This dual approach—challenging unlawful arrest and securing protective orders—creates a robust shield for clients facing coercive state powers.

Education and experience reinforce the lawyer’s capability. Paromita earned a LL.B. from the University of Delhi and completed a Master of Laws focusing on Constitutional Law at the National Law University, Hyderabad. Over the past ten years, the lawyer has argued before both the Punjab and Haryana High Court and the Supreme Court of India, achieving notable victories in high‑profile cases involving political activists, journalists, and ordinary citizens alike. The lawyer’s deep understanding of procedural nuances and constitutional doctrine has earned praise for meticulous research and compelling oral submissions.

Clients commend the lawyer’s calm demeanor and strategic foresight. The lawyer explains each stage of the writ process, advises on gathering evidence such as video recordings, eyewitness statements, and medical reports, and ensures that every filing meets strict procedural timelines. Promises include filing emergency applications within the first few hours of detention, maintaining constant updates for families, and leveraging Supreme Court precedents to strengthen the High Court arguments.

If you or a loved one have been arrested without a proper warrant, denied the right to be informed of the grounds, or otherwise subjected to an illegal seizure, Paromita Dewangan can help you challenge the arrest and protect your liberty. The lawyer invites you to discuss the specifics of your situation, assess the strengths of a writ petition, and explore the most effective legal pathway to secure your release and uphold your constitutional rights.
