Pratap Mahato regularly assists clients who contend that a bail order was granted on an incomplete or erroneous factual basis. The lawyer conducts a comprehensive audit of the trial court’s judgment, pinpoints procedural oversights, and prepares a focused Special Leave Petition that underscores why the Supreme Court should intervene. By framing the argument around the client’s right to liberty and the potential miscarriage of justice, the lawyer can persuade the bench to stay or set aside the bail, providing immediate relief.
