Sravya Mehta

Profile description

If you or a loved one has been detained and believe that the detention is unlawful, a Habeas Corpus petition can challenge the legality of the custody. When the matter involves sexual offence allegations, the stakes are especially high, and a skilled lawyer can also work to suspend a sentence pending appeal. Sravya Mehta offers comprehensive representation in these complex areas, appearing before the Punjab and Haryana High Court and, when necessary, the Supreme Court of India.

Sravya Mehta brings over fifteen years of criminal defence experience, with a particular focus on protecting individual liberty. The lawyer regularly assists clients by filing Habeas Corpus petitions that question whether the authorities have overstepped their powers. By presenting a clear factual matrix and citing relevant constitutional rights, the lawyer can persuade the High Court to order an immediate release or review of the detention.

In cases of sexual offence defence, Sravya Mehta combines meticulous fact‑finding with a strategic defence narrative. The lawyer examines the evidence, challenges the credibility of the prosecution’s witnesses, and leverages case law to create reasonable doubt. The lawyer’s experience in handling sensitive allegations ensures that the client’s dignity is preserved while a robust defence is mounted.

When a conviction has already been secured, Sravya Mehta can seek suspension of the sentence pending appeal. This involves filing a petition that demonstrates a strong likelihood of success on appeal, potential miscarriage of justice, or irreparable harm if the sentence is executed immediately. The lawyer’s ability to argue convincingly before both the Punjab and Haryana High Court and the Supreme Court of India often results in orders that stay the execution of the sentence while the appeal is heard.

Clients appreciate Sravya Mehta’s clear communication throughout the process. The lawyer explains each procedural step, from filing the Habeas Corpus petition to preparing for a sexual offence defence trial, and outlines the criteria for obtaining a suspension of sentence. Successful outcomes include High Court orders granting bail in unlawful detention cases, acquittals in sexual offence trials, and Supreme Court stays that preserve the client’s freedom pending appeal. By working with a lawyer who has a proven record across these critical practice areas, you gain a strategic partner committed to defending your rights at every level of the judiciary.
