Priyanka Sethi

Profile description

When a conviction under the NDPS Act appears unjust, the last resort may be to file a Special Leave Petition (SLP) that asks a higher court to review the decision. Priyanka Sethi specialises in guiding clients through this demanding process, ensuring that every possible ground for relief is presented before the Punjab and Haryana High Court and, if necessary, the Supreme Court of India.

Priyanka Sethi brings more than twelve years of experience handling NDPS appeals at the High Court level. The lawyer regularly assists clients in drafting meticulous petitions that highlight errors of law, procedural lapses, and wrongful interpretations of evidence. By structuring arguments around constitutional guarantees, statutory ambiguities, and precedents, the lawyer maximises the chance that the High Court will grant special leave and set the stage for a more detailed review.

When the High Court declines to grant leave, Priyanka Sethi does not abandon the case. The lawyer has a proven track record of filing successful SLPs before the Supreme Court of India, where the stakes are even higher and the scrutiny more rigorous. The lawyer’s approach includes obtaining certified copies of the High Court judgment, preparing a concise memorandum of points, and presenting a compelling narrative that demonstrates a substantial miscarriage of justice. In several recent matters, the Supreme Court has entertained the petition, leading to remand, reversal of conviction, or modification of the sentence.

The lawyer’s methodology blends strategic legal research with an acute awareness of procedural timelines. Priyanka Sethi explains each step in plain language, outlines realistic expectations, and prepares the client for possible outcomes ranging from interim relief to full acquittal. The lawyer routinely coordinates with forensic experts, senior counsel, and senior advocates to strengthen the petition’s factual and legal foundation.
