When a murder charge is filed, Dhanashree Malik begins by analysing the charge sheet, forensic reports, and witness statements. The lawyer can help you understand how intent, pre‑meditation, and circumstance are evaluated by the courts.

Sexual offence defence demands sensitivity and rigorous legal scrutiny.

By preparing thorough cross‑examinations and challenging improperly obtained evidence, the lawyer strives to protect the client’s rights and reputation.

Habeas corpus petitions are a vital tool when unlawful detention occurs. Dhanashree Malik regularly assists clients in filing such petitions before the Punjab and Haryana High Court or, when necessary, before the Supreme Court of India.

Dhanashree Malik regularly helps clients navigate pre‑trial bail hearings, trial proceedings, and post‑conviction relief applications.
