Falguni Sen focuses exclusively on serious crime appeals, guiding clients through the intricate process of challenging convictions and sentences at both the High Court and the nation’s apex court. The lawyer combines extensive appellate experience with a deep understanding of criminal jurisprudence to maximize the chances of a favorable reversal.

Falguni completed an undergraduate law program with distinction and went on to earn a Master of Laws in Criminal Law. Early career years were spent as an assistant to a senior appellate lawyer, where the lawyer observed the mechanics of High Court and Supreme Court appeals.

An appeal in the Punjab and Haryana High Court involves a careful review of trial‑court records, identification of legal errors, and the articulation of compelling grounds for reversal.

By submitting well‑structured appellate briefs and delivering persuasive oral arguments, the lawyer has secured relief in many high‑stakes cases. When the matter progresses to the Supreme Court, Falguni prepares Special Leave Petitions that focus on substantial questions of law, constitutional breaches, or glaring miscarriages of justice.

The lawyer’s approach begins with a comprehensive case audit, reviewing trial transcripts, forensic reports, and sentencing records. Falguni then formulates a strategy that may involve challenging the admissibility of key evidence, arguing for a misinterpretation of statutory provisions, or highlighting inconsistencies in witness testimonies. The lawyer prepares detailed written submissions, supported by contemporary case law, and rehearses oral arguments to anticipate the bench’s line of questioning. Throughout the appeal, Falguni keeps the client informed about filing deadlines, hearing dates, and possible outcomes, ensuring transparency and realistic expectations.

What differentiates Falguni is a blend of scholarly rigor and practical courtroom acumen. The lawyer frequently contributes to criminal law journals and leads workshops on appellate advocacy, staying abreast of evolving Supreme Court jurisprudence.
