TERMS OF USE & DISCLAIMER

1. Nature of the Services

Prosolicitors is a legal coordination practice. We are instructed by businesses in banking, cybercrime and regulatory matters arising anywhere in India. Our work consists in construing the notice, requisition or restraint received, assembling and settling the material to be tendered in answer to it, instructing counsel practising in the jurisdiction concerned, and reporting in writing to the client entity at each stage.

Where a proceeding requires appearance, pleadings, the execution of a vakalatnama or representation before a court, a tribunal, an investigating agency or any other authority, that work is carried out exclusively by independent advocates enrolled with the State Bar Councils and practising in the relevant territorial jurisdiction. The conduct of the proceeding, and the professional judgement exercised in it, are those of the advocate so instructed.

2. Professional Conduct and the Absence of Any Assurance as to Outcome

Instructions are accepted on the following footing, which is not open to variation:

• No assurance as to outcome or time. No representation is made, and none should be understood, as to the release of an account, the lifting of a lien, the release of seized property, the closure or quashing of a proceeding, or the time within which any step may be concluded. Such matters rest upon the facts, upon the material placed on the record, and upon the discretion of the court or authority seised of them.
• No claim of influence. Every step is taken through lawful, formal and documented channels, and every representation is tendered on the record against written acknowledgement. We do not claim, and do not exercise, influence over any police officer, judicial officer or public servant. No instruction will be accepted which requires anything to be done otherwise than according to law, or which would have the effect of evading a restraint validly imposed by a competent authority or of concealing the proceeds of an offence.
• No misleading description of the work. The practice areas described on this website record the procedural steps we are ordinarily instructed to take. They are descriptions of process, and are not to be read as descriptions of results obtained or as results that may be expected.

3. Obligations of the Client Entity

A client entity instructing us undertakes:

• To give full, true and timely instructions, and to produce the complete record — every notice, requisition and intimation received, the underlying ledgers, transaction records and KYC material — including any part of it which is unfavourable to the client entity.
• Not to tender, or require the tendering of, any document which is forged, altered, fabricated or otherwise misleading. Instructions to that effect will not be acted upon, and the engagement will be brought to an end.
• To execute the vakalatnama, authorisation or board resolution required for a filing when it is called for, and to procure the attendance of its authorised representative where attendance is required by law or directed by the authority.

4. Governing Law and Jurisdiction

These terms, and every engagement entered into upon them, are governed by and shall be construed in accordance with the laws of India. Subject to any arbitration or other dispute resolution clause agreed in the terms of engagement, the courts at New Delhi shall have exclusive jurisdiction in respect of any dispute arising out of or in connection with these terms.

5. Correspondence

Formal legal notices, questions of compliance and proposed terms of engagement may be addressed to the desk on its Telegram channel (@PROSOLICITORS), which is the channel on which correspondence is received. Correspondence is acknowledged as received; it does not constitute legal advice, and it does not by itself create an engagement.
