Question 1

How does an online legal consultation with APS Law work?

Accepted Answer

You can reach us by phone, WhatsApp, email or the contact form. We understand your matter, suggest the right advocate from our team and schedule a chat, phone or video consultation. After the call you receive a clear next-step plan, fee estimate and document checklist.

Question 2

Can I consult a lawyer anonymously online?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Initial discussions on sensitive matters — matrimonial, criminal, cyber, harassment — can be held anonymously. Your identity is only required when you decide to send a formal legal notice, file a case or instruct us to appear in court.

Question 3

How quickly can I receive legal advice?

Accepted Answer

Urgent matters (anticipatory bail, cyber complaints, time-bound notices) are usually answered within a few hours. Scheduled consultations are confirmed the same day or within 24 hours. Detailed document review takes 24–48 hours.

Question 4

Is my personal information kept confidential?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. Lawyer–client communication is protected by privilege under the Indian Evidence Act and the Advocates Act. Documents are stored securely and never shared with third parties without your written consent.

Question 5

Can I take a second opinion on my matter?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We encourage clients to compare strategy, experience and fees before engaging a lawyer. A second opinion often strengthens your understanding of the case and the way forward.

Question 6

What types of legal issues do you handle?

Accepted Answer

Civil and commercial disputes, criminal defence, anticipatory bail, cyber crime, ITAT and income tax appeals, divorce and matrimonial, property and RERA matters, cheque bounce, DRT/SARFAESI, corporate compliance, employment, wills and succession.

Question 7

Are online consultations legally valid?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Advice given by an enrolled advocate over phone or video is fully valid. Where formal action is needed (filing, affidavits, court appearances), we follow the procedure prescribed by the relevant court or tribunal.

Question 8

How are the lawyers at APS Law qualified?

Accepted Answer

Both founding advocates are enrolled with the Bar Council of Maharashtra and Goa and regularly practise before the Bombay High Court, Sessions Courts and tribunals across the Mumbai Metropolitan Region.

Question 9

Is online consultation more affordable than a court visit?

Accepted Answer

Generally yes. Online consultations save travel time and cost, and are ideal for initial advice, document review and routine follow-ups. Litigation in court still requires physical appearances, which we coordinate from our Crawford Market and Mira Road offices.

Question 10

Can I continue with the same lawyer after the consultation?

Accepted Answer

Of course. If you are comfortable with the advocate who advises you initially, you can engage the same lawyer for drafting, notices, case filing, court representation and end-to-end matter management.

Question 11

Which courts and forums do you appear before?

Accepted Answer

Bombay High Court, City Civil & Sessions Court (Dindoshi and Fort), Magistrate Courts across Mumbai and Thane, ITAT Mumbai bench, DRT, NCLT, Consumer Commissions, RERA Authority and Cyber Crime cells.

Question 12

Do you offer fixed-fee packages?

Accepted Answer

Yes — for legal notices, document review, vetting of agreements, mutual-consent divorce and routine drafting. Litigation and complex matters are quoted stage-wise after the first consultation.
