Frequently Asked Questions
A civil lawyer in Delhi handles property disputes, recovery of money suits, injunctions to stop illegal construction or encroachment, partition suits among family members, title declaration cases, contracts, specific performance suits, and civil appeals. Civil cases are heard by Civil Judge Courts and District Courts.
Civil cases in Delhi courts can take anywhere from 2–7 years depending on complexity, number of witnesses and court workload. However, through interim injunctions, a civil lawyer can provide immediate temporary relief within a few hearings.
An injunction is a court order restraining a party from doing a specific act (prohibitory injunction) or directing them to perform an act (mandatory injunction). In property disputes, an interim injunction prevents the other party from selling, transferring or constructing on disputed property until the case is decided.
For a property civil suit you typically need: sale deed / title documents, property tax receipts, mutation records, any registered agreements, photographs of the property, previous court orders (if any) and identity proof. Our team will advise you on the exact documents needed for your specific case.
