Court
Delhi
Matters pending before courts in Delhi are conducted where a case requires it — most often where an FIR has been registered in Delhi, where a party resides or works there, or where a matter arising elsewhere has been transferred. There is no chamber in Delhi; the advocate travels for hearings, and whether a Delhi matter can be taken up is discussed case by case.
Matters conducted in Delhi
Representation before courts in Delhi is undertaken where a matter genuinely requires it — commonly criminal matters where the FIR was registered in Delhi, or where a client from the Bareilly region faces proceedings there.
Being clear about the position
There is no chamber in Delhi. The only chamber is at Chamber Number 4A, Civil Court, Bareilly. Delhi matters are prepared at Bareilly and the advocate travels for hearings.
Where a client from Bareilly or the surrounding districts faces proceedings in Delhi, having one chamber conduct both sides of the matter keeps the papers, the instructions and the strategy consistent across both courts. Appearances are arranged around the listing schedule, and you are told in advance which dates require your own attendance.
