Anticipatory Bail Application

Protection from arrest, applied for before the Sessions Court.

About this service

If you fear arrest in an FIR or complaint, an application under Section 482 of the BNSS (formerly Section 438 CrPC) asks the Sessions Court for pre-arrest bail. Includes urgent drafting, filing and arguments at the first hearing in the Sessions Court. High Court applications are quoted separately. Court fee, stamp duty and government fees are extra, at actuals.
