Legal help for your situation
People arrive with a situation rather than a section of a statute — a notice on the doorstep, a cheque returned, a developer asking for a signature. These are the six that come up most often, and what usually matters first in each.
A legal notice sets a period to reply, commonly 15 or 30 days. Replying on the record matters, because a notice left unanswered is produced later as an admission. Read what is actually alleged, check whether the claim is within limitation, and reply in writing within the time given.
The reply is evidence. It is drafted as though it will be read in court, because it will be.
Notices and repliesNot sure where your matter fits?
Describe what has happened and you will be told which area it falls under, which office runs it, and what papers to bring.

Legal resources
Written explanations of the documents, approvals and timelines that decide ordinary property, society and litigation matters in Mumbai.
A property-documentation platform for Maharashtra — stamp duty and Ready Reckoner tools, leave and licence registration, deed drafting and property records, delivered through an app rather than across a desk.
Sharlex Law LLP is its legal partner. The platform handles the paperwork; where a matter needs an advocate — a defective title, a dispute, a conveyance the promoter will not execute — it comes to this firm.
Twelve deed types, district-wise ASR data.
End to end, with e-registration and receipt.
Property card and 7/12 extract lookups.
Standard instruments, reviewed before execution.
Property Kagaz LLP is a separate legal entity with its own partners, its own terms of service and its own fees. Services obtained through the platform are provided by that entity, not by this firm. Any legal engagement arising from them is undertaken by Sharlex Law LLP separately, under its own terms.
Local presence. Wider reach.
Four localities across Mumbai and Navi Mumbai, each close to the courts and authorities its matters go before.
Answers to common questions
Short answers on consultations, courts, timelines and fees. Nothing here is legal advice on your matter.
Call or send a message describing the matter and what has happened so far. You will be told which office to come to, what papers to bring and when a consultation can be held. Consultations run at the Kurla, Andheri and Vashi offices, or online.
Bring whatever exists in writing: agreements, notices received or sent, bank memos, society correspondence, police papers, and any court order already passed. A first consultation is far more useful with the actual documents than with a description of them.
Yes. Property, title, co-operative society and redevelopment matters are handled across all four localities, from the office nearest the court or authority the matter goes before — Kurla West, Andheri East or Vashi.
It depends on the forum. A Section 138 cheque bounce complaint commonly runs one to three years; a deemed conveyance application before the Deputy Registrar is measured in months; a contested civil suit takes longer. An estimate for your matter is given once the papers are seen.
Yes. The firm both advises — opinions, drafting, due diligence, notices, registration work — and appears in court. A good deal of work is finished at the advisory stage without a matter ever being filed.
Yes, and it is usually the better order. Advice before filing establishes whether a claim is within limitation, which forum has jurisdiction, what evidence exists and whether a notice may resolve the matter without proceedings.
Yes. Consultations can be held by video or telephone, with documents shared in advance. This is how most matters for clients outside Mumbai, and for non-resident Indians, are handled.
Fees depend on the forum, the stage and the work involved. They are discussed at the first consultation and confirmed in writing before any work begins, so nothing is billed that was not agreed.
Matters before the Bombay High Court and courts and authorities across Maharashtra are handled, including Thane and Navi Mumbai. For a forum elsewhere, you will be told plainly if the matter is better placed with someone local to it.
Send a short description of the matter through the consultation form or on WhatsApp. You will get a written acknowledgement setting out the papers to keep ready and the next available consultation slot.

Describe the matter and you will be told which office it belongs to and what papers to bring.
