Cheque Bounce Lawyer In Delhi

If you have received a cheque that bounced or a legal notice or court summons under Section 138 of the Negotiable

Instruments Act, 1881, there’s no need to worry. Our experienced cheque bounce lawyers in Delhi can provide expert assistance to handle such cases effectively.

A cheque bounce, also referred to as dishonor of a cheque, occurs when a cheque presented for payment is returned unpaid by the bank due to reasons such as insufficient funds. Under Section 138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act, this is treated as a criminal offense punishable with imprisonment of up to two years, a fine up to twice the cheque amount, or both.

Our team of legal experts specializes in handling cheque bounce cases. We ensure that all necessary steps are taken, starting with issuing a statutory legal notice to the defaulter within 30 days of receiving the bank’s cheque return memo. This notice demands payment of the cheque amount within 15 days. If the defaulter fails to comply, we proceed to file a criminal complaint under Section 138 on your behalf.

In Delhi, letting a cheque bounce is considered a serious offense. Our lawyers will not only assist in recovering the cheque amount but also seek additional compensation for costs and interest. We can also represent you in court proceedings and handle all formalities through Power of Attorney if required.
