Ahmedabad, Gujarat · Criminal Defence Lawyer
Ahmedabad's criminal matters are handled at the City Civil & Sessions Court at Bhadra, Metropolitan Magistrate Courts at Gheekanta and Mirzapur, and the Gujarat High Court (at Sola, Ahmedabad). NyaySevak's Ahmedabad criminal lawyers handle bail, quashing, trial defence, economic-offence matters, and specialist PMLA/CBI representation across the Ahmedabad complex.
Quick Answer
Ahmedabad is Gujarat's largest criminal-court jurisdiction. Sessions-triable offences go to the City Civil & Sessions Court at Bhadra. Magistrate matters are at Gheekanta (Chief Metropolitan Magistrate) and other divisional Magistrate courts. Gandhinagar has its own sessions court. Special courts for POCSO, NDPS, CBI, and PMLA operate at Ahmedabad.
Gujarat High Court is located at Sola, Ahmedabad, serving the entire state. Its bail and quashing practice is quick — same-week hearings are common. The HC has issued important rulings on criminal-procedure fairness and has been active in monitoring police accountability.
Gujarat's specific statutes — Gujarat Prohibition Act (prohibiting alcohol) — generate distinct criminal-defence practice. Economic offences and fraud are also heavy given Ahmedabad's trading and diamond-industry background.
