Lawyer in Delhi & New Delhi — Advocate Manish Sharma, Jangpura Extension Office

Last updated: 1 October 2026 · Reflects the BNS/BNSS, 2023 · By Advocate Manish Sharma · General legal information, not legal advice

In short: Advocate Manish Sharma attends Delhi matters from the New Delhi office at 1-5, 4th Floor, Jangpura Extension, New Delhi 110014, appearing before the seven Delhi district court complexes and the Delhi High Court. Which complex hears a case depends on the police station or the district where the cause of action arose.

This page maps legal work in Delhi: the seven district court complexes and what each hears, how Delhi's districts and neighbourhoods map onto them, the Delhi High Court, how to verify any advocate, consultations at the Jangpura Extension office, and free legal aid. Each section links to the chamber's detailed Delhi guide.

Lawyers in Delhi — enrolment and the right to appear

Every lawyer appearing in a Delhi court is an advocate enrolled under the Advocates Act, 1961 — Delhi-based advocates on the roll of the Bar Council of Delhi, others on the roll of their own State Bar Council. Under Section 30 of the Act, any enrolled advocate may practise before every court in India, so an advocate enrolled in Haryana appears in the Delhi district courts and the Delhi High Court on the same footing.

Four terms in Delhi searches need decoding. An "attorney" is not an Indian enrolment category — the word usually refers to a power-of-attorney holder, who cannot argue a case. A "legal consultant" who is not enrolled cannot appear in court at all. A "Senior Advocate" is an advocate designated by the Delhi High Court or the Supreme Court under Section 16 of the Act — a formal title, not a description of age. A district court complex is one of the seven campuses where Delhi's district judiciary sits, each serving particular revenue districts. Rule 36 of the Bar Council of India Rules forbids every advocate, in Delhi as elsewhere, from claiming to be the "best", "top" or "No. 1".

Which Delhi court complex hears your case?

Delhi's district judiciary sits in seven complexes. For most criminal matters the police station on the FIR decides the complex. For civil matters it is the cause of action — the set of facts that gives a person the right to sue — or the defendant's residence that decides the district.

Complex	Districts served · notable courts
Tis Hazari	Central and West Delhi — the oldest complex; large civil and matrimonial rosters, MACT
Saket	South and South-East Delhi — NDPS and POCSO special courts
Patiala House	New Delhi district — some CBI and NDPS matters, MACT
Karkardooma	East, North-East and Shahdara — labour courts and industrial tribunals, MACT
Rohini	North and North-West Delhi — POCSO courts, heavy criminal roster
Dwarka	South-West Delhi — family courts, civil and criminal
Rouse Avenue	Special jurisdiction — CBI, ED/PMLA special courts and cases against legislators

Police-station boundaries are redrawn from time to time, so the official district-courts portal's jurisdiction list for the police station is the final check. The complex-by-complex detail is on the Delhi district courts guide.

Hauz Khas, Malviya Nagar, Mehrauli, Saket	South Delhi · Saket
Karol Bagh, Daryaganj, Paharganj	Central Delhi · Tis Hazari

These are the ordinary mappings; the police station and the official jurisdiction list decide every individual case.

Delhi High Court — appeals, quashing and bail

The High Court of Delhi hears appeals and revisions from the district courts, petitions to quash FIRs under Section 528 BNSS, bail after rejection by the Sessions Court, and writ petitions. A Faridabad or Gurugram FIR, by contrast, is quashed by the Punjab & Haryana High Court — the court follows the State of the FIR, not the residence of the accused. See the Delhi High Court guide, FIR quashing and Delhi or Haryana — which court?.

Matters handled in Delhi

Criminal and bail: anticipatory and regular bail, bail cancellation, cyber offences and sexual-offence cases — criminal matters in Delhi courts.
Matrimonial: mutual and contested divorce, maintenance, custody, Section 85 BNS (498A) and dowry matters — matrimonial matters in Delhi courts.
Economic offences: cheating, fraud, ED and CBI matters at Rouse Avenue — white-collar defence.
Cross-border NCR matters: a case in Delhi with the family in Faridabad, or the reverse — NCR jurisdiction; Faridabad matters are covered on the lawyer in Faridabad page.

How to find and verify a lawyer in Delhi

Ask for the enrolment number and the State Bar Council of enrolment.
Check court presence on the eCourts portal for the Delhi complex that will hear your matter.
Match the work to the forum — a Saket NDPS bail, a Tis Hazari family petition and a Delhi High Court quashing petition are different kinds of work.
Get the terms in writing, stage by stage.
Ask about weaknesses — candour about risk is the signal no listing shows.

Consultations at the Jangpura Extension office

The New Delhi office is at 1-5, 4th Floor, Jangpura Extension, New Delhi 110014.

Free legal aid in Delhi

The Delhi State Legal Services Authority and the District Legal Services Authorities at the court complexes provide free legal services, including an advocate, to persons eligible under Section 12 of the Legal Services Authorities Act, 1987 — women and children, members of Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes, persons in custody, industrial workmen, persons with disability and those below the notified income limit. Lok Adalats settle compoundable and pre-litigation disputes without court fee.

Frequently asked questions

Who is the best lawyer in Delhi?

Yes. Section 30 of the Advocates Act, 1961 entitles every enrolled advocate to practise in all courts in India, including the Delhi district courts and the Delhi High Court.

Areas in the South-East district ordinarily go to the Saket complex, but the police station named in the FIR, or the place where the cause of action arose in a civil case, is what decides. The official district-courts jurisdiction list for that police station is the final check.
