KV Law is the practice of an Advocate-on-Record at the Supreme Court of India, based in New Delhi. The practice is focused on criminal law, constitutional matters, commercial litigation, and proceedings under special statutes before the Supreme Court of India, the High Courts of Delhi, Patna, and other forums across the country.
The practice is led by an advocate who has been enrolled with the Bar Council of India and designated as an Advocate-on-Record (AoR) by the Supreme Court of India. An Advocate-on-Record is authorised to file and conduct cases directly before the Supreme Court, a qualification held by a limited number of advocates in the country. This designation ensures that matters are handled with the procedural rigour and substantive depth that the highest court demands.
Practice Areas – Supreme Court of India and High Courts
The practice encompasses a wide range of matters that arise before the Supreme Court of India and the High Courts. These include matters involving criminal defence, bail applications, appeals against conviction, quashing of FIRs, and proceedings under special statutes such as the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA), cases investigated by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) and the Enforcement Directorate (ED), and matters under the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act (NDPS).

Special Leave Petitions (SLPs) and Supreme Court Appeals
Filing and arguing Special Leave Petitions under Article 136 of the Constitution is a core part of the practice.
