Representation before sectoral regulators and statutory tribunals, and challenges to regulatory orders.
Regulatory decisions rarely arrive as a single order. They come as a show-cause notice, a hearing, an order, and then a penalty — and the reply given at the show-cause stage constrains every argument available afterwards.
We appear before sectoral regulators and statutory tribunals, and challenge their orders in appeal and by writ. The work covers show-cause and enforcement proceedings, licensing and registration, penalty and compounding, and appeals to the tribunal that sits above each regulator.
The regulator is usually better resourced and always more familiar with its own record. The compensating advantage is procedural: powers exercised beyond the statute, findings reached without evidence, and orders passed without reasons are all challengeable, and they are present more often than not.
