Services - Negotiable Instruments Disputes

At Lex Digital Law Offices, we offer focused legal expertise in handling disputes arising from negotiable instruments — particularly those involving dishonour of cheques under the Negotiable Instruments Act, 1881. In commercial transactions where trust and timeliness are paramount, the dishonour of negotiable instruments can disrupt business continuity and erode financial confidence. Our dedicated team ensures swift, strategic, and result-oriented legal intervention in such matters.

We represent a broad spectrum of clients — including corporates, financial institutions, small businesses, and individuals — in disputes concerning:

  • Dishonour of cheques (Section 138 matters)
  • Stop payment instructions and insufficiency of funds
  • Forgery, alteration, or fraudulent use of negotiable instruments
  • Defence and prosecution in cheque bounce cases
  • Loan recovery proceedings tied to negotiable instruments
  • Criminal complaints and parallel civil remedies for recovery
  • Drafting and responding to statutory demand notices under Section 138
  • Quashing of proceedings and defending against misuse of process

Our approach is both proactive and tactical — we act swiftly to preserve your rights and initiate or defend claims within the strict procedural timelines the law mandates. We handle every stage of the process, from sending legal notices and filing complaints to securing judgments and enforcing recoveries.

With experience across multiple jurisdictions and courts, including Metropolitan Magistrate Courts, Sessions Courts, and High Courts, our team is well-versed in ensuring that your financial interests are protected with the highest level of diligence and professionalism.

Whether you're seeking to enforce payment or defend against unjust accusations, Lex Digital Law Offices is your trusted legal partner for achieving effective resolutions in negotiable instruments disputes.
