District, State & National Consumer Commissions
Consumer protection proceedings relate to disputes under the consumer protection framework and may involve issues concerning defective goods, deficiency in services, unfair trade practices, and allied consumer remedies, subject to maintainability, limitation, and forum jurisdiction. Professional work under this head may relate to proceedings before the District, State, and National Consumer Disputes Redressal Commissions, as applicable, and may be undertaken for complainants as well as opposite parties/service providers.
Work typically includes assessment of the factual and documentary record; drafting and filing of complaints/replies, rejoinders and applications; preparation of evidence by affidavit and supporting documents; and representation during hearings, including written submissions and oral arguments. Where legally permissible and appropriate, settlement mechanisms may be explored and documented through due process. Where orders require compliance or enforcement, execution proceedings and ancillary steps may be undertaken in accordance with the applicable procedure.
