Legal matters often require more than an understanding of legal provisions. They require careful assessment of facts, proper documentation, procedural knowledge and a clear understanding of the legal remedies available. At Legal Basta, the legal team approaches each matter by considering its individual circumstances, the applicable law and the practical requirements of the client.
Legal Basta is a law firm founded by Advocate Madhvi Sharma. The team includes advocates and professionals associated with different areas of legal practice and forensic expertise. Its work covers civil disputes, criminal matters, matrimonial issues, corporate and commercial matters, matters concerning women and children, and legal issues involving forensic evidence. The nature of assistance depends on the facts of the matter, the professional responsible for the engagement and the scope of services agreed upon.
The purpose of the Legal Basta team is to provide structured legal assistance, explain relevant legal procedures and help clients understand the options available to them. Every legal matter is different, and the appropriate approach must be based on its documents, evidence, legal issues and procedural stage.
The Legal Basta team comprises legal professionals with experience and interests across different areas of law and forensic science. The team structure brings together legal practice and specialist knowledge so that matters involving litigation, documentation, investigation-related issues and technical evidence can be considered from the appropriate professional perspective.
The team profiles below introduce the professionals currently identified on the Legal Basta website. Their roles and areas of involvement should be understood according to their respective qualifications, professional status and current responsibilities.
Advocate Madhvi Sharma is the Founder of Legal Basta (Law Firm) and has successfully represented numerous clients in Civil, Matrimonial, Criminal, CAT, and National Green Tribunal (NGT) matters before the District Courts, High Courts, and the Supreme Court of India. She has an outstanding track record of handling complex legal disputes and is actively committed to creating awareness among women and children about their legal rights.
She is a practicing advocate in Delhi, holds a Master’s Degree in Law from Kurukshetra University, and is currently pursuing a Ph.D. in Criminal Law.
Advocate Madhvi Sharma has also provided legal assistance to the Delhi Minorities Commission (DMC) and conducted training sessions for DANICS officers. She has served as the Presiding Officer of the Sexual Harassment Committee at DMC and worked as a Legal Consultant with Amazon Seller Services India.
In addition to her legal practice, she possesses professional expertise in Forensic Science, assists in the investigation of cyber fraud cases, conducts Forensic Science training programs, and serves as the Head of the Forensic Science Department at Lloyd Law College.
A legal matter should begin with an understanding of the actual dispute, the client’s objectives and the documents available. The Legal Basta team considers the nature of the issue and the legal framework that may apply before identifying the appropriate course of action.
The initial assessment may involve reviewing notices, agreements, pleadings, court orders, communications, reports and other relevant records. Depending on the matter, legal research and procedural assessment may also be required. The purpose is to identify the legal questions that need attention and explain the available options in a clear and structured manner.
Where a matter involves scientific or technical evidence, the legal issues may need to be considered alongside an appropriate expert assessment. The legal and technical aspects should remain distinct, and each professional should work within their qualifications and area of competence.
Legal Basta’s published practice areas include civil law, criminal law, matrimonial law, corporate law and matters involving the protection of women and children. The firm’s published information also refers to work involving tribunals, forensic science and workplace-related awareness and compliance matters.
Civil disputes may involve property, contracts, recovery, documentation and other private legal rights. Criminal matters may require consideration of allegations, investigation records, procedural safeguards, bail-related issues and trial proceedings. Matrimonial matters may involve divorce, maintenance, child custody and other family-related disputes.
Corporate and commercial legal issues may concern business arrangements, contractual obligations, regulatory matters and disputes between organisations or individuals. Matters involving women and children may require particular sensitivity, confidentiality and attention to the applicable statutory protections.
The precise services available in a particular matter should be confirmed directly with Legal Basta. Representation before a court or tribunal is subject to the professional engagement, the advocate’s role and the applicable procedural requirements.
Legal preparation involves understanding the facts, identifying the relevant legal provisions and reviewing the documents that support or affect a case. The quality of preparation may influence how clearly the issues are presented and how effectively the matter can be addressed during the legal process.
Depending on the engagement, legal work may involve reviewing agreements, notices, complaints, pleadings, affidavits, evidence records and other relevant documents. It may also involve identifying missing information, understanding procedural requirements and preparing legal submissions or other documents where appropriate.
Legal Basta approaches documentation and case preparation with attention to the facts and the legal issues involved. The nature and extent of work undertaken in each matter depend on the agreed scope of professional services.
Some legal matters involve evidence that requires scientific or technical examination. A dispute concerning a signature, a questioned document, a digital communication, a photograph or a recording may raise questions that cannot be answered through legal interpretation alone.
Forensic examination may help address a specific technical question, while legal analysis considers how the findings relate to the dispute and the applicable law of evidence. The two processes should not be confused. An expert’s technical opinion does not automatically determine the legal outcome of a case.
Legal Basta’s published team information includes forensic expertise alongside legal practice. Where forensic evidence is relevant, the appropriate professional involvement must be determined by the nature of the material, the required examination and the qualifications of the person undertaking it.
Legal proceedings involve procedural requirements that may differ according to the nature of the case and the court or tribunal concerned. Preparing a matter may require review of the relevant documents, identification of the legal issues, consideration of applicable deadlines and an understanding of the relief or remedy being sought.
Legal Basta’s published information refers to work involving District Courts, High Courts, the Supreme Court of India and tribunals, including CAT and the National Green Tribunal. The availability of representation in a particular forum depends on the case, the advocate engaged and the applicable professional and procedural requirements.
A person seeking legal assistance should provide accurate information about the matter, including any notices, orders, filing dates or pending deadlines. This allows the legal issues and possible next steps to be considered on the basis of the actual record.
Legal work requires appropriate professional conduct, careful communication and responsible handling of information. Clients may need to share personal, financial, business or other confidential documents when seeking legal guidance. Such information should be provided through suitable channels and handled in accordance with applicable professional and legal obligations.
The legal team should explain the scope of the engagement, the work proposed, relevant fees and any important limitations before proceeding. Clients should also be informed when a matter requires the involvement of a specialist or a professional outside the scope of the existing engagement.
Legal Basta recognises that clear communication is an important part of legal assistance. The advice and representation appropriate to a matter depend on the facts, the applicable law and the professional engagement accepted.
Legal Basta is based in New Delhi and its published practice information covers legal matters across different courts and forums. People seeking legal guidance in Delhi NCR may approach the firm with matters involving civil disputes, criminal law, matrimonial issues, corporate matters and other areas within its stated practice.
The legal requirements of a case may depend on jurisdiction, the location of the events, the parties involved and the applicable statute. A matter connected with Delhi, Noida, Ghaziabad or Gurgaon should therefore be assessed on its own facts rather than on location alone.
The Legal Basta team aims to provide a professional point of contact for understanding legal issues, reviewing relevant records and identifying the appropriate legal process, subject to the nature of the engagement.
Legal matters require careful consideration of the facts, applicable law, documents and procedural requirements. The Legal Basta team brings together advocates and professional expertise across different areas of legal practice, with forensic science forming part of the firm’s published professional background.
Whether a matter involves a civil dispute, criminal proceedings, matrimonial issues, corporate concerns or forensic evidence, the appropriate approach must be determined by the specific legal questions and the scope of professional assistance required.
