SUsually first consultation is free. If the client comes and I were to just look at the papers and understand the case, it is not chargeable.
As soon as I start working that is when I am entitled to raise a bill.
However not all lawyers work this way.Secondly is this lawyer a senior lawyer with like 20-25 years experience? Then it would make sense to be charged for the first meeting.
But if the lawyer is also giving you advice and what to do, then it can be charged.SYou have to send a cease and desist notice to IG as well as the owner of the account. Then move the court for injunction and damages.SSo the bill was generated against?? You know you need a meter number or connection / consumer number. Something like that.
So you don’t have a meter. You don’t have a connection. You never paid the bill ever.You know what it sounds like, right? Electricity theft.
SPlease don’t. Tomorrow there is a hit and run with your cousin behind the wheel. You’re the one behind the bars.Don’t get into this shady deal at all. It’s not even 1% legally sound. Trust me I’m a lawyer.
SThen you can certainly ask the court for virtual appearance. Make an application under Section 151. If it’s a civil case. Court should grant leave.SYou’ll need to justify why you’re not able to come. Usually it’s because of serious illness or if witness is abroad.Otherwise witness needs to go to court.
SJust say that you will sue them for harassment of they don’t stop calling you.
Then you proceed to block their number.SPeople are here just to downvote without applying their mind because the non lawyers think they are more legally adept than lawyers.https://indiankanoon.org/doc/189839873/
Please refer to this case where 22 lakhs has been awarded as maintenance for college education.
