Can I hire an out-of-city lawyer in Delhi?

Is there any restriction on hiring a lawyer from another city for my case in Delhi? Can I hire a family friend who is a lawyer from a different city to represent me in Delhi?

Yes, you can hire a lawyer from another city, including a family friend. However, they must be able to practice in the Delhi court and may need to collaborate with a local lawyer for procedural help. There's no legal restriction, but it may involve extra travel or case coordination. For further legal assistance contact us on our helpline number.
