Cheque Bounce and Money Recovery Lawyer in Dehradun
TSK & Associate handles cheque bounce cases under Section 138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act, 1881, and civil recovery of money, for individuals and businesses in Dehradun.
When a cheque given for a debt is returned unpaid, the law gives you strong remedies, but the deadlines are strict. A legal notice must go within 30 days of receiving the bank's return memo, and the complaint must be filed within the time allowed after that.
We handle the entire process, from the legal notice to the complaint, trial and recovery, and we also defend people who have received a cheque bounce notice or summons.

● Strong documentation: proof of debt, invoices, agreements and messages organised for court.
