Hi Mr. Rushab,

The charges to drop the case depend on the matter of the case and its current stage.

We would require the case details and documents to advise you in this matter.

Kindly contact us on phone.

Okay. Have you attended the expert meeting?

If you want us to represent you, we would need your POA.

I want the court either to continue the case without expert payment or drop the case without paying court fees.

That will not be possible at this stage unless we make a specific request with a well-planned strategy.

If you would like us to take up the matter, feel free to connect with us.

The court does not charge a fee for dropping the case. Fees paid when filing a case are not refundable.

I didn't pay the fees.

No case is registered without fees, except for the labor case. Your case may not be registered. If it is not registered, there is no case.

I have postponed the fees.

You will have to pay fees.

If you drop the case, you will lose the court fees paid.

However, if you reach a settlement with the defendant, then some of the fees can be refunded.

For more information, please contact us via Whatsapp.
