Case analysis focuses not merely on the ultimate decision, but also on the reasoning, issues considered, treatment of evidence and the practical implications of the judgment.

Litigation Strategy

Each case has its own facts. Thus effective advocacy does not begin when a matter is called in Court. It begins with understanding the factual background, examining the available record, identifying the legal issues, researching the applicable law and preparing the manner in which the case is to be presented. At Ashok Law Office, preparation is therefore treated as an integral part of advocacy. A case often requires more than identifying the applicable law. It requires deciding how the facts, record and law should be presented. Litigation strategy may involve:

• Identifying the principal legal issues
• Analysing strengths and weaknesses in the record
• Determining the appropriate legal grounds
• Anticipating the opposing case
• Selecting and organising relevant authorities
• Preparing written submissions
• Preparing arguments for specific stages of proceedings
• Developing an appropriate sequence for presenting the case

The objective is to ensure that the case is properly prepared before it is presented before the Court or other forum.
