Question 1

How long does MSME Samadhaan arbitration take?

Accepted Answer

The MSME Samadhaan route is built for speed: once your application is complete, the Micro & Small Enterprises Facilitation Council is expected to decide within 90 days of starting proceedings. In practice, timelines depend on the council's caseload and how watertight your documentation is — which is why we prepare the claim file, invoices and follow-up evidence before filing.

Question 2

What does filing an MSME Samadhaan case cost?

Accepted Answer

Filing on the Samadhaan portal itself is free of government fees. The real cost is in preparing a claim that survives scrutiny — invoice trails, purchase orders, acceptance proofs and limitation-period checks. Our professional fee depends on the claim size and complexity, and we quote it upfront after reviewing your documents in the first consultation.

Question 3

How does money recovery through a civil suit work?

Accepted Answer

We start with a legal notice demanding payment. If the other side does not settle, a summary suit (for clear invoice/contract-based dues) or a regular civil suit is filed. Summary suits move faster because the defendant must first prove they deserve to defend. Recovery decrees can then be executed against the defaulter's assets. Where a contract has an arbitration clause, we evaluate whether arbitration will be quicker than court.

Question 4

Should I choose arbitration or go to court for a commercial dispute?

Accepted Answer

If your contract has an arbitration clause, arbitration is usually faster, private and decided by a subject expert — and we can invoke the clause and manage the entire proceeding. Without a clause, civil court is the route. For MSME receivables, Samadhaan arbitration is often the fastest of all. We compare the realistic timeline and cost of each option for your specific dispute before you commit.

Question 5

Can you review or draft contracts before I sign them?

Accepted Answer

Yes — preventive work is the cheapest legal spend. We draft and review agreements, deeds and MoUs with enforceable payment terms, interest-on-delay clauses, arbitration clauses and exit protections, so a dispute later is a formality rather than a battle.

Question 6

Do you handle employee fraud or breach-of-trust cases?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Where an employee or partner has misappropriated funds or breached trust, we pursue criminal litigation alongside civil recovery so that pressure to settle and repay comes from both directions. We also handle labour-court and employment-dispute matters on the employer side.
