How a lawyer can assist

Legal assistance may include reviewing the chronology, identifying evidence, preparing a complaint, advising on police/cybercrime reporting, assisting with an FIR request and explaining possible remedies. The exact offences and provisions depend on the conduct, the content involved, the age of the persons concerned and other facts.

Preserve evidence before blocking

Before blocking an account, where it is safe to do so, preserve relevant evidence such as screenshots, profile links, usernames, phone numbers, email addresses, payment information and dates. Do not forward intimate material unnecessarily. Preserve evidence securely and share it only with appropriate authorities or legal advisers.

Online reporting

The Government of India’s National Cyber Crime Reporting Portal provides online reporting facilities for cybercrime. The appropriate category and reporting process depend on the circumstances. A legal adviser can help you prepare a clear factual complaint without unnecessary disclosure of private information.
