Mr. Ankit Choudhury is an Associate Partner at Diwan Advocates and joined the firm on 1 December 2025. He completed his Bachelor of Laws (LL.B.) from Vivekananda Institute of Professional Studies, Guru Gobind Singh Indraprastha University, graduating in 2015 with First Division.

He primarily practices before the High Court of Delhi and the District Courts of Delhi, and has also appeared before specialized forums such as the Central Administrative Tribunal and arbitral tribunals at the Delhi International Arbitration Centre (DIAC).

Ankit’s core areas of practice encompass civil litigation, including matters relating to specific performance, injunctions, declarations, and recovery proceedings; criminal litigation, with experience in quashing of FIRs and matters under Section 498A IPC; arbitration and mediation; as well as matrimonial and family law disputes. He also has substantial experience in conveyancing and property-related matters.

His approach to legal practice is detail-oriented, strategy-driven, and court-focused. He places strong emphasis on thorough preparation, providing realistic and candid advice to clients, and maintaining transparency at every stage of litigation, while diligently safeguarding the client’s legal and procedural interests.

Ankit is motivated by the intellectual rigor of litigation, the opportunity to guide clients through complex legal situations, and the professional satisfaction derived from effective courtroom advocacy and problem-solving. One of the most meaningful aspects of his career has been handling matters independently before the High Court and District Courts, particularly cases where procedural setbacks were overcome through persistent legal effort, detailed arguments, and strategic applications, ultimately securing relief for clients despite adverse circumstances.

Outside of his professional work, Ankit enjoys sports, particularly football and table tennis, and takes an active interest in reading and staying updated on legal developments. He also enjoys travelling and watching movies, activities that help him maintain balance and focus.

A principle that strongly resonates with him is: “No man is above the law and no man is below it.” — Theodore Roosevelt.

At Diwan Advocates, he values the firm’s professional environment, exposure to diverse legal issues, and emphasis on high-quality legal work, which aligns closely with his litigation-focused background and long-term professional aspirations.
