When a court matter is at stake, the quality of your petition can change everything. A poorly drafted writ petition, bail application, or SLP can delay your case or get rejected at the first hearing itself. At WebLex, we provide professional court petition drafting services in India, online, case-specific, court-specific, and reviewed by qualified legal professionals. Whether you are an individual, an advocate, a law firm or a company, we prepare litigation drafts that are structured, legally sound, and court-ready.

What is Court Petition Drafting?
Court petition drafting is the preparation of formal legal documents for filing before a court of law. This includes writ petitions, bail applications, Special Leave Petitions, criminal and civil appeals, revision petitions, review petitions, and contempt petitions.
This is specifically about litigation drafting - documents that go before a judge in a High Court or the Supreme Court of India. It is not the same as legal documentation, which covers agreements, deeds, notices, and contracts.
WebLex Legal Drafting covers court petitions and litigation pleadings. For agreements, deeds, notices, and other non-litigation legal documents, explore our Legal Documentation Services.
A well-drafted court petition clearly states the facts of the case, the legal grounds for relief, and the specific orders sought from the court. It must follow the procedural requirements and formatting standards of the relevant court. Getting this right from the start saves time, reduces unnecessary hearings, and gives your matter a stronger footing.
Petitions We Draft for the Supreme Court of India
The Supreme Court of India is the highest court in the country. Here is what can be filed there, and what we draft:
- Special Leave Petition (SLP) under Article 136: To challenge a High Court order before the Supreme Court.
- Writ Petition under Article 32: To enforce Fundamental Rights. Only the Supreme Court hears writs under Article 32.
- Civil Appeal: To challenge a civil order of a lower court or High Court.
- Criminal Appeal: To challenge a criminal conviction or order passed by a High Court.
- Transfer Petition: To move a case from one court or jurisdiction to another.
- Review Petition: To ask the Supreme Court to reconsider one of its own orders.
- Curative Petition: The last legal remedy after a review petition is dismissed.
- Contempt Petition: When a Supreme Court order has not been followed by the other side.
What is an Advocate on Record (AOR) and Where Is It Required?
An Advocate on Record (AOR) is a lawyer specially certified by the Supreme Court of India, and only an AOR is authorised to file a case before the Supreme Court. This certification is issued exclusively by the Supreme Court, under its own rules, after an advocate clears the AOR exam.
How WebLex Supports AOR-Based Filings ?
WebLex prepares Supreme Court drafts in the format and structure an AOR needs for filing, so there are no delays or objections on procedural grounds. We do not act as your AOR and do not file matters ourselves; drafting is our scope, and filing is handled by an enrolled AOR. If you already work with an AOR, we align the draft to their requirements. If you do not have one yet, we can guide you on how to proceed.
Petitions We Draft for High Courts in India
India has 25 High Courts serving 28 states and 8 union territories, so it's not exactly a "one state, one High Court" setup. Several states share a common High Court. The Punjab and Haryana High Court covers two full states plus a union territory, the Gauhati High Court serves Assam along with neighboring northeastern states, and the Bombay High Court has jurisdiction over Maharashtra, Goa, and nearby union territories. Larger states like Uttar Pradesh, Karnataka, and Rajasthan each have a dedicated High Court of their own. Many High Courts also operate circuit or permanent benches in other cities within their jurisdiction. The Bombay High Court, for instance, sits at Nagpur, Aurangabad, and Goa, so people don't always have to travel to the main seat to access justice. Every state has access to a High Court, but not every state has its own. Some are shared across state lines.
Here is what can be filed in High Court, and what we draft:
- Writ Petition under Article 226: To challenge government action, administrative orders, or rights violations. Article 226 gives High Courts wider powers than Supreme Court.
- Anticipatory Bail Application: Filed before arrest. Asks the High Court to protect the person from arrest in a criminal matter.
- Regular Bail Application: Filed after arrest. Asks the High Court to release the accused on bail.
- Interim Bail Application: For short-term or urgent bail relief.
- Criminal Appeal: To challenge a Sessions Court conviction, sentence, or order.
- Civil Appeal: To challenge a civil court order before the High Court.
- Criminal Revision Petition: To ask the High Court to re-examine a lower court criminal order.
- Civil Revision Petition: To challenge a civil court order where a regular appeal is not available.
- Review Petition: To ask the High Court to reconsider one of its own orders.
- Contempt Petition: When a High Court order has been ignored by the other side.
- PIL (Public Interest Litigation): For matters that affect the public or a large group of people.
We cover all High Courts across India. Our service is fully online, so your location does not matter.

Why You May Need a Type Copy Before Filing?
Courts require every document filed with a petition to be clearly legible. If an order, FIR, charge sheet, or any annexure is handwritten, faded, poorly scanned, or otherwise hard to read, the court registry can raise it as a defect during scrutiny. This delays the listing and hearing of your matter, sometimes by weeks. To avoid this, an unclear document is retyped into a clean, accurate replica called a Type Copy, matching the original content exactly, so it meets the court's readability standards.
A legible Type Copy is also essential for WebLex to draft your petition accurately. Our legal professionals rely on the facts, dates, and details in your documents to prepare a court-ready draft; if the original is unreadable, we cannot verify or draft from it. Do note: a Type Copy cannot be prepared from a document that is entirely blank, illegible, or where content cannot be reasonably made out.
Type Copy charges are separate from your drafting fee and are billed per page. This cost is not included in the petition drafting price and will be communicated to you upfront if your documents require type copying.
Pricing and Consultation
Our pricing is based on the complexity of your matter. Simpler petitions cost less. Complex matters with detailed facts, multiple legal issues, or large volumes of documents cost more.

Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between Legal Drafting and Legal Documentation at WebLex?
Legal Drafting at WebLex means court petitions and litigation documents like writ petitions, bail applications, SLPs, and appeals. Legal Documentation means non-litigation documents like agreements, deeds, and notices. If you are unsure which one you need, describe your situation to us and we will guide you.
How long does it take to prepare a draft?
It depends on the type of petition and the complexity of your case. A bail application takes less time than a detailed writ petition or SLP. We give you a clear delivery timeline after reviewing your documents.
How many revision rounds do I get?
You get two revision rounds as part of your drafting fee. If you have corrections, new information, or feedback after receiving the draft, we revise it at no extra cost.
Does the fee change based on the type of petition?
Yes. A straightforward bail application costs less than a complex SLP or a writ petition with multiple legal issues. You receive a fixed quote before we start. No surprises.
Is this service available for all High Courts in India?
Yes. We cover all High Courts across India and the Supreme Court. Everything is online, so your location does not affect anything.
Can advocates use WebLex for regular drafting support?
Yes. Advocates use our court drafting support to handle their drafting workload. We prepare the draft based on your client's case facts, and you take it forward.
Is my case information safe?
Yes. Everything you share, including documents, case facts, and personal details, is kept strictly confidential. We do not share your information with any third party.
What is a Type Copy, and is it included in the drafting fee?
A Type Copy is a clean, retyped, legible version of an illegible or poorly scanned document, required by courts to avoid defects during filing. WebLex charges for Type Copy services separately, on a per-page basis; it is not part of the standard petition drafting fee. Type copies cannot be prepared for blank or completely illegible documents.
Is an AOR required to file a case in the Supreme Court of India?
Yes. Any matter filed before the Supreme Court, including SLPs, writ petitions under Article 32, civil and criminal appeals, review petitions, curative petitions, transfer petitions, and contempt petitions, must be filed through an AOR.
Do I need to hire an AOR separately, or does WebLex arrange one?
WebLex focuses on drafting your petition. If you already have an AOR, we align the draft to their filing requirements. If you don't have one, we can guide you on the next steps to engage an AOR for your Supreme Court matter.
