Advocate Joginder Poswal
I am an advocate specialising in non-litigation legal advisory, drafting, and consultation. Prior to my legal career, I spent fifteen years in the IT sector, focusing on digital infrastructure, systems architecture, and compliance-driven environments. This experience enables me to understand both the technical and legal aspects of issues such as data breaches, cybercrime complaints, and commercial contracts.
My practice focuses on three areas: cyber law and data protection, corporate and commercial law, and inheritance and estate planning.
15 Years in Technology. Now in Legal Practice.
Before becoming an advocate, I spent fifteen years in the information technology sector, focusing on digital infrastructure, systems architecture, and regulatory compliance in technology-driven settings.
My experience directly shapes my approach to legal issues relating to technology.
When dealing with a data breach, the analysis starts with the technical facts: what data was processed, how it was stored, and which systems were involved. The requirements under the DPDP Act 2023 depend on these details. For commercial contracts, it is important to look at the real-world operations behind the agreement as well as the legal terms. In cases of cybercrime, such as UPI fraud or account freezes, understanding the technical details of the incident is also essential.
I am enrolled with the Bar Council of Punjab and Haryana (Enrolment No. PH/9616/2023) and practise exclusively in non-litigation legal advisory, drafting, and consultation.

Law Informed by Technical Understanding
Technology-related legal matters often include both technical and legal challenges. For example, a data breach can require meeting compliance rules and carrying out a technical investigation. In cyber fraud cases, it is important to understand both how the incident happened and which laws apply. Following the DPDP Act also depends on how data is collected, processed, stored, and accessed in your systems.
Before becoming an advocate, I spent about fifteen years working in technology. This experience helps me understand technical documents, system processes, and technology records when handling these cases.
I work in areas such as cyber law, DPDP Act compliance, technology contracts, and cases involving technology risk and regulatory compliance.
I do not guarantee outcomes, as each case depends on its specific facts, documents, and the laws that apply.
