The Debt Recovery Tribunal (DRT) and SARFAESI Act cases are some of the most difficult in the world of debt recovery litigation. They involve complicated legal questions, short deadlines, and the high stakes of asset attachment or liquidation. Advocate Shashi Bhushan Singh has built a strong reputation in Delhi's legal community as a specialist advocate in this area. He helps clients navigate difficult recovery disputes with a mix of legal knowledge, strategic thinking, and practical sense.
Colleagues and clients alike say that Advocate Shashi Bhushan Singh knows the DRT regime and the SARFAESI Act inside and out. Advocate Shashi Bhushan Singh has developed a methodical approach that combines close reading of the law with practical experience. This is true whether he is writing a precise application under Section 17 or Section 18 of the SARFAESI Act, advising on the validity of a secured creditor's notice, or challenging the orders of the adjudicating authority under the DRT.
He is always ready and clear when he is in court. Opposing lawyers and courts often say that his pleadings are clear, well-researched, and in the right place.

In DRT/SARFAESI cases, being a good advocate isn't just about arguing the law. Advocate Shashi Bhushan Singh's strength is that he can put legal strategy in the context of real business situations.

On the other hand, he is known for being aggressive but reasonable when defending borrowers or guarantors.

In a number of cases reported by clients, his legal advice has helped them get back large sums of money in just a few weeks through smart settlements.
