eVaqil.com
Last updated: 25 May 2026
eVaqil.com is a practice-management and workflow tool intended for advocates, judicial clerks, paralegals, law students, and other legal professionals practising primarily before Indian courts and tribunals. It helps users organise case data, hearings, documents, reminders, and communications.
eVaqil is a service provider and intermediary. The Service is not a law firm, does not provide legal advice, and does not establish an attorney–client relationship between you and eVaqil. Nothing in the Service is a substitute for independent professional judgment.
Consistent with Rule 36 of the Bar Council of India Rules, the Service is not a vehicle for soliciting professional work on behalf of advocates. Features such as the advocate directory exist to help legal professionals discover and contact one another for collegial, referral, or professional collaboration purposes — not to advertise services to non-advocate prospective clients.
Access to the Service requires a verified Indian mobile number. Verification is performed via one-time password (OTP) delivered by SMS or by demonstrating possession of an existing session.
You may use the Service to:
You agree not to, and not to permit any other person to:
Case details, cause lists, orders, judgments, party information, and similar records shown in the Service may be retrieved from public court systems including the eCourts Services portal, court-complex micro-sites, and analogous sources. eVaqil does not control these sources, does not warrant their accuracy or availability, and is not responsible for delays, gaps, errors, or downtime in them.
You must independently verify any time-sensitive or determinative information — including hearing dates, listing details, orders, and deadlines — directly from official court records before acting on it.
Certain features (including, where enabled, summarisation, drafting suggestions, extraction of fields from documents, and the "AI Clerk") use machine-learning models that may be operated by third-party providers. For these features the content you submit, or content fetched on your behalf, may be transmitted to those providers solely to generate a response.
The Service offers a tool that computes MD5 hashes for files on your device and exports an evidence-style report. The tool is intended to assist with chain-of-custody documentation under S. 63 of the Bharatiya Sakshya Adhiniyam, 2023 but does not, by itself, constitute a certificate or attestation. Whether a hash, report, or any accompanying certificate is admissible or sufficient in a given proceeding is for the competent court and the practitioner to determine.
You retain ownership of the case data, notes, documents, broadcasts, job postings, and other content you create, upload, import, or transmit through the Service ("User Content").
You grant eVaqil a worldwide, royalty-free, non-exclusive licence to host, store, copy, process, transmit, render, and otherwise use your User Content solely to provide and operate the Service for you, to perform backups, to enforce these Terms, and to comply with applicable law. This licence terminates when you delete the relevant User Content from the Service, subject to reasonable operational lag, backup cycles, and legal-hold obligations.
You are solely responsible for your User Content and for ensuring you have the right to submit, share, or process it through the Service. Do not upload material whose disclosure you are not authorised to make.
The Service uses push notifications and, where you opt in, SMS for hearing reminders, security alerts, and product communications. You can manage notification permissions in your device settings and through the in-app notification controls. Operational and security alerts may continue even when product communications are disabled.
The core Service is currently offered without charge. eVaqil may introduce paid features, plans, or transaction-based fees in the future. Where a feature is paid, the fees, billing cycle, taxes, refund terms, and any usage limits will be disclosed at the point of purchase, and your continued use of the paid feature confirms acceptance of those additional terms.
The Service, including its software, source code, design, branding, content (other than User Content), and the eVaqil.com marks, is owned by eVaqil and its licensors and is protected by copyright, trade mark, and other applicable laws. Nothing in these Terms transfers ownership of these rights to you. You receive only a limited, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable right to use the Service in accordance with these Terms.
The Service integrates with third-party services for hosting, messaging, notifications, analytics, and assistive features. Those services are governed by their own terms and privacy notices, and eVaqil is not responsible for their conduct or content. The Privacy Policy lists the categories of third parties we engage and the data shared with them.
The Service is provided on an "as-is" and "as-available" basis. To the maximum extent permitted by law, eVaqil disclaims all warranties, whether express, implied, statutory, or otherwise, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy, non-infringement, uninterrupted operation, and freedom from defects or harmful code.
eVaqil does not warrant that the Service will be available at any particular time, that data fetched from third-party sources will be timely or accurate, that AI-generated output will be correct, or that reminders and notifications will be delivered without delay or omission.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, eVaqil, its officers, employees, contractors, and suppliers will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages; loss of profits, revenue, goodwill, data, or use; loss of any opportunity (including a professional or litigation opportunity); or loss resulting from missed deadlines, missed hearings, or inaccurate court data, arising out of or related to your use of, or inability to use, the Service.
eVaqil's total aggregate liability arising out of or related to the Service, regardless of the form of action, will not exceed the greater of (a) the total amount you paid to eVaqil for the Service in the twelve (12) months immediately preceding the event giving rise to the claim, or (b) INR 1,000.
Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits any liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited under applicable Indian law.
You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless eVaqil and its officers, employees, contractors, and suppliers from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses, including reasonable legal fees, arising out of or related to (i) your use of the Service, (ii) your User Content, (iii) your breach of these Terms or applicable law, or (iv) your violation of any third-party right.
You may stop using the Service at any time. eVaqil may suspend or terminate your access where you breach these Terms, where required by law or court order, where continued access poses a security, integrity, or operational risk, or where the Service (or any feature within it) is discontinued.
Upon termination, sections of these Terms that by their nature should survive will survive, including provisions on intellectual property, disclaimers, limitation of liability, indemnity, governing law, and dispute resolution.
We may change, add, or remove features at any time. We may also amend these Terms; when we do, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page and, where the changes are material, take reasonable steps to bring them to your attention. Continued use of the Service after the changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.
These Terms are governed by the laws of India without regard to its conflict-of-laws principles. The courts at New Delhi, India shall have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute, controversy, or claim arising out of or in connection with these Terms or the Service, subject to any mandatory consumer-protection rights you may have at your place of residence.
