Yes the chances are 50-50 but filing a private complaint with evidence being monitored by us will lead to definate coviction as we ourself will lead the entrie case and the section which involve the offence have same tenure of imprisonment so the chances in filing private complaint is much better than FIR

Before filing private complaint, you need to first avail the remedy of lodging FIR with concerned police station. If despite your complaint, police don't take appropriate steps or they just register your nc or they direct you to go for private complaint, then you can go for private complaint. if your case is strong and there is sufficient material against accused, then conviction will happen.

Well, your Advocate is showing you merely the negative and dark side. It is his duty to get the things done in a proper, right and legal way, rather than blaming Public Prosecutors and Court, your Adv needs to show you what he has done so far to seek justice for you in Court!
