Hi!

You may file a civil suit under order 37 cpc. In order to get the money decree, we will have to prove that defendant took money from you. Fistly, We will have to draft the plaint according to facts and circumstances of the case and then file in the civil court. . After that Notice will be issued to defendant and then proceedings will kick off.

Cost of legal action and Advocate fees depends upon case to case. Further, We need all facts and figures to analyze the case before providing you the specific legal advice as per your case.

Thanks!
