Promotion, seniority, transfer and pension disputes shape a public servant's career. We help you put your case before the Tribunal clearly and on time.

Common questions
Must I approach the department first?
Usually the Tribunal expects you to have used the available departmental remedies, such as a representation or appeal, before filing an application.
Is there a time limit to approach KAT?
Yes, the Administrative Tribunals Act sets a limitation period, though the Tribunal may condone delay for sufficient cause. It is best to act early.
Can a KAT order be challenged?
Yes. KAT orders can be challenged by a writ petition before a Division Bench of the High Court.
