It's all a big hoax, the "tiers" are not real. Apart from nlu kids everyone in the industry ranks teams instead of firms. So a m&a team of firm would be tier one while the firm itself is t2, likewise. Example how Anand and remfry are t1 for IP instead of trilegal or SAM.

Hi everyone

I am a young A0 at boutique law and i have been tasked with reviewing and drafting of various NDA, MSA , SHAs and other agreements.

Please suggest how I should learn to draft the Agreement. What all things should i keep in mind while reviewing or drafting the agreement?

Thank you

You should take the offer if your ultimate goal is to land up in a tier-1 firm. Almost all tier-1s have similar levels of toxicity across different teams, with some teams being more toxic than others. It mostly comes down to individual teams and experiences, so if you like your partner and team, then go for it.

My parents were very nervous whether I would clear 12th class boards in one go. So they were estatic when I got first division (I graduated from school in mid-2000s, not 1960s, FYI).

My folks didn't know that I got through to a reasonably good college (what will now be called a "Tier 1 NLU", ugh!), but they were pleasantly surprised when some people responded positively to this information.

I also got through another (much more) competitive exam / selection process than law after school. But, so much of it is luck, so don't bash yourself too much, nor gloat about any thing.

Those of you whose parents taunt you; speak with your parents and let them know that this isn't productive or healthy (for them to taunt you). Hopefully, your parents will relax in life.

Have a lot to write on this. Hope my comment gets published before the mods and trolls ruin it.

The industry standard in Litigation is 25k per month. Tier 1s offer much higher amounts ranging from 14 LPA to 18 LPA so unless you get a Tier 1 firm, monetarily, you are screwed. There are some well-known litigation boutiques but they don't offer a generous stipend either, this is again usually just 25k. Tier 2 firm may go up to 50-60k.

Also, the pay is a lot lower in Mumbai than it is in Delhi so going to Mumbai for litigation is always a bad idea because not only are you getting paid less but your also paying more for living.

One piece of advice that I would give is to avoid chambers as much as you can, keep them only as a last resort. A lot of them don't pay and even if they do, it's something around 5k-25k. The good lawyers would stretch it to 30k-40k. Most of the times, they're not looking for juniors, they're just looking for slaves who can inflate their ego. Plus, they have no dedicated HR or Admin so if you try to negotiate with them they get extremely offended.

That being said, not all chambers are bad. Tgere are some seniors who are known for being exceptionally good and many Tier 1 partners who've exited the Firm and started their own chambers can also be a good place to join. From what I've observed, it's usually the shady and obscure ones that have some sinister agenda w.r.t their juniors. If you can't find out much about the lawyer, you're applying to, it's because they don't want the world to know what they're doing so avoid them at all costs, even if the pay seems above average. And NEVER accept a bond period, in fact, get this clarified at the interview stage itself.

All in all, litigation is not a good area to make a "salary" in unless you're in a Tier 1, unfortunately. The goal should be to go independent or switch later to a non-itigation practice area.

The average IIT package is not 30 LPA. Which world are you living in? Do you even know that except CS and Electrical, students from other branches struggle to get placed? Do you know that in today's time irrespective of your branch you end up mastering Python, C fam langs, UX/UI, etc. if you want half a decent job?

Do you even know one IITian? Talk to one and you'll know the reality.

After all, a BTech will handle HR function more diligently than a law grad or MBA HR.

STEM should be valued like that only.

STEM can do any non STEM work very smoothly including law (JSD)

Non STEM would not even be able to carry out non STEM work without hand holding.

Take this from someone who as offered a job in Gujarat. It is a hellhole. No one wants to work there. Non Gujaratis blatantly decline relocation. Unless the Gujaratis stop being elitists and allow nveg and alcohol, no one is going to happily go there. Societies literally kick you out if they find out you have eggs?

If this is true, these actions are truly condemnable!!

15 lpa toh T1 bhi nahi dete bhai. Stop making the amount look rosy. It's not it. Surely, one can consider it as variable, but they don't pay the whole amount anyway. So 15lpa is not fixed, it includes variable. Even if we were to consider 15 is fixed toh variable mila ke 18-19lpa denge vo?

As far as I know, Sibal is no longer associated with INC. Don't tell that majority of lawyers/individuals do not have certain perspective/outlook/ideology. Individuals who are not vocal about their views are more dangerous then those who are. I am not advocating against reforms; however, the conversation should not be restricted to political affiliation. Instead, learning from previous incidents, there has to be a system of accountibility, checks, and balances, so that the power is not conferred on the single individual and exercise of power for personal gain leads to some sanctions. One individual must not be allowed to send unnecessary, illogical, and senseless messages to judges and other institutions in the name of bar. In other words, strictly acting within the mandate/objective should be a condition precedent to continue to remain as a president/executive of the SCBA.

all indian unis give out equivalent grade number in % if requested

uk unis know this, so if you submit your cgpa they are going to ask for % equivalence and then if you can provide a document from your uni which states that your cgpa is equivalent to 71% (which is distinction grade in the UK) then you can easily get into any top 5 uk unis

Learn how to efficiently use Manupatra and SCC. What works personally for me is I write my research proposition down and then identify the key words which I think would match with the cases present in the database. Re arranging your proposition also helps. Use the Boolean search mode as well.
