This is very encouraging. Personally I know the managing partner, he is a great lawyer, this is the time where his leadership and administrative capacity is being tested. With exits and split, questions are bound to be raised on his leadership skills, but am sure he will rise to the occasion

After earning a crore and pampering myself - I shiver at the sight of women struggling with their children and man-child.

I can hire and pay men to do the things I need done. A driver. A security guard. A pick me up artist. I have options.

Same time I can spend time with my girl gang and I know that lot envies me as I travel the world and get accolades.

Do i feel empty inside? No. But but my married friends sure do.

If you’re pretty and/or fit and have good skin care you will def meet lots of men. Personality and aligned interests and goals will take you from there.

Men are quite easy btw, if you need a quick fix, even the taken ones will agree in a heartbeat. You just need to make a move.

Dear positive person, please show me real examples of single women in India who are lawyers, have no partner but have a child with no father (past or present)!! Also show me such examples of single men too in this industry! If you cannot then you should know how delusional you are. Or may be you can be the first such person and set an example for this industry.

I do not know when this rumour started but this is untrue. NLS students also get PPOs with fewer internships than NALSAR NUJS people many of whom do 6-7 corp internships. Even if you look at the percentage of T1 placements. The only place where NALSAR does better is vacation schemes - they usually get around 4-5 while NLS has been getting around 2-3.

This is strangely transparent. How do you get back against those you have grudges, it seems?

We have no clue who is in the wrong but we know who is spending hours plotting.

There have been attacks on this very platform on many individuals in this profession.

I think this lays bare what goes into some of the obvious malicious attempt to discredit some.

If you need a good answer - if its unbearable - walk out. If it crosses a line - formally complain.

Keep it simple. You're not doing anyone any favours with seeking help solve your grudges.

This line of thinking was what gave gundas business. You're not better if you go through.

Here's what I found - there's nothing you can really do other than make your own personal situation better in the team, so disarm with charm and kill with kindness. Seniors can only be horrid that many times in the face of absolute non-retaliation before they consciously self-correct. - M.K. Gandhi was onto something for sure.

IIULER Goa is listed in CLAT option for UG and PG. But when referred in Google, it shows that IIULER is Private University and they cannot Join CLAT Consortium as per the existing laws? So, whether really IIULER Goa is an NLU (government owned) or are they misleading CLAT Aspirants? Please give some insights on this

I'm about to start my third year from a pretty badly reputed t2 nlu and would appreciate advice on how to talk to professionals in general since I keep failing deliberate opportunities like talking to partners at paper presentations or making connections with associates at internships. During one of my internships I met a partner of T1 firm who judged my presentation and I literally ran into a wall while talking to them. Would appreciate advice from people working in the industry who deal with similar issues. (P.S additional question but is it okay to send said partner mails even though there's been no response regarding my last 2 attempts)

Is it just my college or that every Top NLU and Top Private Colleges have been given mass Trilegal internship offers to BO'27 for this summer break? If yes, does that mean there is gonna be a cut-throat competition for Call-backs and eventually PPO? Is it their first time doing this, or is it a first-time stunt? Watching so many people get in makes me anxious as to how T1 firms exploit the hopes and dreams of interns.

That's total nonsense. Your LLM does have to be niche. Teaching these days is mostly research-led teaching, so you need a specialism. Increasingly even in India, you need to be able to show proof to your uni of ongoing research and writing if you become an academic. Plus, LLM isn't really optional anymore. If you are thinking about abroad, no LLM and no PhD is like a disabled person with no legs trying to run a 100m race without a wheelchair. Academia everywhere is so credentialised these days that you need all the degrees you can get. Don't take someone like Nicolas McBride of Cambridge as a paradigmatic example of anything. Your usage of language seemed to indicate that you might think a non-postgraduate degrees pathway viable - like what McBride did. McBride is one of a kind: an academic without an LLM or PhD, teaching at Cambridge. That's got more to do with (1) when McBride entered the profession (at a time when further degrees in law were not viewed as essential requirements); and (2) because McBride himself is an exceptional guy with fantastic books on, among other things, philosophy of tort law and private law theories. Unless you have the guts to say you are the next McBride, you'll need to prove your academic worth via further degrees and publications to even get a foot in the door.

Honestly, avoid CAM unless you don’t have an option. The firm wide culture is toxic AF and the teams that defy this internally are few and far in between. While CSS pretends to be leading an international institution, any foreign firm with the culture that CAM has would be immediately ‘canceled’ in international circles. For instance, the ‘Maharathi’ email doesnt appear to have changed anything. Multiple other horror stories across teams which havent received that degree of public awareness. Even if they pay you well, which they don’t mostly, its just not worth it.

Hello,

At the outset, I request you to please be kind to me here. I am not an LI user and this is my first time asking for help. I grew up in a modest home, with my dad on government payroll that got divided between my fees, ration, EMI and sending half of it back to his home town to ailing parents - so I always grew up with slightly less than what I needed and not what I wanted.

Worked my way up to a t2 law school and got placed in a firm offering a t1 salary. I will be moving to Bangalore next month to start.

I want to understand how to manage my finances. What are my best investment options - my brother is big on stock market and I am not but since he understands the risks and everything, I am planning to send 10% of my salary to him to invest in the market. 20% I am planning to put in SIPs. 5% in digital gold. Should I consider mutual funds? I don't have a lot of knowledge here on. Trying to do my research, but someone having gone along the similar lines can help please?

I want to keep some money vacant for myself. Buy some good quality formal clothes and not rely on street thrifting for once, buy a good laptop/ ipad, reserve money for takeouts and get online OTT subscriptions to help destress. Would it be a bad idea to save up for myself?

As I am writing this, I understand the best person to ask would be my dad - as I am here because of his impeccable financial management, but he also never kept anything to himself, and I am not sure if that's how I want to live.

A little help, or even some direction towards useful resources will help. Thanks!
