Welcome to the Great Law School Placement Ordeal...
Over here you can find a blend of the so called successful people with 'cool' pay packages along with people who have tried but failed miserably and people who just haven't  bothered....Before embarking on our eventful journey of actually describing this wonderful and sadistic experience of scrutinising minute details of how crooked, cocky and 'professional' people can be over here, I would like to mention that the sample upon which this note is based is only that of the law school I study in..Therefore, situations may vary according to where exactly the person reading this note comes from.

If you have noticed that whenever one sees the usage of the word “Client”, one knows that there just has to be lawyer or an architect involved since no one else in the 'white collar' business game ever seems to refer to anyone as “clients". On a train/plane you are a passenger (unless you are flying Kingfisher), in a hospital you are a patient (unless you are in some super specialty hospital where trust God,you are nothing but a customer), in a class you are a student, in the economy at large you’d be a consumer, in the polity, the common man (but now in the world of gender neutral addressal system, 'the common person').However, the doberman luckily seesm to have successfully avoided the ruccus and is not a  doberperson.(sorry! bad joke!). 
But when it comes to being a “Client”,the only people known to have clients appears to be lawyers, architects and prostitutes, all of whom have to live with the reputation that they are simply out to screw you. Only the prostitute is honest about it.

Did you notice? You sit on your computer thinking of doing something productive, and end up spending a lot of time on the internet – maybe on Facebook, maybe reading tweets, watching videos, looking at funny images and advertisements, sending mails, befriending and chatting with people or even reading some random blog. Imagine inside your head: a gigantic net, which is very, very sticky, and imagine yourself like a fly stuck in that net. That is internet for you. Are you getting stuck?

Q. Are internships helpful in getting a PPO. How do I go about it?

Ans.  Yes they are. Why...I'll tell you later. First get your hands on the PPO thingy.

GETTING A PPO

1.) You have to be in the 4th/ 5th year for that. (If you are in the 5 year course that is).

2.) Then, have a portfolio which is perfectly aligned to the place you are interning.

A 5th year student, interning at Anand and Anand (a leading IP firm) and expecting a PPO should have done at least couple of internships in IP boutiques, presented/ published a dozen papers on the subject and also completed some good add-on courses on IP.

3.) So you are at Anand and Anand. A teenie-weenie 4th year student. Now impress the boss you are working with.

A lawyer issued a legal notice to quit on behalf of his client. He posted it through registered AD and courier. Since he did not receive any AD card, h filed a complaint with the Post office .In the meantime, he sought for the proof of delivery from the courier company. He entrusted his clerk with the responsibility of pursuing the courier company and procure the hard copy of the proof of delivery.

The judgment of the Supreme court in Sundaram Finance Ltd v. NEPC India Ltd., reported in   (1999) 2 SCC 479 observed at para 12 thereof that though section 17 gives the arbitral tribunal the power to pass orders, the same cannot be enforced as orders of a court and it is for this reason only that Section 9 gives the court power to pass interim orders during the arbitration proceedings.

I began to write this about three weeks ago. A lot has changed since then. Terror has shaken our relatively sleepy city from its sense of security.

Yeah right you pervert pricks. This post isn’t the answer to the kink in you. This post is not on your office fantasies. This is a post on the bad times which may come at “that time of the year” - It’s the appraisal and bonus time. That time of the year when you pretend to be extra cool with the partners. That time of the year when every miss of a semi colon feels like a burning rod shoved where it fits the best. When every cough on a con-call is like a resounding echo in Qutub Minar. When you would want to hold on to your pee till your palms start hurting because of your nails sinking in them so that you can show your partners how you sit on your chair. If you turn out to be one of those hopeless souls getting “laid off” despite all your attempts, here are TOP FIVE READYMADE ALTERNATIVES:
