That said, I’ve noticed that real estate often comes up in a negative light on this forum. Before making any move, I wanted to understand the reasoning behind this view.
Specifically:
- 1. What are the main drawbacks of choosing real estate as a primary practice area,
- 2. How do compensation and growth usually play out over time, and
- 3. Whether it makes sense to enter real estate at this stage of one’s career.
Would appreciate honest inputs from people who have worked in real estate or have seen how careers in this space typically progress.
Yesterday, there was a huge sell-off of IT stocks globally, which included our stocks like TCS, Infosys, etc. Why? Because Anthropic's latest AI is designed to handle routine legal work such as contract checks, non-disclosure agreement reviews, legal summaries, and standard drafting tasks.
This is like half the work freshers in law firms and in-house roles do. Fresher hirings are low as it is, and it appears to only be hit further going ahead.

I mean how do you survive without sleep, how do you function and make no mistakes that would cost something major to the firm. I mean no sleep is basically declining executive function
Strange are the ways of the world. Anyway hopefully everyone will play to the script. Big Boss et al are so passe. In due course of time Netflix etc will switch to this reality format as well.
Supreme show coming up
You earn good money no doubt but your health gets compromised badly. I even though don't have a heavy work schedule, poor physical and mental health does take away a lot of joys from your life.

“This email from Chomsky to Epstein proves that he wasn’t just giving his friend the benefit of doubt, not knowing the full nature and extent of his crimes. He was actively colluding with Epstein, strategizing about how to deal with the revelations about those crimes in the press”
His collusion with Epstein is a result of the same abstract geopolitical doctrine that passed for his politics, one that allowed him to deny the humanity of victims of horrific mass crimes against humanity – in Cambodia, Bosnia, Rwanda, Syria, Ukraine, China,”
Hats off to this lady. Someone with true integrity. A rare communist who practises what she preaches.

I have a very relevant query seeing the legal market in India. So there are many law firms and chambers across the country, and these are mostly unregulated and not registered be it in form of partnership/LLP or Company. Now if people (fresher or even experienced people) are joining these firms, they don't receive a written contract/offer letter. Nor do they have salary slips of whatever is being paid. Mostly payments are done in cash or upi payments, except for some formal law firms organisations mostly operating out of likes of Delhi/Mumbai. How do then these associates who work at these firms, prove about the same, if tomorrow they are going to join a Company or similar formal employment. Usually salary slips, appointment letter, experience letter and relieving letters are required at big places. Is this not creating a blockage for 99% of legal professionals to climb the career ladder?
Only honest answer please.
Firm's name is Donoso & Partners. If you are willing to join, you can send in an email to the Indian team MD. They'll hire you if your profile looks good and if they are looking for candidates, which they're mostly are.
