Transitional justice thou an interesting concept is more inclined towards political science or international relations in specific. International law has nothing to do with transitional justice apart from the tribunals that deal with them like Nuremberg, Tokyo, ICTY and ICTR. All of these have already been researched well. So there's nothing left to research from a legal perspective. It's a dead case. Act like normal people and research ai and tech and cyber stuff.

Hey, I interned there after the results of my 2nd year were out. However, I received a confirmation before the results were out. And yes I went through a reference. It is not possible to intern there if you apply without a reference and it honestly does not make sense. I didn't understand shit.

Prof. Nagaraj, is a very senior academic. He is not only a product of the TLC ecosystem, but also carries slightly old generation values. While that does not seem to have caused major friction with Gen A to Y in his years at NLS... heard that Gen Z has not taken a big liking. In that respect he is not very different from Prof Elizebeth (the earlier VC). Students may find that they are both similar. While they may be similar, they are not the same. Prof. Nagaraj generally tries to restrict himself to well defined boundaries, but was flexible inside the same and open to some discussion/persuasion. Guess that was not the feedback about Prof Elizebeth, who appeared to have mostly become inflexible and impervious to any kind of discussion. The NLUO folks may have the latest though.

You are right. But, my point was if a blog or a publication does not accept your paper, try this too. I wrote an Economics article explaining concepts and sent it to HBS India research centre. They did not even reply.

I posted it on LinkedIn in an moderated Economics group. 38,000 impressions, 250+ likes. Similarly, I wrote a company profile. No interest. Tweeted it. 5000 impressions + a lot of profile visits.

The objective, in the end, is to not get dishearted or feel worthless if publication A, or company B doesn't accept you, and continue hammering your views. Eg will be Amish Agarwal and J Sai Deepak. I am sure there are better legal minds than them, but, aam janta likes them. Amish in one of his reels says, he is a 3rd gen lawyer, still gets 75% of his clients from people who watch his reels.

Woh kya likhega apne CV me? I am a lawyer and I make reels?

No. he is making himself heard.

Anyway, I agree with you. He/she should try publishing there, but, do this too.

I'm in first year of a state law school and I feel I haven't achieved much in my life as of now. I participated in an intra college moot court competition and got the best speaker title. I had a two digit rank in my entrance exam (Mh cet) and recently I have got to know that I am in top 10 of the batch. My 10th and 12th percentage are really average (80s and 70s). I haven't participated in any MUN or debate in all my school life. To worsen it, I have two gap years. I have got necessary soft skills and I'm well versed with excel and word but my drafting skills aren't very exceptional as of now. I'm really very confused how to present my CV to really appeal to advocates in order to give me an internship.

You can always buy it out or you can ask them to adjust the same in your pending salary. And yes, the company can hold on to your experience certificate etc., if you do not serve the entire notice period. You can go to court against the company but that will reflect very badly since these HR may red mark your profile on job portals. Try to exit smoothly.

After I finished my BCom, I had the opportunity to either join an MCA program at an NIT or Law.

I went on to make the stupidest decision of my life and chose Law for some reason. It was around 2017 and I never knew software would boom to this extent in Bangalore (My Hometown)

Never ever.

What will you write on your CV ? post published in LinkedIn. what nonsense! This is like someone claiming the online Jindal Masters is on par with UGC approved LLM. Publishing is a whole different ballgame and is highly more respected in any field. OP don't listen to this commenter.

as a woman, I'm sorry but i do look for a partner who's financially very sound. Very sorry to say this. But when I want to build a family with someone, do the manual household chores and physical labour incl childbearing and raising, i would want a partner who can support me otherwise. It can be the other way around too. There's no norm for how a relationship works for someone.

This is what works FOR ME and what I want in my relationship.

If you have a partner, maybe ask her and get some clarity? Her actions or response to your questions will give you the answer you need. If you don't have a partner, a bit pointless to be thinking about what will happen in the future with a person that doesn't even exist in your life.

Yes sir, litigation is hard. But I want to tell you corp ain't easy either. Obvs litigation is 100 times harder. Law as a whole field is not for the faint hearted. Maybe you can try building multiple sources of income. Start with small time trading, small businesses,etc. It's not easy. My respect for you is manifold. Feel better sir. I wish you the very best.

Is it normal for Trilegal to hire an intern who just finished their 2nd year or just finished their 5th sem? Just saw one girl from JGLS on LinkedIn who got into Trilegal before her 3rd year even started, and then worked there again after 5th sem as a "call back intern". Another girl from JGLS is working there, having just finished 5th sem.

I'm surprised because as far as I've seen the seniors in my college, all tier-1 firms hire for the period from when a person would've completed 3rd year, i.e., after 6th sem. I had observed this in the tier-1 interns from different colleges as well. Was I wrong about the post-6th sem thing or did these girls just get in through contacts? Pls lmk if there's any standing policy. Thanks!

"There is an oversupply of lawyers and every third law grad went to some NLU or the other. "

The arrogance with which this statement has been made, without even realising that it applies to MBA grads as well. I mean there has been an oversupply of MBA grads for a long time now. More than 5000 colleges offer MBA programmes and in 2021 alone there were more than 4L+ people who enrolled in them.

Good that you chose MBA, because looks like you don't how to build a good enough argument in the first place. Kya vakeel banega re tu?

Mid-July is the time for GNLU, NUJS and NLUJ. Okay now see, you don’t have to wait much after the fifth list as Some nlus do update their rank on websites (like NLIU, HNLU) and some websites don’t (Like NUJS, MNLU). Either way, you will get a mail offer to pay the amount within a very small amount of time. So y’all will join college anyway by august.

Budget: Brands like catwalk, inc5 and metro do great formal heels. Appropriate height and style. Most of their styles are padded on the inside so they provide excellent comfort. Range is 2k-3k.

Mid range: Zara, Mango and H&M also do great heels. I like their designs the best because of how sleek and smart they look however, they’re not the best in terms of comfort and durability. Range is 3k-5k.

Higher end: Aldo, Charles and Keith and Steve Madden. C&K is personal favourite, they’re smart comfy

Rgnul Kid drinks water in the courtroom. I had no idea we can't even drink water in the court.

I am a Judiciary aspirant from a law college. And I can tell one thing - here Local law college kids beat NLU's. In NLU's you are taught how to apply law. Local colleges you are taught law. You hate to learn rote provisons.

NLU kids participle in too much moots, ADR, internships etc which doesn't make any sense for Judicial Exams preparation. Also local college students are good at local language than NLU kids.

NLU kids, Symbiosis and Jindal - local kids will beat you in Judiciary. While we are unable to get good jobs especially corporate ones in big cities.

Judicial exams preparation is all about rote learning.

Since local college don't have the privilege of corporate jobs. We work hard from 4th Year. We learn stuff by heart for Judicial Exams.

And Judiciary only tests how much you have memorized.

Your internship at DY Chandrachud's chamber, Trilegal or Vidhi doesn't make sense.

Your speaking skills, research skills also doesn't matter. Because it's all about memorization and writing answers.

Sorry but the reality - we have a massive advantage here.

ohh bhai, jake pata krle thoda about ISB mba. It is recognized by International universities, something which even mid-level IIMs have not been able to rope in. Look at the alumni of ISB, and where all they are placed. Why would ISB need an accreditation from UGC when it has hand of foreign companies?

Idk if the Tier-1 lawyers are aiming for FIRE or not but I think the retirement in FIRE is not just solely sitting back at home and watching TV and then blowing money elsewhere. The thing is if you are blowing money, you need to be ultra rich for you to stay afloat.

As for a corpus, people in tier 2 metropolis can safely retire if they have saved up 7-8cr (provided that they are single).

She didn't tell me which team had vacancy at SAM and insisted on sending the CV to her first.

I knew about a certain team in Mumbai that has high attrition rate and did not want to apply for that team. Turns out the vacancy was in that team only and she forwarded my CV and then told me about the team. Now I cannot reapply in SAM for some cooling off period.

There's always a list of top NLUs or top firms but never about the people who directly contribute to the legal education.

So, irrespective of university, course, age, gender or background, currently who are the top 10 law professors of India ? As in who are the experts that will help take legal education forward ? Who are the present day DD Basu, Chimni, etc.

P.S. Only criteria is they must be teaching in India. Since foreign ones unfortunately will not contribute directly to the Indian education system.

If you couldn't even procure a conference invitation abroad in the last 30 years of your working then what makes you think you'll get it now ? The only thing that attracts academia abroad is young and credible prospects, or you should have millions to donate. Sorry but how about helping improve the grassroot level education in India, than trying for greener pastures abroad that won't even give 15 minutes to a 30 year experience.
