are there any law graduates who did not pursue law after graduation and changed their profession entirely? did they not feel guilty about studying something for 5 years and then not professionally pursuing it( assuming it is a lit glorified that you are an advocate or work in a law firm) is there anyone who thinks that?
dude chunav ladna exam likhne jaisa nahi hai woh bhi national wala. Also, every field has the senior-junior dynamic- much much worse in politics as many seniors are also senior advocates/ old advocates.
True. Atleast in politics, I have a light at the end of the tunnel. Here, I am a Senior most junior forever. Gosh, even as I type, it sounds ridiculous
There’s plenty of them dude. At least do some basic research on LinkedIn before expecting people on LI to spoon feed you answers. For example, keywords like “NLU MBA LinkedIn” on Google would do the trick. Also try to use social media correctly, I’ve been following alumni from my law school on Instagram so I know some of them are now in real estate, education etc.
Two of my friends went to pursue MS and left law immediately after graduating and never looked back. One is doing MS in UI/UX and the other is doing MS in Business Analytics. Realised tech seems way better than law in terms of pay and opportunities.
I transitioned from law to a semi-legal profession (lobbying on behalf of business houses). My work hours are light and the pay is fabulous, so I am glad I left law firm life. But the work involves corruption, sadly. Even for signing a simple form a bureaucrat will demand Rs 1 crore to fund his son’s studies abroad.
- I represent business houses based from abroad and from India
- The work they do is quite prestigious, but requires permission and clearances from various government officers.
- This is where some govt officers demands bribes.
- The foreign companies cannot pay bribes because they will get into trouble in their home country. The Indian companies pay up and do it in a way that no paper trail is established.
- Some examples of people my clients have bribed:
A) A lower-level police officer (non-IPS) bought 2 luxury flats abroad
B) An officer from a minor UPSC service bought a 2 crore BMW for his son’s 18th birthday. The officer himself is from a village background and is from the OBC community. Today a millionaire. His son later went abroad to study.
C) A mid-level bank officer got his son’s fees abroad paid in full (for both undergrad and postgrad).
As for more senior officers like IAS and IPS, well, you can just about imagine how much they have made and their demands.
No, if there was no corruption, it would mean more legitimacy to law, and therefore enriching the profession.
Laws like Labor laws, mining laws are not practiced a lot, because clients prefer the hands down under route. If there wasnt corruption, Clients would approach lawyers to actually follow the law.
The whole senior junior nonsense put me off.
Contesting the lok sabha elections next year
I have a few post nominals. Not to brag. But that helps.
I have a contrarian opinion about everything.
I am too bruque to be a bureaucrat, not too much to be an elected representative.
I practise in armchair expert opinions
It does not take long for political parties to take note

So, better be grateful to those bureaucrats for accomodating paper pushers like us.
