We want LI to be one of the friendliest places on the internet, where lawyers and law students help each other with their career related queries and occasionally discuss other stuff that might affect their lives too. In other words:
1. Be kind, respectful and helpful to each other.
2. Be bona fide, truthful, genuine and curious.
3. Assume the best intention of others.

1. Learning is much more. I have just learnt from just sitting next to my seniors and discussing stuff with them with a print on their hand or revising the document together.
2. I am not working 24x7. Once I leave office, I am expected to have logged out.
3. Office infra helps. Simple stuff like prints and coffee delivered to your desk helps so much and makes life simple.
4. My team and I have been able to connect far better. I get to spend some quality time with them (including my partner) even though it means catching up over a smoke or a coffee.
5. Work is done faster. As opposed just trying to figure out what my seniors are doing and when they will review my work, I get to finalise the product together. Learning and reviewing are faster.
6. It’s helped me with my anxiety as well. My counsellor had told me that going to office and interacting with like minded people will help. She was so right. Earlier, I just wouldn’t no what to do when I wanted to take a break. Just ended up smoking in my room.
This has really helped our team perform well.
