Extremely unprofessional. People who don’t get jobs elsewhere go to Saraf. Obviously something is better than nothing - hence go to Saraf then move to some Tier 1 firm after a year.
I second that. Avoid Mumbai. Moreover, Mumbai doesn’t give internships to non-NLUs unless you have a contact. My contact at Saraf straight up told me that for recruitment, they don’t look beyond top 4 NLUs and only if you’re “exceptional” as a non-NLU kid, you may have a chance.
What do you expect? Its run by an ungrateful fellow who bit the very hand that fed him. Led to the demise of one of the most warm hearted persons ever. Him and the rest of his band of selfish backstabbing bottom feeders.
I think Saraf is a Band II firm but will be a Band I firm in 20 years. Saraf does not have any statesmen or highly regarded individuals, but it has a number of Band 1 and Band 2 lawyers.
What do you think is a tier-1? The one which is considered by rankings, the one which pays well, the one which is engaged by good clients for good transactions. - Saraf ticks all the boxes.
The only caveat is that some of their practice areas are yet to be regarded as a tier 1 by rankings. But, do not think that it cannot be called a 'tier-1' firm.
Any other teams to consider - please help.
