Are Gurcaran's posts the best in the game? Probably not (on a global scale, not at the Indian level - at the Indian level, he's doing very well for a self-starter). Are they interesting enough and error-free to function as a simple means to get his firm's name out and hopefully transform into prospective work? Probably yes.
Forgive my combative comment, but you, unkind Sir, are the classic case of a Kupamanduka. Rise above this petty attitude and let a man earn his living and do good work. There are many more expletives that I would like to direct your way, but that would not be helpful to anyone.
I haven't spoken with Guracaran in a few months, but I have known him since before law school, through law school, while he was at CAM, and after he started his outfit. It's a small outfit with ambitions to grow and do good work. I have seen Gurcaran take on a wide variety of work, and his legal acumen is sound and continues to grow. Super at networking, management, and client service - skills that many Indian lawyers desperately need to develop.
This is not at Gurcaran's request, and I would understand if people assume it is/ or typed by him - I do not care. However, it's not enjoyable to witness unnecessary commentary from people who haven't worked with the individual, and I felt obliged to speak out.
To the original poster - as I said, it's no CAM and is a small outfit, but an ex-CAM SA runs it. If you want to work at a small place, consider interning and giving it a shot - no other way to figure out the mettle of a new, small firm.
