Hello!

Iā€™m a final year law student in Delhi,India with good grades & a great attitude towards learning. My internships have been focused on Commercial Litigation, Insolvency & Arbitration.

Being a neuro divergent queer individual in this field is extremely taxing & anxiety inducing. I had been planning to pursue an LLM abroad to never have to work in spaces like this but life ( incl. financial constraints ) had other plans. I am now planning to build up my career in Delhi itself.

So far my experience with redacted Tier 2 Law Firms ( Internships) has been borderline homophobic. I honestly cannot tell if the work environment is bad towards freshers / interns in general or just specifically towards queer folks.

If anyone in the field of arbitration / other queer lawyers can help me around how to approach these work spaces or enlist queer friendly work spaces, that would be great.
