District court is the place any law student must first intern at although students usually neglect lower court internships. The basics of civil and criminal law can be mastered only through a good civil and criminal law internship.

You should first decide which area of law you want to intern under this time. You can approach any district lawyer practicing in the respective area of law who is experienced.

Hi,

if the the internship is in delhi then dont miss out the Tis Hazari court a lot to learn from there and do visit the saket court after that.

we see a complete change in time though positive

Good luck for your internship.
