The youngsters in this profession must bear in mind that it would be harmful for them to depend on touts and even remain dependent on their seniors for a long time. In most of the cases it is seen that the seniors do not allow their juniors to conduct easy cases where winning a case is guaranteed. They exploit the labour and intelligence of their juniors and prevent them by applying allsort of pressure tactics to keep them under their sway. The newcomer therefore should be cautious while selecting a senior for their help. They should also carefully plan to select a special branch for their practice and should not indulge in a branch which does not suit their taste and do not attract clintage.
If a senior does not pay sufficient amount for maintenance to a junior then the junior must keep in mind to remain financially sound from other sources for his livlyhood, at least for five years or so. He should collect all types of formats of pleadings and applications and prepare notes of rulings on different subjects and learn carefully the art of drafting. Frequent changes in rules and regulations are also required to be noted. In the beginning no big library can be maintained but basic law books with commentries of eminent authors must be purchased. Collection of every information through computer networking can be cheaper and most helpful. Even when no work is left in a day with you, make it a habit to attend court every day and carefully watch the proceedings of the court and note the specialities of senior counsel which influence and convince the mind of the judges. The art of cross examining a witness is another important factor to make a successful lawyer. Remember that the good conduct to the court and even to the witnesses of other sides is always helpful in a long run. Patience and coolmindness even in adverse circumstances, will always give you an edge over your adversary.
