First impression. The first day, formalities etc.

On my first day I was welcomed to the office and introduced to the whole office staff and I was also told to submit a project on any current issue. The infrastructure of the office was nice and comfortable.

Main tasks

Our main task was to assist the advocates working there. We were given particular cases to read and to prepare their briefs. We were also made to do a lot of research-related to the cases. In the court, our major task was to keep an eye on the item numbers and to observe the court proceedings. I also used to get a legal proposition on which I was made to research.

What did you do to chill?

Hanging out with co-interns.

No Stipend

Biggest Lessons:

The biggest lesson of this internship was that there is a lot to learn but one must have that zeal and enthusiasm to learn otherwise no one has time to waste on the people who are not interested. The internship is essential to all the students of Law so that people can have a practical knowledge of the law. What you are not learning in law school that you will learn from Internship and its totally about the practical knowledge which you don’t get in school.
