Law Counselling

Dear Student, Not all institutes can offer a one year programme. UGC has set some criteria - such as : (From the UGC website) (I) Every university desirous of starting one year LL. M. programme under these Guidelines shall establish a Centre for Post-Graduate Legal Studies (CPGLS) which will have a dedicated team of senior teachers competent to guide post-graduate scholars including Ph.D. students. (ii) Post-Graduate education in law is to be offered only after fulfilling the minimum requirements in terms of faculty, infrastructure etc. Prescribed under these Guidelines. (iii) Admission to one-year LL. M. Degree shall be done through an All India Admission Test conducted every year by the Universities individually or by a group of universities collectively. (iv) While reducing the duration to one year, universities must ensure that steps may be taken to make the course rigorous to maintain academic quality and standards. Towards this end, the programme is to be organized on a trimester basis ensuring at least twelve weeks of teaching/research/practical in each trimester. The switch from the two year to one year programme will involve syllabus changes, logistics changes etc. So it will take some time for all institutes to eventually move to a one year pattern. The two year pattern will still remain in niche areas, since it allows for a higher degree of specialisation and the institutes offering it will have a higher level of autonomy in terms of syllabus, admissions etc. Any one with a Bachelor degree in law can apply for LL. M, provided the applicant should meet the minimum marks criteria for the qualifying degree stipulated by the concerned university. The branches of law, wherein LL. M being commonly offered are Criminal law, Constitutional law, Cyber law, International law, etc. There are multiple universities from where you can do 1-year LL. M. Like IILM University Gurugram offers with Moot Court Internship, Seminar, Workshops, Experiential Learning along with Inter-Disciplinary Curriculum.

Dear Student,
If you are considering law school, you are taking the initial step toward a potentially rewarding career in the legal profession. A legal education can be one of the most challenging and fulfilling endeavours an individual will pursue in their lifetime. There are many potential reasons on why one may choose to attend law school. Learning the skills of a lawyer and then using them in practice is the most common reason. However, some may simply be interested in the complexities of the law and seek to learn more about it. Still others are motivated to enter law school to effect change through government, interest groups, or other non-profit organizations. The legal profession is generally rewarding both personally and financially. A person with a background in legal education can, in additional to practicing law, turn to other fields such as teaching, business, and advocacy. ELIGIBILTY CRITERIA-

Dear Student,
Yes, being a lawyer is a good career, provided one sticks to basics and ethics and have true professional attitude. A client comes to a lawyer, who in their eyes, are capable of delivering positive results for which they are spending money on him. If the lawyer shows interests in money but is not diligent enough, he is a cheat. Before long he would be known more as a money extorter. The lawyer should be a shelter (after he receives money) and should not be seen as a butcher in action and always asking for money. There is common complaint against lawyers. According to them, the lawyers adopt the dishonest means which are the result of contaminating effects of the criminals they represent. If one has a disease of listening to conscience, he is not the best person to survive as professional. Here people are required to be dedicated, result-oriented, ruthless and always updated. Basically a good lawyer remembers the ratios of landmark judgments and follows the boundary conditions set by those judgments and immediately can guess the possible outcome of the matter that he is taking up. The matter is, why he will accept the brief and what he will say to his clients as prospect of the case? Here is a big question of honesty involved. Ethics, basics everything comes into the picture. Dedication and professional honesty should say the final word, in stead of unalloyed extraction of money. If you want to kick start a successful career in law, it is important to get admission into a good law college. There are a number of top law colleges in India that you can apply for, but you should know the admission process. Most of the colleges or universities that offer courses in law have their own entrance examinations. One of the most recognised examinations is CLAT which stands for the Common Law Entrance Test. The test score of CLAT is accepted by major universities as well as law colleges in India. There are multiple universities from where you can do 5-year LL.B. Like IILM University Gurugram offers BBA LL.B. & B.A. LL.B. & LL. M. with Moot Court Internship, Seminar, Workshops, Experiential Learning along with Inter-Disciplinary Curriculum.

Dear Student,
The best way for a 12th student to prepare to become a lawyer is by taking all of the standard college-prep classes: English, foreign language, math, Science, and social studies. Don't neglect the maths and science. English is important because you need to be able to write expository prose concisely and accurately. You also need to be able to read complicated statutes and court decisions. Foreign language is mostly important because learning a foreign language will make you more attractive to top colleges. Its also a good discipline for developing your intellect. Maths is necessary because the bottom line to almost everything lawyers do regardless of whether its litigation or a corporate transaction is a dollar figure. You have to be able to read a balance sheet.
You have to be able to understand how to calculate the present value of a future income stream. You have to have a basic understanding of inferential statistics. Taking math classes is doubly important if you plan to go into corporate law. Science is important because it will teach you the mental rigor that you need to have in order to become a lawyer. Learning how to think and reason is vital. Taking Science classes is doubly important if you plan to go into patent law. There are multiple universities from where you can do Law Courses, like IILM University Gurugram offers with Moot Court Internship, Seminar, Workshops, Experiential Learning along with Inter-Disciplinary Curriculum.

Law and engineering have different academic expectations. Engineering degrees have a fairly decent workload, but a very high expectation for fluency with complex thought. Engineering is a 4 year degree where 80% of what you do is math related (statics, dynamics, thermodynamics, applied maths, materials Science, chemistry, physics, etc. ). With these classes you generally can't work harder to make up for lack of intellect. You either have it or you don't. I know multiple people who repeated classes numerous times with heaps of study and kept failing and then dropped out. Sounds tough. But in Law, not complex exams (in a Science way), but there is an expectation of extensive study and the ability to combine and analyse all of this data in to coherent results in a very short amount of time. It's similar to medicine in a way. In fact a lot of the engineers would admire the law students for their commitment to study. The reason is that most engineering students are the people that cruised through high school and didnt have a real work ethic. When it comes to law, I would prefer that the person had read many cases and be able to evaluate the best path forward balancing many factors and for Business School, yes that's much easier.
