Lawyer

Dear Student, Moot Court is arranged for giving practical training and guidance to the law students about the court practice. The students have to argue as if they are arguing before real court. The students are given marks by observing their performance. 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.

Dear Student, Solicitors have a more stable income but the top barristers get paid more than most top solicitors; although the average solicitor may be paid more. 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.

Dear student, Most lawyers are likely employees, either of law firms or of corporations (in-house Lawyers). These will be paid a salary, like any other employee. Beyond that, partners in a law firm are generally divided into two categories, salaried partners and equity partners. The former usually have more certainty over their income (they receive a fixed share of the firms income or profits as a salary), but have a greater say in/ responsibility for the running of the firm than employees. The latter are effectively the owners of the firm, having a share of the equity. They generally have the most control over how the firm is run, and draw their income from the profits the firm makes. If the firm isn't profitable, they don't get paid. Some lawyers also work individually, these will either be as sole traders, I. e. self-employed status, or perhaps they will incorporate a limited company in which they own all the shares. In this scenario, the former eat what they kill, so everything they earn is theirs, whilst the latter will need to draw a salary and/or dividends from the company.

Dear Student, A lawyer can serve in several roles. Here are some examples, but in practice most lawyers do more than one of these, sometimes even simultaneously:
1. A Lawyer is an Advocate
Here, by advocate, I mean somebody who tries to advance their clients interests in some way, typically involving (at least to some extent) persuasion. The classic example is in court, especially in something like closing arguments: a lawyer advocates for their client by persuading the judge or jury that their client deserves to win their case.
2. A Lawyer is a Counselor
This is more behind closed doors. The role of a counselor isn't to persuade, its to advise. Often, a client calls up a lawyer and says: So and so just happened. I want to end up with an outcome like such and such. What are my options? This is the typical case where a lawyer steps into a counseling role.
3. A Lawyer is a Mediator / Neutral Third Party
Additionally, there are alternative dispute resolution options that involve a private lawyer who serves in the role of a judge. The advantage over the court system is that its often cheaper.
4. NegotiatorAn advocate has to convince some authority on some point of law. A negotiator has to find an acceptable stopping point for two parties whose interests only partially overlap (if they overlap at all).
5. Guardian
From time to time, a lawyer ends up in custody of property, documents, information, or even people.

Dear student, A lawyer is a generic term and applies to a person who has received formal training in law at an undergraduate level and after having passed the requisite State examinations for admission as legal practitioner is entitled to practice law in that State. The areas of practice could be general or specialist, in which case additional qualifying examinations would be required. A prosecutor refers to any person who initiates a court action to take another party to court for the purpose of seeking appropriate punishment for committing a crime. Therefore a prosecutor's objective is to establish the defendant's guilt beyond reasonable doubt. A prosecutor is generally, but not always, employed by the State to seek appropriate sentences for individual who are in breach of the criminal law. Prosecutors usually have had formal legal training but they do necessarily need to be legally qualified to fulfill their role. For example, Police Officers and local councils may prosecute cases in lower courts where the criminal law or a council regulation respectively has been breached.

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, There are three categories of university where one can study law. The first option is the Government Law Colleges, the entry into which is based on the board examination marks. Most government colleges have done away with entrance tests especially for the five-year programme, so admissions to these colleges are based on cut-offs obtained in the Senior Secondary Board Examination. These colleges offer both a three-year and a five-year programme. The three-year course is ideal for graduates from any discipline and the five-year course is pursued by students after completion of 10 + 2 examination. The second choice is to study law in private law colleges; the selection is again based on the board examination marks. Some private colleges, however, conduct their own entrance tests and a few colleges use CLAT/ISAT scores to give admissions.

There is also another prestigious National Law School in Delhi which conducts its own admission test. The National Law Schools offer only a five-year course.
