Hey there,
Well, Campus Law Centre is a reputed institute in terms of law and is a name which everyone knows. It has produced great lawyers and also the standard of education is phenomenal.
The infrastructure is decent, its library is quite good and above all, it's a DU affiliated college.
Galgotias, on the other hand, is a very new institute and it not only focuses on law but other fields as well. Moreover, there have not been many law graduates passed out from this university. The overall setup for law is still under construction.
So, I would suggest in terms of faculty and the level of education, Campus Law Centre is way better than Galgotias. The university might turn out to be better in terms of the law in future, but as of now, one should not go for it.
Also, Campus Law Centre has its own advantages being a centre of attention of the Faculty of Law, Delhi University.

Hey there,
Well, both Symbiosis and Amity University are private institutes and are not very old in order of their establishments.
However, Symbiosis had a better reputation in past while Amity University is equally competing with it.
If you get a choice between these two, I would suggest you choose Symbiosis because it is comparatively an older college and also there have been a number of batches who have graduated and thus placements would be better here.
Also, the visiting faculty members include Mr. Ramjethmalani thus the exposure is better there.The infrastructure is more or less similar, but Amity is a newly established institute and it may turn out to be a good one, but let the batches graduate only then the true picture of it could be seen.
While as of now, Symbiosis stands at a better position in terms of placements and other accolades in its name.

Hey there,
As you want to go for law as a career, I would advise you to go for an integrated course offered BVP NLC. As there are traditional universities that may offer both 5-year and 3-year courses but the standard and level there are not up to the mark and besides, hardly any classes are taken up.
At Bundelkhand University also you would not get enough exposure that is needed owing to today's competitive environment.
So, I would advise you that for a better knowledge and exposure, please go for a college which has regular classes and also is UGC approved and the guidelines of BCI are also being adhered to which I doubt will be the case with Bundelkhand University's law programme.
And if you got to choose between these two then Bharati Vidyapeeth New Law College is a better option.

Hey there,
Becoming Mr. Ramjethmalani or Mr. Arun Jaitley takes nothing more than the devotion and discipline to the profession and above all an extensive experience.
To become a successful lawyer, you need to abide by the constitution of India as well as the Advocates act of India.
Beside this, you must not be the one committing professional misconduct thus work ethics are needed.
If you go through the works of Mr. Jethmalani or Mr. Jaitley, you can find no occasion where a professional misconduct took place.
Also, both have been ethical lawyers.
Thus, besides having knowledge of law, articulation ability is much required.
A successful lawyer is one who has strong ethics adhered to laws of land himself and also does nothing to detriment the law.
However, that does not mean defending an offender is wrong.
So, you need to be witty, must have tacts, honest to the profession, must have the knowledge and as Justice Frankfurter has laid down, you must follow the lamps of advocacy and also the principles of ethical lawyering as American Bar Association prescribes must be adhered to.

Hey there,
Well, lawyers practising consumer law and protection of consumers are not many as it comes within their ambits along with other fields of law.
However, for a lawyer to practice consumer law, you must be well versed in the consumer protection act and other basic laws for which you shall need a law degree. Also, the lawyer shall be requiring a specialization in consumer laws including other laws so that grievances are heard well.
Also, the procedural aspect and knowledge is very much needed so before independent practice and internships are advisable with lawyers dealing in this field so that the practical aspects are learnt.
Beside this, you just need a licence of practice by the Bar Council and you are ready to go.
Also, there are not many lawyers who do specialisation only in this field thus it would act as a benefit.

Hey there,
Well, practising business law does not require a rocket science. The process for practice is same as any lawyer would go through.
You need to have a valid degree and a valid licence by the Bar Council.
However, in order to become a good lawyer in this field, I would suggest having additional qualifications apart from just a law degree.
Also, a BBA stream along with law shall act as a benefit as you would have the knowledge of business aspects of firms and economy.
Also, you could do LLM in any of the business laws including contracts competition law, etc.
Also, CS along with law would be a combo which no one would be able to beat.
You can practice without them also, but yes having add-ons would always turn beneficial and to stand out of the crowd of lawyers, you need to have extraordinary attributes.
Thus, pursue BBA LLB+CS+LLM in business law and you are ready.

Hey.
After completing your LLB, you have an option to go for PG which may be an LLM or an MBA.
LLM includes a Master's degree in law which provides you a specialisation in certain laws and you get a Master's degree in those subjects. Also, you become eligible for UGC NET for academic purpose also.
Also, LLM fetches you the same advantage as an MD after MBBS in medical.
However, MBA is something which is preferred by a lot of students as it is a deadly combo these days. The corporate houses do prefer a law and MBA graduate and also your prospects of better offers increase.
It does make a lot of sense to go for MBA but from a premier institute only like IIM's in India and then abroad.
