FIRST IMPRESSION

The phrase “first impression is the best impression”  has been proved right in case of this office. The employees including the seniors are too down to earth, sincere and honest with their opinions.

They helped me settle down in the well maintained office and made me feel at ease at the end of first day itself.

MAIN TASKS

My first few days were fixed for introductory and in depth explanation of various concepts and procedure relating to land and other such property law related issues.

As days went by, I was asked to summarise the facts of the case and make a draft of the various issues involved.

BEST THINGS ?

This office has given me an insight on the fact that there are many wonderful aspects attributed to the legal field other than courts.

The best of all, this office knows to the fullest on how to treat its employees and the customers. The employees have a friendly group lunch day on every Saturday .

They are also taken for trips every 6 months at the expense of the office. Each and every employee is given his/her own cabin and there is no discrimination among them. A totally different atmosphere of friendliness and cooperation prevails in this office.
