I first met him in court. He took us to all courts of district court and told the function and working off each court separately. He told me the basic concepts of the court.

Main tasks

I learnt how to argue a case, your way to argue with judge, your way to ask question from witness, witness cross examination and many more basics of a lawyer in court. I met with many other lawyers through them.

In court his 3 associates also work so it is very easy for you to get work. In office I worked with their assistants and that was one of the best part of my internship.

They all are very young and supportive. You can ask them anything anytime.

In office I usually worked on files of next day case and prepares their brief. He also told me to research on new criminal law (amendment) act, 2013 and to make briefs of cases.
