Why did you become a lawyer?
As I initially neglected my studies, I could not pursue other courses and felt that I could be a good lawyer if I pursued law. The Supreme Court justices and the advocates in India inspired me to become a lawyer. I pursued my courses sincerely and I had the privilege of learning under the guidance of committed teachers and studying in a college where the management is committed to quality education. I enjoyed my law school days, the debates and the discussions.
Do you enjoy practicing law? Why or why not?
I enjoy practicing law as it helped me receive recognition very early in life that could not have been possible if I pursued other professions. An advocate will keep learning as he masters many issues. This exposure to new things and challenges in the profession encourages me and keeps going.Advice
