sir i am law graduate. prafticed for 2 years.after marriage i wasnt allowed to praftice.Now after 35 years i intend to practice.Attended few interviews, but now age bar,no experience in any firm,and they mostly hire young freshers,interns.I dont have any clue what to do for future.but i want to work instead of sitting idel.what kind of job can i start where i can make sone money? either in law or other short term course which has prospects?

Ans: I'm sorry ...are you saying after 35 yrs you want to restart law practice!?

In order to practice the applicant must have attained the age of 21 years. There is no upper age limit for admission as an advocate, as affirmed by the Supreme Court in the case of Indian Council of Legal Aid and Advice vs. Bar Council of India (AIR 1995 Supreme Court 691).12 Feb 2024

Start representing people in simple matters as a standalone advocate, decide whether you want to specialise in Civil OR Criminal law... also know effective 1st July 2024 the IPC,Code of Criminal Procedure & Indian Evidence Act has been replaced by the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanchita, Bharatiya Nagarika Suraksha Sanhita, Bharatiya Sakshya Adhinyam...

Now that's a task to learn all this over again every legal professional and Judge's to will have to come in tune with this.. Are you ready for the grind.!?

I need career guidance, I am a recent graduate of my law degree but I was too immature to take that seriously at that time I kept thinking I will change my career from this and I kind of wasted my whole 5 years now i want to persue my career in corporate law only, but I am not able to find any internship of law firm. Can you guide me what should I do? Should I take any short course or what?

Ans: Transitioning into corporate law requires a focused strategy. Start by assessing your background and setting clear goals. Enhance your knowledge with targeted short courses, certifications, and industry seminars. Gain practical experience through internships, volunteer work, or freelance projects in legal departments—even if traditional law firm internships are scarce. Expand your network by engaging with professional organizations, alumni, and online platforms. Finally, tailor your resume and cover letter to highlight relevant coursework and experiences while addressing any gaps. Staying informed about industry trends and remaining persistent will help you break into corporate law. All the Best for your Prosperous Future.

I am btech graduate and have good industry IT experience in development in TCS with 15 lpa, but parents pressurized to take government job , and i got a government job of junior assistant at pay level 3 but i am not liking the job as there is no respect and our senior ask to fill the water bottle , i want to switch to IT for my future? Still i confused?

Ans: I am quite surprised - "our senior ask to fill the water bottle". Simply deny doing that. Do your work seriously for which you are paid. Give departmental exam for promotion. You can prepare yourself for Indian civil service exam. Do not leave Govt. job.

Career

I am 58 + years old who retired from government service after working for 36 years. I had done M.E mechanical and worked in the marine field. I am a pensioner who is financially sound and with no liabilities. I have a good fitness routine in the morning as well as in the evening , however I find it difficult to pass my time in the day and want to make it meaningful. I am done with my existing skills and keen to learn some totally new concepts and acquire skills specially in areas such as sustainable energy specially green hydrogen, solar , ethanol blending , EV etc. I may like to become a consultant or maybe start my own small venture in future to keep myself busy. I am ready to devote ample time. If nothing works out atleast I would have acquired knowledge in areas which interest me. How do I go about acquiring the new skills.

Ans: The best way to acquire skill is to see NPTEL videos. Its free. If you want certificates then you have to give exam. Cost is very less. Normally professors from IITs teach these courses and you will get certificates from IITs.
