Careers
The chambers takes law students as interns and advocates as associates. Applications are accepted through the year.
Internships
For students reading for a law degree. An intern reads the papers in live civil matters, helps with searches at the registry and the land records office, prepares drafts under supervision, and attends court with an advocate. The work is on the civil side only — property and title, matrimonial and family matters, contracts, succession, tenancy, recovery of money and civil appeals.
Associate positions
For advocates enrolled with a Bar Council. An associate carries drafting, conferences, and appearances in the courts at Kolkata, and travels elsewhere in India for key matters. Familiarity with West Bengal land records and registration practice is useful, as is working comfort in Bengali and Hindi alongside English.
What to send
Send a curriculum vitae with the form beside this. In the box for a line or two about yourself, it helps to say:
- for an internship, the year of study and the dates you are free;
- for an associate position, the date of enrolment and the courts you have appeared in.
How applications are handled
Applications are read and kept on file. The chambers will be in touch if there is a suitable opening. What you send is used only to consider your application, and is covered by the Privacy Policy.
