Amazing looking office with separate cubicles for the associates.

The interns sit together around a long table. Nalini Maám sits in her office.

No first day formalities as such. You will have to go meet Maám and introduce yourself.

We had little work.

We read cases and at times Madam would ask us to research on things.

If you are lucky you get to travel with her to the High Court.

The Associates don’t pay attention to the interns. You will have to approach them for work.
