        Hello! I really need some advice regarding Carrer options in law. I’ve been a lawyer for 3 years and I’m really struggling to make a stable income.

        At the moment I’m working under a senior but I hardly get paid and even if I do it’s once in 3-4 months and that too not above 2-4k if lucky. I wish to join a startup or law firm but they are none available in my city and I can’t move cities unless can be done remotely. Or become a Departmental lawyer for a bank or any other but I heard you need 5-6 year experience and connections.

        I’m always keen to learn and grow and if you have any suggestions for a first generation lawyer to kickstart their carrer please let me know.

          For the bank, you’d need to crack the exam. You can also opt for SEBI law officer. Good places for steady income

              These exams have an upper age limit of 30 i think. And I’m going to be 30 in couple of months. Any other suggestions?

                  Have you given CLAT for LLM? If you get good scores, many governmental orgs like BHEL can recruit you and they give a pretty decent package too I think.

                      I haven’t. My circumstances have been such that law was not my first priority but due to certain events i had to get into it. So I don’t even have a 5 year degree. I have a 3 year degree. But with time I have started to grow into it and do wish to make it work. Do i still stand any chance anywhere?
