April 26, 2025 at 8:41 amHello Everyone,I am an advocate, but right now I am not earning any money. I am 30 years old, and 6 years ago I completed my law since practicing, and at this age, I need to start earning, but I am struggling. I am trying to get a job in a finance company and also trying to join the panel of different companies, but I have not been successful. What should I do?

April 26, 2025 at 8:47 amJoin an office of somebody whoโs already established.If youโre first gen, the grind is hard and it will make you want to/actually quit.
If youโre up for non litigation roles, direct recruitment to ADJ.
Migrate to one of the commonwealth countries.
Appear in CLAT-PG and join some PSU
There might be more options which Iโm missing right now
And importantly, if you stay in litigation, remember that youโre in one of the most thankless professions, and it takes time to build your way up.

April 26, 2025 at 9:13 amSadly, friend, youโve got to choose your poison.Either work harder for the examination, or for litigation. Donโt put your feet in two boats, youโll sink.
Go all in on one.

April 26, 2025 at 9:22 amTakes a little longer than that to pay off, I suppose.Solicit cases from your own network of people and help them (genuinely). If youโre in higher courts, solicit from lower courts. If youโve tried and failed.. identify whatโs keeping you from it and keep trying unless you either succeed or quit.

April 26, 2025 at 8:58 amIt’ll be difficult to join a corporate with no prior experience but it’s not impossible the process can be frustratingly long but you can keep applying.On the other hand, if possible an additional course like masters or a diploma can be helpful (if it’s affordable for you).
Were you practicing independently or was working in a law firm?

April 26, 2025 at 9:44 amI don’t know much about MP but if you’re not in a metropolitan earning fast won’t be possible. The growth will be slow for you and you’ll have to be more patient because opportunities in tier 2 cities are generally quite less.-

April 26, 2025 at 1:50 pmHello,I understand your situation, and there are several strategies you could consider to start earning. You might explore teaching as a visiting faculty in law colleges or even schools for 11-12th grade or Engineering colleges. Additionally, creating a YouTube channel to guide viewers on legal topics can be a great platform to showcase your expertise.
Connecting with MSMEs or SMEs for retainership opportunities could also be beneficial. Lastly, reaching out to associations or trade unions might open doors for new collaborations.
Best of luck with your endeavors!
Best regards,

April 27, 2025 at 7:26 amNo, the number of clat aspirants was only 70k compared to 16 lakh for JEE. Even out of that 70k, barely 10k are serious and the rest just give clat as backup though we only have seats that can accommodate 3k most if we combine all NLUs-
WWisebro6812
OP
April 27, 2025 at 2:27 pmWho said 70,000 students are preparing for CLAT? In reality, CLAT isn’t that big. Behind the scenes, many local colleges are just turning their regular classrooms into law classes.In my city, colleges that used to offer BE (engineering) courses 10 years ago are now offering LLB 3-year programs instead.
Every year, the number of LLB colleges keeps increasing, and each college has around 200 seats.
