BThere’s no way you’ll survive in any field of law with poor logical and reasoning abilities not even as a paralegal. And for becoming a paralegal you don’t require a law degree, but there’s practically no scope for them in India anyway. If you’re still stubborn about this, go beg some senior advocates to let you work in their office. Be prepared to work for free at first because you have zero experience, and even after that, don’t expect much pay. Honestly, you’d be better off sticking to your own profession use your BTech degree, build some actual skills, and get a real jobBThere’s no need to keep a lawyer on retainer just for will execution. It’s a one time service, not an ongoing legal need. You can hire a lawyer for drafting and executing the will by paying fixed fee. Retainers are useful for businesses or individuals who need continuous legal services, not for something as straightforward as executing a will.BBetter? Sure. But perfect? Never. No matter what system you create, as long as humans are involved, corruption, bias, and power plays will exist.BYes, the public sees it as “open and shut,” but the law doesn’t work on public outrage it works on technicalities and evidences. CCTV footage? Sure, but was it legally obtained? Was the chain of custody maintained? Was the accused actually driving or can his lawyer argue that someone else was at the wheel? Was he tested for alcohol immediately, or did procedural delays “accidentally” mess that up? These are the loopholes that good lawyers exploit, and bad investigators (police) allow to exist.BAdvocate here,
There’s no simple black-and-white answer to your question because the legal system isn’t built on emotions or morality it’s built on due process. To truly understand why defense lawyers fight hard even for those accused of the worst crimes, you need to understand how the entire system functions.
Defense lawyers are not just necessary; they are absolutely critical to justice. A strong defense ensures that even if an accused person is convicted, the conviction is airtight and won’t collapse on appeal due to procedural errors or weak representation. If you remove the right to a proper defense, you invite wrongful convictions, police overreach, and a complete breakdown of the legal process.
Your uncle’s frustration stems from a misunderstanding of how justice works. His job as a cop is to catch suspects; the prosecution’s job is to prove guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. The defense’s role is to ensure every legal safeguard is followed. If the prosecution builds a solid case and the evidence is strong, the accused will be convicted despite the defense’s efforts making that conviction nearly bulletproof against appeal.
If you truly want justice, you should want strong defense lawyers in the system. Because without them, wrongful convictions skyrocket, corrupt cops go unchecked, and “justice” turns into a system where anyone can be thrown away based on public outrage rather than facts.
BFirstly, understand that the defense of insanity under Section 22 of the BNS is strictly applicable only to individuals suffering from severe mental disorders that impair their ability to comprehend the nature and consequences of their actions. In the Pune case, the intoxication was voluntary, and as per Section 24 of BNS, voluntary intoxication does not absolve criminal liability. I suggest you refer to Section 24 BNS for a clearer understanding of its legal implications.BThe court fees for filing the case would be minimal, but the advocate’s fees vary. You don’t have to personally send a legal notice; your advocate will draft it and send it via registered post with acknowledgment due and through email. You can connect with me if you need further assistance.BAdvocate here,Firstly, you will have to send them a legal notice, and if they still don’t refund your money, you can file a case before the consumer court.
BYes, you are right that it’s unfair, but the fact is that the entire crypto and P2P ecosystem is a grey area, and P2P transactions make it even worse. Since you are the receiver of stolen money, you are now part of the scam, and the burden of proof lies on you to prove otherwise and good luck with that.
Even if you take the matter to court, the court may order your account to be unfreeze but could still place the disputed amount under lien until the case is resolved. If the investigation clears you, only then will they release your account.That’s why the easiest way out is what I already mentioned. Also, people are getting arrested for this, so stay safe and avoid engaging in such transactions.
BAdvocate here,The easiest way out of this is to send your advocate on your behalf to the police station and resolve the matter by submitting proof of transactions along with an application requesting the unfreezing of your account and issuing an NOC to your bank for its release. You may also have to return the disputed amount to the complainant.
Remember, do not visit the police station alone.Alternatively, you can file an application before the concerned court to obtain a favorable order for unfreezing your account.
BLegally speaking, wearing black badges as a form of protest is protected under Article 19(1)(a) & (b) of the Constitution (freedom of speech & peaceful assembly).
