Pradeep Kumar Jain: Dabbling in the Legal Space Since 2002

A lawyer (also known as an advocate, counsel, or counsellor) is a licenced practitioner who gives legal advice and representation to others. A lawyer in today’s world may be young or old, male, or female. Almost one-third of all lawyers are under the age of 35. Women make up nearly half of law students today, and they may one day outnumber men in the profession.rnNew tools can be of good assistance to shorten the length of litigation apart from saving time in other activities like travelling etc. The responsibilities a lawyer can be painstaking. In an interview with Insights Success a business solutions magazine, Pradeep Kumar Jain, Managing Partner of Singhania & Co. LLP shares with us his views of being a lawyer and what goes in being a good lawyer. Mentioned below are the highlights of the interview: Brief our audience about your journey as a lawyer. Indeed, it was an interesting journey because I never wanted to be a lawyer though my mother used to say that I would be one, due to my argumentative skill. In fact, I enrolled in law after my enrolment in Company Secretaryship and completed my law and CS together. In 2002, I came to Mumbai and fortunately met a partner of Singhania & Co, LLP who advised me to practice as a lawyer instead of a company secretary. In one sentence I can say, “legal profession was not my choice but of the almighty and that’s why I got good name and fame because it was his choice not mine.” How to create an impact in this fast-paced business world? Though the legal profession is considered a noble profession, it has all ingredients of the service industry. Therefore, delivering good or excellent services to your client and honestly protecting his/her interests are some of the few tools in your hand to leave a positive impact on your client. I can understand that in litigation, more than internal, external factors affects the performance of lawyers but still, he/ she can give comfort to his/ her client by providing information/ outcome on time instead of allowing his/ her client to chase him.
