What Is This Opportunity?
Advocate Asmi Desai practices litigation before the Bombay High Court, associated with the Chamber of Senior Advocate Rajiv Chavan. This opportunity gives Legal Interns and Junior Associates direct, daily exposure to Bombay High Court practice and courtroom work, a genuinely hands-on entry point for students and young lawyers serious about building a litigation career in Mumbai.
About the Role
This posting is open to both Legal Interns and Junior Associates, so it suits candidates at different stages, whether you’re still in law school or already practising and looking to move into a more litigation-focused role. The role centres on practice before the Bombay High Court and other courts and tribunals across Mumbai, with a minimum tenure of six months and immediate joining preferred.
What Will the Role Involve?
This isn’t a desk-only research role. You’ll need to handle:
- Strong drafting and legal research work
- Daily visits and court work before the Bombay High Court and other courts and tribunals
- Independent management of matters, including maintaining case trackers and monitoring deadlines
- Coordinating filings across multiple ongoing matters
- Reliable organisational skills and close attention to detail
The emphasis on daily court visits and independent matter management sets this apart from a typical internship. It’s built for someone ready to take real ownership of casework, not just observe from the sidelines.
Who Should Apply?
This role suits you if you have:
- A genuine interest in litigation, not just a general interest in law
- Strong drafting and legal research skills
- The ability to work independently and manage competing deadlines
- A proactive, detail-oriented approach to your work
- A strong work ethic and willingness to take ownership of assigned matters
How to Apply for This Role
- Prepare your CV.
- Email it to adv.asmidesai@gmail.com.
- Use the subject line “Application – Legal Intern” or “Application – Junior Associate,” depending on which role you’re applying for.
