The minimum commitment required is two months, ensuring that interns get sufficient time to engage deeply with projects and understand the intricacies of corporate legal operations. This duration will also allow interns to participate in ongoing cases and contracts, from initiation to completion, thus gaining a more comprehensive view of the legal processes within a business setting.
Eligibility Criteria
The internship is open to students who are currently pursuing an LL.B. degree. Applicants should possess a strong foundation in legal principles and demonstrate an eagerness to apply academic knowledge to practical situations. A good understanding of contracts, company law, and other relevant legislation will be advantageous.
