The Problem: What Law Colleges & Internships Don’t Teach You
Most law students and young lawyers never get a real chance to learn legal drafting.
Law schools teach theory. Internships offer exposure, but not structured learning or feedback. Lawyers are too busy to explain why a clause or petition is written a certain way.
So you end up watching, copying, and guessing your way through drafting instead of learning it properly.
This gap creates a vicious cycle: ❌ No drafting skills lead to ❌ no opportunities which lead to ❌ no confidence, which lead to ❌ lost years and income.
Many bright law graduates and young lawyers spend 4–5 years wandering and wondering before they feel confident in their drafts losing nearly ₹6,00,000 in potential income and even client trust in that time.
Meanwhile, senior lawyers often struggle with positioning their expertise and leveraging freelance or digital platforms to expand their practice and income.
Worse, they lose faith in themselves and, too often, in the profession itself.
