Summary

I have experience in legal research and documentation; during my tenure as a Legal Intern at Prudentia Law Chambers, I honed my skills in case analysis and team collaboration. I drafted multiple legal documents, including written submissions, replies to notices, and a writ petition, thus contributing to high-profile cases. I consistently met tight deadlines. I showcased my analytical prowess during the course of my internship. I am a diligent and hard-working law student with knowledge of legal research and drafting. I have also been working as a research assistant with Professor Karan Kataria during which I have gained experience in policy research. I have also gained proficiency in analyzing complex reports and journal articles and synthesizing the same in research papers. During my internship at Justlaw Advocates, I worked on matters involving energy disputes, property, financial, and contractual matters, further enhancing my knowledge of the law. I assisted the associates and the partners with drafting legal documents such as affidavits, and written submissions. I was also part of the alternate dispute redressal team and got to witness conciliation proceedings.
