Corporate Law Practice Center (CLP)

India is a litigating country and the amount of litigation taking place in the Indian Courts each day is enormous. The legal fraternity has so much to offer to people educated in law. The diverse nature and the multiplicity in the areas of work makes it one of the most reputed and acclaimed professions across the globe. Lawyers are considered to work in private practice when they're part of a firm with two or more attorneys, or they have a solo practice. Lawyers employed in a law firm might work as partners who share the firm's profits and risks, or as associates—attorneys who have not yet reached full partnership status. Law firms also employ numerous other legal professionals, including legal secretaries and paralegals, law clerks and litigation support professionals.

Law firm professionals are charged with the onerous task of tracking pretty much every minute of their time so the firm can bill those minutes to their clients. Law firms frequently impose high monthly and yearly billable hour requirements upon partners, associates, and paralegals, making law firm employment among the most demanding of legal practice environments. Law firms are often considered notorious for requiring long work hours from their employees to raise revenues. Working in a law firm has its unique benefits and challenges, and significant differences exist between employments in a small firm versus employment in a large firm. Each has its own unique culture and work requirements.

Corporate Law Practice Center is an initiative that Lloyd Law College is coming up to develop and train students for Morden corporate world and enhance the knowledge and practical skills of corporate law and subjects related thereto. CLP is established to enhance and support students interested in joining the corporate sector of the legal fraternity. This Cell will function as an integral part of the institution. The function of CLP is envisioned at ensuring through teaching and training to provide assistance in removing the primary hurdle of getting internships with top Law Firms in India and abroad.
