2. Overview of the Law Firm / Organization:

law firm is whole different from what I practiced in my internship period i.e, I
practiced under advocate and consultant Ms. Hema Goel ,Rohini District Court ,
office in 102 , Vardhman Grand plaza sector 3 , Rohini . Having experience of
over 14 years in criminal , matrimonial, and civil matters litigation.
Area of practice
Litigation: Representing clients in civil and commercial disputes, including
mediation.
Criminal Law: Defending individuals or corporations in criminal investigations and
trials.
3. Responsibilities:
Mainly responsibilities assigned to read and go through over the case files to look
after the facts. To interact with clients in court itself who have their date of
hearing. To Attend court hearings and trials, assisting attorneys by taking notes,
observing courtroom proceedings, and preparing witness outlines. Example:
"Regularly attended court sessions, where I observed cross-examinations and
helped attorneys prepare witness outlines and courtroom exhibits." To make
notes on given case file about the majorly facts , sections and laws used .

4. Legal Research and Analysis:

The legal research that was assigned to me only to find out the sections , articles
and provisions that are used in a particular type of case file viz. criminal cases and
to do research on those sections , articles and provision and laws are
implemented like IPC , CRPC etc. and to analysis them and discuss with my
advocate about those what I researched and learned .
For example in one of the case my senior assigned me a task to do research in one
of her case regarding attempt to murder (section 307 IPC ) that whether it is true
to the fact to be applied in the particular case or not to research on this statute ,
similar to these kind of work where assigned to me In my internship period.
Through these research assignments, I gained significant exposure to legal
research techniques, improved my ability to interpret statutes and case law, and
developed a deeper understanding of the application of legal principles in
practice. This experience has sharpened my legal analytical skills and prepared me
for future legal challenges and my research skills.

5. Document Preparation:
Drafting any legal documents in courts and case files are taught to me in detail.
For example once I were taught how to draft the cancellation of non- bailable
warrant in court . once my senior gave me opportunity to fill the bail bond in one
of her case in which the bail was to be requested to grant to her client . while
drafting the petition of any of the new case i witnessed the drafting in her case.
6. Courtroom and Client Interaction:
On regular basis I experienced the court proceeding as there were date of hearing
of my senior . she always gave me opportunity to attend those with her. Along
with her cases I did observed the other proceeding going in the court itself of
other advocates like arguments , observed the process of witness in the cases ,
the judge giving orders, judgements, how people holding trust towards the judge
and fighting for justice day by day . most of the court proceeding I attended with
my senior advocate cases majorly like how she is interacting with judge , doing
interim arguments with opposite attorney , with her clients. Maximum of the
court proceeding I witnessed in the criminals courts only along with civil and
family matters in courts.
In criminal courts I saw how people are begging for justice who are the victims ,
how they are holding trust with the court , their advocates that they will provide
them path to get justice from judge, also the accused persons who committed
crime how they are defending themselves .
In civil courts how the families are fighting among themselves , how two married
people are trying to separate each other fighting for divorce , children are coming
to courts along with their parents staying in such environment , husband and wife
are fighting for the custody of the child etc .
The reality which I saw in the courts were whole different from the expectations ,
came to know the reality of courts, the working , the infrastructure. The judge
gives next date of hearing in a particular case in a gap of 1-2 months . In some of
the cases I saw observed case is being continued from many years they are just
getting next dates instead of justice .
Along with the court proceeding I also had an opportunity that my senior gave me
in my internship that whenever she was endaulged in any of her case in different
court she always told me represents as an Proxy council on behalf of her in the
court in front of judge , sometimes to take the next date , to ask for the pass over
or else work in court so that I can learn how to represent yourself and interaction
with judge also.
Not only the court proceeding I also did some client interaction. Regularly in
internship period I interacted with clients . on the day of hearing the clients of my
senior advocates who were present in the courts. I communicated with her clients
asking them about their facts of the case. Through that I got to know the reality of
life how people’s life changed when they were victimised in a crime in their life,
also the accused persons ( some of them are ashamed of their action ; while some
of them are unbothered as it is in their nature only). I interacted with so many
clients people in court itself.
If any new case or client would come to my senior advocate I always first
interacted with them. Asking them about their facts , problems, the reason of
getting consultant by her.
For example: I interacted with one of her new client which was about the wife in a
marriage come along with her 5 year old daughter and 3 year old son. The
problem she shared was that her husband used to beat her on regular basis also
the in-laws used to taunts her about the dowry , mental crueatly , her in-laws
denied to give her entry in the matrimonial house as she was out with her
children. While discussing her problem with me she got emotional i was shocked
to her story how she is struggling with all those problem in her 6 year of marriage.
She wanted to get solution regarding her problems , she simply demanded about
the petition to file regarding DOMESTIC VOILENCE.

7. Learning Outcomes:

The only learning outcome I got to known in my internship period firstly was only
the how to be responsible in your life, time punctuality , decency , productivity in
schedule , hand on experience. Communication in legal and court language. I
learned the documents that are required in a case file, series of documents, how
to interact with clients , how to deal with loads of work, reading a file, research
work, drafting , learning practical knowledge through court proceedings etc are
the legal knowledge I gained from internship period.
Professional outcome I came to know how we can get so much respect in court
when we are working even as an intern only. The productivity, opportunities,
social interactions, building confidence mainly, decency. I only gained from this
internship only learning more and more on daily basis . I got to know basic
documentation work done in courts , how the judiciary system of India works,
working of courts.
By all these I hope I can apply these all knowledge in my future also learn more in
my upcoming internships in making my future brighter.

CONCLUSION : as doing internship in Rohini court district ,Delhi I have gained so

much of knowledge and also looking forward for more of that in higher courts.
As I see myself in next 5 year as a judiciary aspirant to become a judge as its my
dream.
