Its objective is to provide lawyers with some background to understand what they can and cannot realistically expect from these products. This guide aims to give a reference point for small law practices in the EU

In 2020, the Ministry of Home Affairs established a committee led by Prof. (Dr.) Ranbir Singh, former Vice Chancellor of National Law University (NLU), Delhi. This committee was tasked with reviewing the three codes of criminal law. The primary objective of the committee was to propose comprehensive reforms to the country’s criminal laws in a manner that is both principled and effective.
The committee’s focus was on ensuring the safety and security of individuals, communities, and the nation as a whole. Throughout its deliberations, the committee aimed to uphold constitutional values such as justice, dignity, and the intrinsic value of each individual. Their goal was to recommend amendments to the criminal laws that align with these values and priorities.
Subsequently, in February, the committee successfully submitted its recommendations regarding amendments to the criminal law. These recommendations are intended to serve as a foundation for enhancing the current legal framework, promoting safety and security, and upholding the constitutional principles of justice, dignity, and the inherent worth of every individual.

Lifting the Corporate Veil. Power Point Presentationseri bangash
"Lifting the Corporate Veil" is a legal concept that refers to the judicial act of disregarding the separate legal personality of a corporation or limited liability company (LLC). Normally, a corporation is considered a legal entity separate from its shareholders or members, meaning that the personal assets of shareholders or members are protected from the liabilities of the corporation. However, there are certain situations where courts may decide to "pierce" or "lift" the corporate veil, holding shareholders or members personally liable for the debts or actions of the corporation.
Here are some common scenarios in which courts might lift the corporate veil:
Fraud or Illegality: If shareholders or members use the corporate structure to perpetrate fraud, evade legal obligations, or engage in illegal activities, courts may disregard the corporate entity and hold those individuals personally liable.
Undercapitalization: If a corporation is formed with insufficient capital to conduct its intended business and meet its foreseeable liabilities, and this lack of capitalization results in harm to creditors or other parties, courts may lift the corporate veil to hold shareholders or members liable.
Failure to Observe Corporate Formalities: Corporations and LLCs are required to observe certain formalities, such as holding regular meetings, maintaining separate financial records, and avoiding commingling of personal and corporate assets. If these formalities are not observed and the corporate structure is used as a mere façade, courts may disregard the corporate entity.
Alter Ego: If there is such a unity of interest and ownership between the corporation and its shareholders or members that the separate personalities of the corporation and the individuals no longer exist, courts may treat the corporation as the alter ego of its owners and hold them personally liable.
Group Enterprises: In some cases, where multiple corporations are closely related or form part of a single economic unit, courts may pierce the corporate veil to achieve equity, particularly if one corporation's actions harm creditors or other stakeholders and the corporate structure is being used to shield culpable parties from liability.

The Top 5 Long-Term Benefits of Attorneys Remaining Employed With a Single Law Firm.pptx
1.
2. The Top 5 Long-Term
Benefits of Attorneys
Remaining Employed With
a Single Law Firm
BY HARRISON BARNES
3. Introduction
If you go into any firm that has been around more than twenty or thirty years, you will
inevitably find a handful of attorneys who have been there from the very beginning of their
careers.
◦ These well-adjusted souls will typically report to work each day at a similar time and have managed to
be the only ones presumably left in the law firm after generation upon generation of attorneys coming
and going.
Many attorneys do last for decades in the same firm and there are characteristics which
uniformly seem to characterize these sorts of attorneys.
◦ While I am a legal recruiter, I do have a great deal of respect for attorneys who in this day and age are
able to "stay put" at the same firm for a long period of time and remain at a single firm throughout
their careers.
4. Introduction
◦ None of this is to say there are not good and solid reasons for leaving a law firm or other legal
environment if the going gets impossible.
◦ I am the first to admit that there are legal employment environments that can be intolerable for many.
◦ Nevertheless, you need to keep in mind that if a legal employer has been around for 30+ years, there
is a chance the employer is doing something right.
◦ Before leaving, it is often wise to take inventory of yourself.
There are certain characteristics that tend to characterize attorneys who stick with the same
legal employer for long lengths of time and also certain characteristics of this employment
situation.
◦ These characteristics are discussed below:
5. 1. Attorneys Who Remain With the
Same Firm for Long Lengths of Time
Are Generally Very Committed to
Their Jobs
6. 1. Attorneys Who Remain With the
Same Firm for Long Lengths of Time
Are Generally Very Committed to Their
Jobs
Many people were raised with the idea (or have the idea) that fidelity to an employer is
something that is simply expected.
◦ The unwritten rule is that if you are not treated horribly, then there is really no reason you should ever
end up leaving a job.
One of the saddest, but also the most refreshing things I have seen as a legal recruiter, is
when I interview and meet with attorneys who have been with the same firm for 20 years or
more and whose firms are going under or are in a position of being forced to look for other
opportunities.
7. 1. Attorneys Who Remain With the
Same Firm for Long Lengths of Time
Are Generally Very Committed to Their
Jobs
◦ When attorneys like this look for a new position, their rationale is most often that something profound
has happened at the firm that is making their separation necessary.
◦ These attorneys appear as if they are going through a divorce or have just had a death of someone
they are very close to.
◦ For these attorneys, leaving a position is something that would be unthinkable and only something
they would consider in the event of a massive trauma.
8. 1. Attorneys Who Remain With the
Same Firm for Long Lengths of Time
Are Generally Very Committed to Their
Jobs
This fidelity between employers and employees reminds me often of people who have been
married 50 years or more.
◦ There is a mutual respect that comes out of this and a way of thinking that both need one another.
◦ I believe that this sort of thinking is really rare in this day and age.
◦ While this may not seem related to careers, a statistic I once saw in a social science class showed that
as divorce rates went up in society so did rates of drug abuse, suicide and other associated societal
ills.
◦ The bond between an employer and an employee is a powerful force that, in its best form, is much like
the bond between a husband and wife with a very committed relationship.
◦ Both sides respect and accept one another for the most part unconditionally.
9. 1. Attorneys Who Remain With the
Same Firm for Long Lengths of Time
Are Generally Very Committed to Their
Jobs
The attorney who is committed to their job is in many respects similar to someone who is
committed to anything.
◦ There may be something else out there, but they have decided to remain loyal.
◦ This attitude is a very healthy one, I believe, and can also make these attorneys very settled.
◦ I know an attorney that was offered over $1,000,000 a year by a rival firm when he was making just
barely above half of that.
◦ He was not interested in the money and was more concerned with the bond he had with his current
firm.
◦ This is how it works when there is commitment on both ends.

Gossip or Reasons Not to Succeed
In every organization, there are typically people who are not succeeding at their jobs.
◦ These people generally are not doing their work in a competent manner and are also often looking for
ways to cut corners with their work.
◦ Most organizations will generally call out this behavior and then speak with the employee.
◦ Some employees correct their behavior and others simply get mad at the organization.
◦ Some employees may be mad at their organizations for no particular reason at all, or they may be
angry with a previous organization and simply transfer their anger to their current employer.
◦ I remember a recruiter once telling me never to hire someone who had been fired from their last job.
◦ People who have been fired from their last job will typically take out their anger on their next
organization he told me.
12. 2. Attorneys Who Remain With the
Same Firm Are Not Interested in Office
Gossip or Reasons Not to Succeed
You need to understand that there are always going to be people in the organization who
have a lot of anger towards their employers.
◦ These angry employees will start rumors, attempt to share their anger with others in the organization
and often subtly (or not so subtly) forecast "gloom and doom" for their employer.
◦ This is how rumor mills get started and these rumor mills are prevalent in every legal organization
there is for the most part.
13. 2. Attorneys Who Remain With the
Same Firm Are Not Interested in Office
Gossip or Reasons Not to Succeed
Attorneys who remain with their employers generally do not participate in these rumor mills
or even pay attention to them.
◦ At certain times in an employer's history, there are likely to be calls of "crisis" of seemingly epidemic
proportions as lots of people leave, for example.
◦ At other times there will be other issues.
◦ The overwhelming characteristic of attorneys who remain at firms for long periods of time is that they
generally pay no attention to these rumor mills whatsoever.

I once heard someone say that the most successful people are often the most screwed up.
◦ I am not sure if this is true, but there is some wisdom in every saying like this.
◦ Attorneys who are able to remain with the same employer for long periods of time are generally not
concerned with "getting ahead" to the same extent as many other attorneys are.
◦ Many attorneys who are extremely concerned with getting ahead will often leave saying they are
looking for better opportunities because they are interested in immediate advancement.
◦ In other cases, attorneys will try and show up various attorneys in their firm.
16. 3. Attorneys Who Remain With the Same
Firm for Long Periods of Time Generally Are
Not Interested in Being Grand standers -They
Are There to Do Their Jobs and Do Them Well
Attorneys who remain at their firms for long periods of time are generally most interested in
just doing their jobs.
◦ They have faith in their organizations and that things will work out for them.
◦ They are not loud and do not go out of their way to attract attention.
◦ Their main concern is to simply do the best job possible.
17. 3. Attorneys Who Remain With the Same

What ends up happening to attorneys who remain focused on their work and not
grandstanding is they end up getting ahead while other attorneys end up putting their foot in
their mouth.
◦ When I first started practicing, I met an attorney who was first in his class from a major law school and
the Editor-in-Chief of his school's law review.
◦ Everyone thought this particular attorney was really on his toes and someone likely to have major
success at the firm.
◦ This attorney wrote articles in his spare time and argued with firm partners about the finer points of
law (and was right when he argued).
18. 3. Attorneys Who Remain With the Same

◦ While this attorney was very smart, he thought he was so good that he ended up sabotaging his
career in the long run when he called a newspaper to discuss a case he was working on and ended up
being quoted on the front page of the Los Angeles Daily Journal.
◦ The fallout from this incredible incident caused the attorney to leave the law firm, and he never
worked for a large law firm again.

This sort of incident aside, it is important to keep a moderately low profile in order to have
long-term success in a law firm.
◦ It is never wise to raise your swords and capture the limelight.
◦ While someone can win a sword match for some time, they will eventually lose, and in a sword match
(which your legal career could be compared to), the loss is usually permanent.

Necessarily 'Brilliant') Work
21. 4. Attorneys Who Remain With Their

Typically Do Good (But Not Necessarily
'Brilliant') Work
An attorney who remains at their firm for long periods of time typically has learned to "pace
themselves" and manages to do work on a day-to-day basis that is good, but not necessarily
extraordinary.
◦ This does not matter.
◦ I would estimate that the majority of the battle of being an excellent attorney is simply showing up.
◦ Sure, some people can do extraordinary work; however, the brightest flame is not always the longest
burning flame.
◦ The ability to consistently show up and do the work is the most important aspect of being a long-term
performer in a law firm.
22. 4. Attorneys Who Remain With Their
Firms for Long Periods of Time
Typically Do Good (But Not Necessarily
'Brilliant') Work
The smartest attorneys out there are often the ones who end up having the most problems
in the practice of law.
◦ Attorneys who can consistently show up for work and do an excellent job send the message to
colleagues, clients and others that they have the ability to get the job done.
◦ In the end, it is all about getting the job done.

Between Attorneys Who Remain At

24. 5. An Understanding of 'Insiders' and
'Outsiders' Typically Develops Between
Attorneys Who Remain At Their Firms for
Long Periods of Time
After an attorney has been with a law firm for an extended period of time, an understanding
develops between that attorney and others who have been at the firm a long period of time.
◦ An institutional understanding develops.
◦ This understanding seems to say something to the effect of "people may come and go, but we are the
ones who are committed to this organization, and we are the heart and soul of this place.”
◦ A similar sort of understanding that develops is that "we owe each other because we have each
demonstrated a commitment."
25. 5. An Understanding of 'Insiders' and
'Outsiders' Typically Develops Between
Attorneys Who Remain At Their Firms for
Long Periods of Time
Bonds form between people who have been part of the same organization for long periods
of time.
◦ These bonds are often invisible, but they are real bonds.
◦ These bonds are powerful and make the organization and forces within it come to the defense of
those who are committed to the organization during times of organizational change and
reorganization.
◦ These bonds are something that gets stronger over time as an organization changes.
◦ After some time, attorneys who have been with the firm for decades are simply treated as part of the
very fabric of the firm and are virtually unquestioned.
27. D. Conclusions
While it may seem odd for a recruiter to write a story in defense of attorneys remaining with
their firms, longevity with a firm is something that is meaningful in this day and age.
◦ There are many characteristics of attorneys who remain at their firms for long periods of time, and
these characteristics, in my experience, are usually found in most attorneys who demonstrate this
level of stability.
28. D. Conclusions
A final factor is that, in my experience, attorneys who remain with firms for long periods of
time are often less tormented than the average attorney.
◦ By looking for reasons to like and respect their organization rather than find fault, they find
themselves in organizations which ultimately welcome them.
It is always important to remember that if a law firm or other legal organization has been
around for 20 years or more, the chances are it is doing some things very right.
◦ There will always be people who succeed in these organizations and, of course, always those who
leave or fail.
