Introduction 

A law firm is a group of lawyers who work together to practise law. It is a legal business company founded by one or more attorneys to practise law. A legal firm’s members usually share customers and income. Historically, legal companies were formed as partnerships. Depending on the jurisdiction in which the company works, law firms are now formed in a number of ways. A law firm’s principal service is to educate clients (individuals or businesses) about their legal rights and duties, as well as to represent them in civil or criminal lawsuits, business transactions, and other matters requiring legal advice and assistance.

Every law student dreams of getting placed in a top law firm either as an intern during law school days or as an employee on a professional front. Why is this craze surrounding law firms steadily growing? Ever wondered? Well, steady job, decent salary, different expertise fields, large client base, divergent exposure, and the list goes on, are some of the many reasons why law firms have been the ideal choice for law grads.
