The most enthusiastic adopters of our Master Access Library have been in-house counsels.
Even before we had formally launched it, the first subscription was bought by Hasnain Alvi, a legal counsel at the IB Group, who had done several courses from us already by that point, having supported the crowdfunding initiative which helped us to launch LawSikho in the first place.
It made sense, therefore, that several legal departments have reached out to us regarding Master Access. They requested us to create a brochure that they can share with decision-makers within their organizations.
While creating that, we called up some of our in-house counsel Master Access members and asked them for their feedback on how they have used Master Access or benefitted from it so far.
What they told us is very exciting for us, and I thought I should share it with you all!
They shared some areas of improvement with us too, and we are already working on them.
If you are part of a corporate in-house legal team and you are interested in Master Access Library, we can help you to pitch your management for access to this resource.
We have made a beautiful corporate brochure for that! Just let us know. We would back you up with any help you need.
Those who are otherwise interested, please visit the page and join the waiting list! We would let you know when we reopen the program for individual memberships.
Testimonials from our in-house counsel users
Master Access Library is a great concept for people like me who frequently need information from different branches of law, both for procedure and rules. I look after legal cases where the span of disputes is very wide – from contracts to sexual harassment, one never knows what will be the next case. The Master Access platform has given me a single place to solve many tricky situations as the courses are practical rather than just theory. The group discussion amongst peers and the community feeling among professionals ensure I find solutions that I could never find in a book.
-Rajesh Ghose, Assistant Director (Personnel and Administration), GSI, Government of India
As an in-house counsel, I am expected to oversee a broad range of legal tasks for a company, which requires subject-matter knowledge of multiple laws. I cannot specialize in contract negotiation or trademarks or M&A alone. I need to oversee these functions, as well as a lot of other tasks. I need to facilitate business outcomes through my legal skills, so cross-functional legal knowledge and innovative thinking is necessary. For this purpose, I find access to a library of courses very useful. I can access practical knowledge and skills on my fingertips. The elaborate calendar of weekly live classes enables me to join sessions of my interest and relevance at work. Access to the team for clarification of doubts and mentorship is also very valuable.
-Shilpi Goyal, In-house Counsel, German MNC (name of employer withdrawn on request)
I have been using Master Access Library since April 2019. It has helped me a great deal with insolvency and arbitration matters. It serves as a primary destination for both research and learning as far as I am concerned. It enabled me to appear before NCLT. I have found references to the most useful case laws quickly from the library you provided. I have also benefitted from all the templates you have added based on my specific request.
-Hasnain Alvi, Legal Consultant at IB Group
It is a very useful resource database for in-house counsels like me, because it provides me with a large database of practical legal solutions, templates and how-to guides at my fingertips. The price is very reasonable as well given the depth and breadth of content. Additionally, one can attend live classes in areas of interest and build up specific expertise as per requirements and challenges at work. It is not a research tool alone, but a great source of learning and development, as I can consult specialized subject matter experts for quick guidance when I need to.
-Priyanka Raj, Assistant Manager Legal, Oyo
I liked the fact that concepts were explained in very simple language. There were times when I thought I was familiar with something because I learned about it in law school and yet I found it difficult when it came to applying the same to my work. So knowing that I can look up a topic with just a few clicks and being sure that I will find the answer I need was really helpful. I attended some online classes and found very useful. Teachers were from the industry with experience in doing practical work.
