28 September 2011 What is procedure to start a Law Firm? Can advocates start a Law firm by registering it under Bombay Shop Act as like proprietary in nature
My problem is that I wish to start PAN service center for which registration of firm is compulsory then what I have to do?
May I register such Propitiatory firm under Bombay Shop Act? or Not?

29 September 2011 You can work as a trainee advocate with an advocate or firm, but in order to practice law in India, you need to have passed the All India Bar Examination. This requirement is not unlike that in the United Kingdom, the United States of America and the Commonwealth, where the passing of the Legal Practice Course (LPC), the Bar Vocational Course (BVC, to be the Bar Professional Training Course from 2011) or the Bar Examination is a necessary step for moving from being a Trainee Solicitor, a Bar Pupil or an Articled Clerk to an advocate, attorney, solicitor or barrister. (Unless you passed out from your college prior to 2009-2010.)
