The current crop of law graduates are not only counselling corporates on complex issues, but are also occupying offices of the government (Legislature, Executive, and Judiciary). A degree in law opens the door to wide variety of careers. Litigation, Corporate Counsel, Judiciary, Civil Services and Defense Services are the most promising Jobs option available after Graduation awarded as LLB (Bachelor of Legislative Law).
