“A foundational opportunity to join the chambers of an Advocate-on-Record and master the art of multi-forum litigation in the national capital.”
About the Chambers of Sahil Monga
The Chambers of Sahil Monga is a premier litigation practice led by an Advocate-on-Record (AOR) at the Supreme Court of India. Based in New Delhi, the chambers serve as a comprehensive legal hub for high-stakes dispute resolution. For an aspiring Litigation Associate, joining an AOR’s office provides a unique vantage point, as the practice operates across the entire judicial hierarchy—from the foundational District Courts to the apex Supreme Court of India.
The practice is characterized by its intellectual depth and its presence in diverse legal arenas, including civil, corporate, commercial, and criminal law. By appearing before specialized tribunals like the NCLT and NCLAT as well as the Delhi High Court, the chambers offer a rich, cross-disciplinary environment. The ethos of the firm centers on “independent thinking” and professional growth, encouraging junior associates to evolve from researchers into confident courtroom advocates. Under the mentorship of Sahil Monga, the chambers prioritize quality drafting and rigorous legal analysis, ensuring that every associate is prepared to build a robust independent practice in the future.
About the Litigation Associate Position
The Litigation Associate role at the Chambers of Sahil Monga is designed for lawyers with 0–2 years of Post-Qualification Experience (PQE) who are eager for “hands-on” exposure. This is not a back-end research role; it is a comprehensive training ground where associates are involved in the lifecycle of a case—from e-filing and procedural compliances to assisting in briefing Senior Counsel for final hearings.
The learning outcomes are extensive. Associates will master the nuances of drafting complex pleadings, such as Writ Petitions and Special Leave Petitions (SLPs), while developing the oratorical skills required for courtroom appearances. The role also demands a high level of administrative precision, including managing e-filing portals and ensuring procedural adherence across different forums. For a fresh law graduate or a junior lawyer, this position offers the chance to take increasing responsibility in a high-pressure, high-reward litigation environment.

The position of Litigation Associate is strictly a physical, in-person role. The nature of Delhi litigation—requiring daily appearances across the NCLT, NCLAT, and various District Courts—demands that the associate be physically present for briefings and court attendance. This allows the associate to absorb the “court craft” that only comes from being present in the courtroom during arguments.
