Clarvis Legal LLP invites applications for its litigation assessment internship programme.
About the Organisation / Institution
Clarvis Legal LLP is a litigation-focused law firm based in New Delhi with a strong foundation in courtroom practice and dispute resolution. The firm evolved from the chamber of Mr. Sanjay Kumar, Advocate-on-Record at the Supreme Court of India, and has since developed into a structured legal practice handling a wide range of contentious matters before courts and tribunals.
With its roots in chamber-based litigation practice, Clarvis Legal LLP offers an environment that reflects the realities of professional advocacy. The firm regularly appears in civil, commercial, and criminal matters, allowing interns to understand procedural nuances across different branches of litigation. Its work involves drafting pleadings, assisting in court strategy, and handling documentation required for effective case preparation.
For students aspiring to pursue litigation careers, especially those targeting practice before trial courts, High Courts, or the Supreme Court of India, exposure to a chamber-style working structure provides essential professional grounding.
About the Opportunity / Programme
Clarvis Legal LLP is offering a Paid Assessment Internship Programme for final-year law students and recent graduates interested in developing practical litigation skills. The internship is structured to provide participants with hands-on exposure to real casework rather than purely academic research tasks.
The programme is assessment-based in nature, meaning interns will be evaluated on their performance, drafting ability, research quality, and professional commitment. High-performing candidates may benefit from future engagement opportunities depending on organisational requirements and individual merit.
This internship is particularly valuable for students who wish to transition from theoretical legal education to courtroom-oriented professional training.

Nature of Work / Responsibilities / Exposure
Selected interns will actively assist the legal team in ongoing litigation matters and gain exposure to procedural and substantive aspects of legal practice. Responsibilities will include conducting legal research on civil, commercial, and criminal disputes and assisting advocates in preparing case strategies.
Interns will also support drafting pleadings, applications, written submissions, and other litigation documents required at various procedural stages. Exposure to case preparation workflows will help interns understand how factual matrices are translated into legal arguments before courts.
Where feasible, interns may observe court proceedings and hearings, enabling them to connect drafting work with courtroom advocacy. Participation in documentation review and litigation support tasks will further strengthen their understanding of how chambers operate in a fast-paced dispute resolution environment.
Such structured exposure plays a crucial role in building foundational litigation skills that are difficult to acquire through classroom learning alone.
