Who can enrol for the LawSikho Courses?
We recommend that you should have completed your Higher Secondary / Class XII from a recognized Board / University. In the case of foreign nationals, you should have completed the equivalent of Higher Secondary in India in your respective country. You should also be comfortable with the English language and using a computer. However, we have no formal pre-qualification requirements because we are not a University or college. Anyone who wants to learn is welcome to join our courses.
Are hard copy study materials provided for reference, or are there only online classes?
Students of LawSikho will be provided, we will dispatch hard copy materials within 45 days of your course commencement date.
However, online classes, videos, regulatory updates and periodic upgrades to the courses cannot be included in the hard copies. We will provide you with hard copy material for all important chapters. We keep adding many new chapters from time to time and there are restrictions on page numbers so all online material cannot be available in hard copy. We would keep adding new material online from time to time, so please do not expect all such material to be made available in the hard copy also. You can use the hard copy materials for your reference, however, we recommend that you do not exclusively rely on hard copies for cracking the assessment test and the exercises. Please refer to the online library of materials from time to time.
Note: We will send hard copy material through our service partners. We have three service partners.
1. Indian Speed Post (Provides delivery ‘anywhere in India’ under contractual service)
2. Delhivery
3. Trackon Couriers Pvt Limited
If our service partners do not have a presence in your area and want to get the hard copy, you can send us a specific request.
LawSikho will not be responsible if the speed post bounces back or hard copy material is not delivered. We will levy the courier charge on you in such a scenario.
Please visit the respective course page to learn more about the hard copy study material policy of that course.
Will international students also be sent hard copy material?
If international students require hard copy material, they need to share their correct address and we will let them know the cost of the courier which they need to pay and then the hard copy will be dispatched. This is the process because the cost of an international courier is very high compared to the domestic courier within India (for domestic courier we have no additional charges). Some international students provide us with an Indian address for couriering hard copy material. In those cases, we charge nothing extra for the courier.

Hence you will get different exercises and assignments every week and all relevant material to solve them. Please do not worry that you have not read other associated concepts. We are recreating the experience of working in a law firm or in-house legal department, and we found that this is the kind of training that works best. Live classes will relate to the week’s assignments. You can read the modules from module 1, but we advise you to follow the courses according to where the assignments take you. By the end of the course duration, you would have covered all the syllabus and retained everything.
If it feels complicated and challenging midway, do not worry. The course is designed like this. You need to stick to it, hold on for dear life and ride along as you ride a roller coaster. Our responsibility is that you are satisfied and get all the results that you were promised by the end. If you are not, you can hold us responsible.

I am likely to have a busy schedule this year because of academics, co-curricular activities or enrollment in other courses like the CS course. Will this course be very demanding or time-consuming?
The course is designed keeping in mind the schedule of practising lawyers, working professionals, entrepreneurs and full-time students. The learnings are well spread out over a long period. There would be a specific learning objective every week, accompanied by assignments. It takes about 8-10 hours for a person of average intelligence to complete all course activities every week. You need to take this course one week at a time.
We do not guarantee that you will pass the course without putting in reasonable effort or attention. Still, the exact amount of time you would need to dedicate depends on your ability to grasp the material.
Is it possible for a person who doesn't know the law to study independently with the material given?
Yes, knowledge of the law is not a prerequisite for deriving value from the course. It is possible that what you learn in this course is entirely independent of any other course you have probably pursued or are pursuing. The course is designed keeping in mind that there will be many non-lawyers taking up this course. The only knowledge we assume is what one would expect to know after completing higher secondary school. All modules are reviewed from a high school graduate's perspective and ensured that they are effortless to understand.
You only require knowledge of the English language and basic computer skills to understand the concepts.
Is there placement or internship assistance for candidates who enrol in the course?
An active placement assistance program is available to students, including CV-writing, career guidance, and sharing of relevant job and internship opportunities.

Students who complete the exercises and perform well in those exercises and classes can be recommended to law firms, lawyers chambers and companies for jobs and internships. However, we do not guarantee any job or internship.
We have also started a career clinic for the benefit of our students. Students can visit our office in Delhi or seek career-related insights over phone or video calls on pre-designated days. More than 2000 positions have been shared with our students to date, and hundreds have got placements and internships through us. Our students have been placed in various law firms and other organisations as full-time employees and have obtained multiple opportunities for internships under the programme. How many opportunities you get will depend on your efforts in the course, and if you do the course well, you will be able to find jobs on your own.
We will also provide you with a career development course free of cost if you need it. Just ask our customer support if and when you need it after participating in at least three months of classes.

You can even share your screen with the teacher for comments if the teacher requests it, and the teacher can show you his or her screen. You can see other people attending the class also. There is usually a lot of discussion amongst the students and teachers in the class. It is very much like a live classroom except that you do not have to travel to access the class; you can access it on the go as long as you have internet and a device.

Sometimes it may be possible to schedule a call with evaluators and discuss with them, but this is at the discretion of the evaluator and at a time of his or her convenience. We cannot handle unlimited calls with every small question. You have to respect the time and availability of the evaluators also. For that, you already have the Learning Management System and the WhatsApp group, where you can post an unlimited number of doubts.

Major companies have been hiring us to train their legal teams and managerial executives with cutting edge legal courses. This is proof of our success.
Are there going to be classroom sessions?

Apart from one session related to your course, sometimes you will be invited to attend extra free sessions on writing, networking or other relevant skills. However, the course is conducted through an online learning management system, enabling students to access study materials from anywhere in the world at their own time and convenience. Course materials will be accessible on the online learning management system, which you can assess on a laptop/desktop. You can also access the course on your phone by downloading the LawSikho app. We may upload some course materials around the time of your class about the relevant issue.

Our experts' weekly online sessions will include feedback on the previous week's exercise and explain new concepts related to upcoming exercises.
What if I cannot attend the classroom sessions?
