Rudespotted: Vinay Kesari

Posted on by Rudrajyoti Nath Ray

Third-Rung Lawyers [i.e., those in the age bracket of 28-37] are an active lot on Twitter. Key figures are controlling opinion on a variety of issues. It is expected some of them will turn Partners or Senior Advocates or Both, in time.

There is a benefit in knowing these men and women. For if they are indeed the future of the legal profession, this is their history being written.

In 2017, I aim to conduct a series of chat-sessions, with or without warning, with those who I have identified as important. You are welcome to bite the bait.

Vinay Kesari (@vinaykesari) recently suggested that Law Firms provide on average safer workplaces than the Bar.

The conversation would have been longer and conclusive if VK had not played his man-card and claimed safety from mansplaining.

Disclaimers:

  1. There shall always be edits.
  2. I probe the lawyer, not the law.
  3. I have not tutored these words to mean anything more than intended.

'The Last Word' seeks to include not only wise and witty sayings of the judges but also curiosities of lawyers and the law. This blog is not of obligation but of delight. I frankly confess my ignorance of much that ought to be included from overseas jurisdictions; and I utter a gentle prayer that those who know better would lighten my darkness. I am confident that I am not alone in my refusal to believe that the law is tedious or that the Indians really like all their law dull. For all that has escaped these percipient eyes, mea culpa maxima. History, after all, has many cunning passages, contrived corridors and issues.
