Fox Mandal is the only firm in India to have a Foreign Lawyers Programme. Fox Mandal encourages especially young foreign lawyers around the world to spend 3 to 6 months in any of the offices of Fox Mandal around India. Foreign law firms can also send young lawyers from their firm to Fox Mandal on a secondment.

Foreign In-House Counsel Programme

With the advent of economic liberalisation in India big and small foreign companies are investing in India. Fox Mandal has been involved in advising many such companies. Fox Mandal has observed that the foreign counsels, involved in the projects are unable to understand the legal system and the law of India as they are sometimes very different from their own country. However, since these foreign companies investing in India obviously have long term plans it is always useful to have someone in the company who understands the Indian system better. Keeping this in mind, Fox Mandal offer young in-house counsels of Companies having large or substantial presence in India for secondment in the firm for a period between 3 to 6 months.

Fox Mandal offers the following to foreign in-house counsel

  • A stipend
  • Lunch on all working days
  • Accomodation during entire stay in India
