With a vision to empower people by creating avenues for expanding their legal knowledge, the founders of LiveLaw, India's leading Legal News Portal, started LiveLaw Academy in 2021. The aim of LiveLaw Academy is to foster learning in both the core and niche areas of law. To make legal education accessible, we design specialised courses suitable for law students, lawyers and non-lawyers, which are taught by former Judges, Senior Advocates, subject experts and academicians. These courses synthesize the practical application of law with theoretical foundations.

VISION STATEMENT

1. Teaching the core concepts/ foundations of law in clear and lucid terms,
2. Creating a dedicated discussion space for reading and interpreting laws and judgements,
3. Designing value-based courses that are comprehensive in terms of subject knowledge,
4. Advocating critical legal thinking and
5. Highlighting the importance of ethical training in the practice of law.

After successfully conducting various specialised courses, we felt there is a need to design comprehensive courses for preparation of competitive examinations. We, therefore, bring to you, the new initiative of LiveLaw Academy, 'The Judicial Service Examinations Preparation Course'. JSEP aims to equip students with an in-depth understanding of the legal subjects, language, General Knowledge. It will be taught by experienced faculties which includes former High Court Judges.
