Book Review- High and Law By Advocate Sanjay Pinto

Written in clear and crisp manner Sanjay Pinto's popular weekly column has regularly demystified the intricacies of law and elucidated it for that simple man – one who is confused with the legalese that would confront him were he to seek remedies for himself. When the internet is brimming with limited information, misleading information and even misinformation, Sanjay's column has been a boon to all. This compendium of his articles is invaluable and the 150 articles that he has selected to publish in his book High and Law cover topics that affect everyone: from something as simple as bottled water prices in hotels and malls to something far more complicated as arbitration. It is also a fact that his columns have led to several official decisions correcting the flaws and addressing the lacunae. In that Sanjay Pinto does his service to society without fanfare or publicity.

Sanjay Pinto writes as if he has the person with query is sitting in front of him and he is answering them- such is the breezy, easy manner in which he deals with the subjects that are hard to explain. From Medical law when he deals with prickly subject of medical consent, Resident Welfare Associations that make rules that are unreasonable, to bureaucratic procedures that are used to punish the honest and the dedicated officers Sanjay Pinto raises those questions that are hard for others to ask. His answers to the questions he raises on behalf of others in his columns, he answers with legal basis and prevailing laws.

This is definitely a valuable a book that one should keep in ones collection; you will refer to it for yourself or for someone.
