JUNE 19th 2020

It takes me immense pleasure to invite all the esteemed members of the Legal Fraternity on behalf of lexpeeps to write blogs with us which we will publish in our “guest blog section”. After the huge success of the “our blogs” section which was dedicated to law students of different law schools and publishing more than 250 well-researched articles,

We are now starting with a section where the Lawyers of the Nation and the Academician connected with the Legal Fraternity will get an opportunity to put up their views more loudly and in front of a larger number of audience.

With Love and Respect
