Locus.legal, a legal career and skilling platform built for the Indian legal community, is now live. The platform brings together a searchable firm directory, a practical skill-testing system, a curated vacancy board, and AI-powered legal tools — all in one place, all built with the Indian law student in mind.
The Problem Nobody Was Fixing
India produces over 1.5 lakh law graduates every year. Fewer than 8,000 get a structured shot at Tier-1 firms. The filter is not talent. It is the college badge, the family network, and the cold-email script you were never taught.
The information that gets students through — which firms are hiring, what they pay interns, how their application windows work, what a winning cold email looks like — has always sat behind WhatsApp groups, seniors who graduated three years ago, and coaches charging ten thousand rupees for a PDF.
Locus flips that. It treats the legal opportunity market as a distribution problem, not a merit one.
What The Platform Does
At the centre is the firm directory — over 4,500 entries covering Tier-1, Tier-2, and Tier-3 firms, individual chambers, solo practitioners, SME litigation lawyers, and legal startups. Thirty-eight filters let students cut by city, practice area, size, PPO conversion rate, intern pay, and application window.
Then there is The Bar — a points-based skill assessment system where students earn rankings through practical legal questions. The leaderboard does not display college names. The score does the talking.
The vacancy board is curated and verified, not scraped. Every listing is checked before it goes live. Deadlines are visible. No dead links.
The AI Tools Suite covers NDAs, data protection checklists, DPA templates, and internship agreements — documents students encounter early but rarely know how to handle.
Locus was founded by Indrajeet K Singh, a corporate lawyer at a Singapore-based company, who built the platform to address gaps he navigated firsthand early in his own career.
The platform is free to access.
