There is a rumour that lawyers in India don't actually make much money. Numerous authors have backed this claim, but I don't believe it to be entirely accurate.
In India, practicing law is regarded as one of the most respectable careers. The most crucial benefit of becoming a lawyer is the high social status, employment security, benefits, and compensation.
Trust me, there are lots of Indian lawyers who make even more money than those working in the entertainment sector.
