An Interested Applicant
Hi. This is a very interesting opportunity indeed, from a law student’s stand-point. However, I would want to know, if the nature of engagement as a LSRC would require only online work or will it also require physical presence or both? I would be really grateful if some further details are furnished to this effect.
Thank you!
