[QUOTE="futuretraineesolicitor, post: 212525, member: 4098"] Hi [USER=36740]@Amma Usman[/USER] [USER=36777]@Andrei Radu[/USER] , hope you are doing well. I have a question regarding Baker McKenzie’s recent plans to open an office in India following the liberalisation of the Indian legal market. I’m from India and have an assessment centre with Baker McKenzie later this month. I want to leverage my Indian background to stand out, but I’m not sure how the opening of the Indian office will impact my potential role in the London office. Specifically, how can I best position myself to contribute from London given the firm’s new presence in India? What additional value could I bring to the London team with my Indian expertise now that there will soon be an Indian office? I was thinking something on the lines of how, if there is an Indian company buying a company in the UK as per english law, I can help the london team staffed on the matter understand how much time regulatory bodies may take to revert for permissions etc. This could be reflected in the 'estimated timeline' section in the conditions precedent etc. But then this can be done even without Bakers having an Indian office. So i am really not sure about how I can milk the office news to my advantage. Additionally, I would appreciate some clarity on the kind of work Baker McKenzie intends to handle from the Indian office. Since the rules restrict the Indian office to advising only on foreign laws, why open a physical office there when much of this work can be done remotely from anywhere? Thanks in advance. [/QUOTE]
