Legal Education is a key to a noble profession. It has taken its course in the lap of time. Gone are the days when, in evening classes, law students would have been taught. Before it, a few capable incumbents looked toward Inns in England for learning sophisticated manners in the company of experienced and skillful professionals by paying a heavy fee. Research Institute like The Indian Law Institute contributed hugely in the field of law. Thereafter, National Law Schools introduced more dedicated law courses just after the completion of schooling. Presently, there are thousands of law colleges in the country. The Bar Council of India has taken charge after the enforcement of the Advocates Act, 1961. This body seems troubled for better legal education, but private players and mushrooming law schools are producing half-baked lawyers at relatively higher fees. The teachers in these mannequin colleges are paid meagerly. The only beneficiary is the owner or the trustee of these colleges. The Supreme Court has shown its anguish over substandard lawyers convoked from bogus law colleges. The apex Court has underlined the need for a complete revamp of legal education to save the system. Take of the students, what they crave from the system, and an inkling of special legal education for judges are also taken into account. The study goes deep to find out the way-out by learning from the past, analyzing the present, and envisioning the future of professional education in the field of law.
