Yes you can.

There are various job opportunities with diverse subjects, depending upon the specialization and interest of the student. Lawyers specialized in civil law are hired by several government institutes, private law firms and nonprofit organizations, National Human Rights Commission and many more. Career options for civil law postgraduates exists in teaching field also. They can become teachers and professors in the renowned Universities.

Criminal lawyers initially starts their career by assisting a professional and renowned criminal lawyer. After gaining experience, you can start working individually. A criminal lawyer plays the role of both advisor and advocates to the clients. The work profile of a criminal lawyer in India is not so easy, it requires lots of patience to work on a case for long hours. Criminal Lawyer jobs mainly revolve around communication with the clients, collecting evidences & actual facts by interviewing the witnesses. They also interact with the police & research in details about the case. After giving the Bar Exam, criminal law graduates can join a legal firm or they can start their own practice. They can also work at the session court, trial court or the high court.

All the best.
