LawZ Magazine - January 2019

In this issue

As we enter into the 19th volume of LawZ, we evade reminiscing about the various events that took place during the years, rather attempt to look into the future of the legal field. It has been a decade-long belief, further strengthened by failed technological entries in the legal field, that machine couldn’t foray in legal work. However, silently machines
have become an indispensable fragment of the legal profession , from replacing All India Reporters with a query on the internet, and the cloud for storing otherwise kilos heavy files. Such technology has broken otherwise capital-intensive practices, and now pose
the question of absolute substitution of lawyers with artificially intelligent machines. Change rarely comes in the form we expect it to, however acceptance and symbiosis of change keeps us alive as individuals and as members of society. Law is an evolving body, multiple amendments to the constitution have kept its beliefs in lieu of the modern
environment. The first amendment had introduced schedule 9 of the Constitution, which attempted to safeguard land reforms. However, with the test of time, it has been referenced in unintended purposes and recoursed by various amendments.May the year’s resolutions bring hope and accolades.

LawZ Magazine Description:

LawZ released its first issue in August, 2001. The intent was to create a magazine about the law and the legal field, but with a difference. LawZ is India s first comprehensive monthly law magazine for all.The magazine not only covers events relating to the Indian legal system but also makes an effort in comparing it with the legal systems across the globe.

Instead of being of interest only to lawyers and others involved in the legal profession, the aim was to create something that could be read, understood, and even enjoyed by those who do not have formal knowledge of law. In short, it was to be more than a dry, ponderous collection of articles written in the oft arcane language of the court. Nor was it to focus solely on India, because today no news is complete unless it touches on the world at large.

The magazine reaches to all the judges of the Supreme Court, High Courts, Bar Council of India, Lawyers, Law Colleges and Institutions, top Indian and foreign Law Firms, Indian Corporates and Multinational Companies and Legal departments of government and Semi-government agencies, Corporate houses and several Embassies.

The magazine is presently in its 15th year of publication and is receiving tremendous response and appreciation from all the sections of the society and today is the only legal magazine, which has attained its present status in such a short span of time.

We’ve come a long way since our first issue. Today, it is regarded as a benchmark and a trailblazer in legal journalism.
