THE FOUNDER’S STORY

The legal journey of Advocate Suraj Shandil began in the serene hills of Shimla. After completing his schooling in his hometown, he followed his passion for justice to Himachal Pradesh University, where he earned his B.A. LL.B.. During his time there, he developed a deep understanding of the core principles of law and gained practical experience through legal aid volunteering and moot court competitions.

Driven by a vision to master modern legal frameworks, Suraj moved to Chandigarh University to complete his LL.M. in Intellectual Property Rights (IPR). During his post-graduation, he specialized in the complex world of patents, trademarks, and copyrights, focusing on how international laws protect innovation and business strategies.

Beyond academic excellence, Suraj is a practitioner shaped by the rigors of the courtroom. After successfully clearing the All India Bar Examination (AIBE), he established himself as a dedicated member of the Himachal Pradesh High Court. His diverse professional experience, spanning from the District Courts of Shimla to the High Court and courts in Chandigarh, has transformed him into a seasoned legal professional with a sharp eye for detail and strategy.

As a passionate researcher and writer, Suraj has contributed several articles to legal journals, focusing on the real-world impact of IPR. This commitment to scholarship and his desire to empower fellow researchers led him to lay the foundation for the Joint Jurist . His goal is simple: to create a platform where legal research is accessible, authentic, and impactful for scholars across the globe.
