Akhil Eshwar Jha

Working out of room 710 in the Patiala House Courts is a busy experience. My name is Akhil Eshwar Jha and this is where I spend most of my waking hours. The courts are always full of people rushing around, lawyers in black coats, and folks looking for help. It can be quite loud and confusing if you aren't used to it. My office is just a small room in the middle of all that chaos. It's filled with stacks of papers and old books. There isn't much room for decoration. I just need a place to sit and think and talk to the people who come to see me. The walk from the main gate to the seventh floor can be long if the elevators are busy. I’ve been here for a long time, so I know the halls pretty well. I don't have a fancy website or a PR team. I just have my name on the door and my work. It’s a hard place to work sometimes because of the pressure, but I just take it one case at a time. I don't try to sound like a big corporate firm. I'm just an individual working in the heart of the legal system here. Every day is different, and you never know who will walk through that door at 710.
