    Today i went there to submit my intimation for dhaka judge court and what happened? They asked me one thousand taka as bribe and without that they would not grant my application. Finally, I have been forced to give the money. The person was an old man wearing tupi, payjama panjabi and behavior was so rude. I went there to start my journey as an apprentice lawyer but reality is harsh here. I don't know, will it be possible for me to live a life with honesty? or haven't they just killed a young man's positive thoughts? This land is not suitable for good people. Here you will only find the legacy of corrupt officials. Our poor Bangladesh!

    Hub of the Lawyer's administration in Bangladesh. The service they provide through manual records are sometimes baffling. Great to see the digitisation process in the play and hope the manual filing system will soon be forgotten.

  • 3/5 Md Zahirul I. 6 years ago on Google
    The controlling authority of lawyers in Bangladesh. They take exams, enroll the lawyers and give permission to practice law in Bangladesh. However, their service is very slow and often very frustrating. They have scarcity of manpower. But according to law, they are required to do a lot, yet they simply do not perform. Their exam systems need to be mordenized.

    Regulatory body for the advocates of Bangladesh. A law graduate can practice before a court of law only after having enrollment from this government autonomous body. Alike other government offices it is kind of infested with corrupt officers and clerks.
