Jorge Mañá Award Winner, Shivani Sinha, shares her experience working at Paoletti Legal Consultants

 

"Enriching and valuable." This is how Shivani Sinha, winner of the Jorge Mañá Award 2024, described her experience working with WLN member firm Paoletti Legal Consultants in Dubai last year. Read on to find out why the Award is so special to our network and supports young lawyers across the world:

"I want to take a moment to express my sincere gratitude to WLN for the Jorge Mañá Young Lawyers Award 2024, which is an annual grant made by WLN to a lawyer under the age of 35 who is employed by a WLN member firm, in the memory of Mr. Jorge Mañá Arguelles who died tragically in 2009, after a skiing accident.

I would like to take the opportunity to share my experience of working with the Paoletti Legal Consultants, Dubai, UAE, under the guidance of Mr. Thomas Paoletti and the team, which has been an enriching and valuable learning experience. Throughout my tenure, I was exposed to a variety of legal areas including corporate law, international law, real estate law etc.

Dubai, as we all are aware, is known for its fast-paced, multi-cultural work environment, which has been a great learning experience, especially to build a solid foundation in international law. The experience of working in Dubai with the Paoletti Legal Consultants, with its unique blend of local and international legal practices, has deepened my understanding of varied aspects of law and how they intersect in practice.

I believe this experience has provided me with a fresh perspective on international legal practice and has sharpened my analytical skills, which I am eager to apply in our work in India. Above all, I would like to express my sincere appreciation to Mr. Gautam Khurana and India Law Offices LLP for the opportunity. It has been an invaluable experience, and I am truly grateful for the trust and confidence placed in me. Working under the leadership of Mr. Gautam Khurana has been inspiring and motivating and I look forward to continuing learning and growing within the team.

Thank you again for the incredible opportunity and recognition.

Thank you,

Shivani"
