You get personal & cheap with my client to objectify her in the Court & I’ll rip you apart right there. On the very same podium. I swear I’ll make you repent every word used. Some of them seem to have lost all class and will go to any extent just to win a case.

What they don’t tell you is how to grieve the sudden demise of your youngest sister. Just 36. No illness. No history of BP. A doctor herself. Sudden Brain hemorrhage and she just left. Quietly. No goodbyes. It’s like someone has ripped the heart of the family out.

When I joined the profession I was in awe of Mr. Salve. Had the pleasure of briefing him in his fancy office at the Taj Man Singh and thought ‘I had arrived’. After 18 years in the profession and watching his conduct inside and outside Court I’ve lost all respect for him.

Shame on Mr. Salve yet again! You argued Kulbushan for 1 Rupee & now choose to represent the UP govt in the #Hathras failure of administration? And if that wasn’t enough, the arrogant body language towards a colleague arguing for the Victim’s family was nothing but disgusting!
