My name is Ankur. I am a law graduate. I was my college topper for five years. In March 2018, I started WritingLaw.com. The primary objective was to create a modern law website that is clean, comfortable, and non-intimidating. Currently, my wife and I run it.

Everything is going well. This is because of law students, advocates, judges, and professors like you, who give me satisfaction, hope, and the motivation to keep working. Thank you for your love and support. I hope you have a productive and enjoyable time here.
