It is better to google this type of questions rather than asking on this platform.

The name ‘AB & Associates’ denotes that AB has a prime position and others have only limited or subordinate position in the firm.

Advocates can form a firm which will be recognised by the courts like High Court for practical purposes in case management as per their rules.

The firm will have to follow all the financial rules of the country including income tax and other rules governing a host of other taxes, charges and fees.
