Greetings Dear Friends.
I am a junior advocate and started my independent practice in 2024 . I am a counsel in a case . My client was allowed to appear in the examination on basis of court order . The result was declared in court . The final joining was subject to final disposal of the writ petition. I charged very less fee as she said she was a student and in case she qualifies she will pay me 3 lakh rupees. Now she has qualified but refused to pay the fee .
There were other candidates facing same issue in same exam who had filed a separate case and were represented by a cousel with over 12 years of experience. They too were allowed to appear in the exam by court order and finally qualified. Now my client approached the senior counsel. The senior counsel got his case and my case clubbed together submitting to the court that matters are identical. So my case will be decided and disposed off along with his case.
I have not been paid fee yet. I worked on case for over 1.5 years with hope I will earn good money if my client qualifies .
Now what should I do ? Kindly assist
