Many Law firms registered as LLP and mentioned other business in LLP application form. They appointed advocates as directors and giving them salary. Their partners are only 2 but associates are multi. As per vakalatnama only partners can attend hearing.
In Aug 2010 Trilegal is awaiting a response from the Bar Council of India (BCI) on whether the firm is allowed to convert to a limited liability partnership (LLP) under the Advocates Act, as start-up Vidhii Partners vowed to convert to LLP in two months and Luthra & Luthra, Nishith Desai Associates, IndusLaw and at least eight other firms have reserved respective LLP names.
Trilegal wrote a letter to the bar council of Delhi several months ago, requesting clarification on whether it was allowed for lawyers to practice in an LLP entity structure under the Advocates Act."We got a response from the Bar Council [of India around a month ago] that they'd like to hear us and present our arguments, so we are still in the process of figuring out the date that is convenient to everybody," said Trilegal co-founding partner Anand Prasad, adding: "We haven't heard back from them yet. Again it's on the slow burner."
