Sources, verification & corrections

What a verification label means

• Not independently verified: a complete verification record is not available. Read the source and confirm current availability before applying.
• Source checked: an editor recorded a source URL, their name, and the actual time they checked the listing against that source.
• Employer confirmed: a reviewer recorded confirmation with the employer, together with a source reference, reviewer name, and verification time.

A listing is not verified simply because it was published, imported, or updated. A check records what was known at that time; employers can subsequently close vacancies or change terms.

Sources and missing information

Employer careers pages, court and regulator notices, university announcements, and the issuing organisation’s application instructions are the preferred references. A third-party report is identified as a source, rather than treated as employer confirmation. A missing stipend, deadline, eligibility rule, or application link stays unspecified. A missing deadline does not mean applications are rolling.

Dates and closed opportunities

Publication, last update, and last verification are separate dates. Editing a page does not refresh its original posting date. A date-only closing deadline is interpreted through the end of that calendar day in India unless the source states a specific time. Closed pages can remain as clearly labelled archives and link to alternatives. Consult the employer’s notice for the authoritative closing time.

Stipends, salaries and firm comparisons

Static firm compensation figures and application lead times are editorial estimates unless a dated evidence record is shown. They are not an offer, a verified survey result, or a guarantee. Office, practice, period, role, payment conditions, and the distinction between salary and total compensation can change the meaning of a number. Our research methodology sets out the information needed for a publishable benchmark.

Reviews and firm claims

Public submissions require moderation. Submission alone does not verify a student, an experience, or a firm’s ownership of a profile. Sample reviews do not count toward public ratings. A claimed-profile badge requires an actual ownership check. Aggregate review totals must come from the records included in the calculation.

Editorial responsibility and AI assistance

Harshvardhan Mudgal is Lawlit’s listed founder and point of contact. A named reviewer is displayed when a listing has a complete verification record. We do not assign professional qualifications or personal authorship when those details have not been provided. AI-assisted extraction or summarisation is not evidence of accuracy; readers should consult the linked source, particularly for judgments, legal rules, and recruitment requirements.

Report a correction

Email office@lawlit.in with the Lawlit page URL, the disputed fact, a supporting source, and the date of any change. Avoid sending confidential documents or personal applicant information. A substantiated correction should update the affected page and its feeds; a new verification date is recorded only when someone actually repeats the check.
