I am proud to be a part of ABACL’s journey towards becoming one of the best law colleges in Mumbai. With an extremely enthusiastic Principal such as Vaishali ma’am and an array of highly-qualified, student-oriented faculty, ABACL’s approach towards legal education is practical and multi-dimensional. A powerhouse of talented students, great infrastructure, tirelessly-working staff, and professional faculty, it focuses not only on academics and exams, but also works on every student’s total development including personal skills, sports, and culture. ABACL does not merely produce law graduates; it gives the world dynamic young minds that can think, lead, and harness their knowledge for the betterment of tomorrow.

In what had been an easy and scoring academic career at school, suddenly a 65% at HSC seemed like the catastrophe of the century. While I wallowed in my sorrow, a B.E.S.T. bus brushed past with an advertisement, “NEW LAW COLLEGE IN DADAR! ADMISSIONS OPEN”. Little did I know that this would be the defining moment of my life. This advertisement led me to join ABACL, where studying was like being part of a large family. I got the best opportunities to study law and to develop my personality. From performing well in academics, topping the University of Mumbai in Law of Evidence, to participating and winning in over 15 moot court and extra-curricular competitions at the national level…within 5 years our trophy-cabinet was overflowing! It was not individual brilliance that led us to win, but the atmosphere we studied in. From academics to moots, sports to theatre, we aced it all. Today, I proudly say that I am an alumnus of ABACL, practicing at Bombay High Court and courts all over India. I could not have reached this stage without my college. Because at ABACL, we studied law, but more importantly, we learned to be responsible citizens.

Located in the heart of the city, this state of the art law school has scaled great heights in a short span of 8 years. Since its inception in 2012, Adv. Balasaheb Apte college of law has grown to become one of the best law colleges in Mumbai and has attracted aspiring law students from all over India. It provides robust legal education and training and has all the infrastructure that is necessary for the study of law, including the best law research software and a good library. The staff, both teaching and non teaching is very welcoming, friendly and approachable. The location also provides a great advantage as the college is easily accessible from all parts of the city. Its proximity to the various Courts and Tribunals in the city of Mumbai also makes it a college which everyone must seek. The college also offers several certificate courses in various areas of law such as Cyber law, ADR, media law, etc. The advisory board of the college consists of designated senior advocates of the Bombay High Court. Several eminent jurists and judges of the high court and supreme court have visited the college in the last few years.

My daughter studied at ABA college of Law for a long period of 5 years. It was indeed a great and important period in her life. Her education with academic learning and cocurricular activities was encouraged by the Principal Vaishali Gurav and also by Prof Dr Ashish Borse, Prof Aditya Godbole, Prof. Sagar Mahashabde, Gore madam and other Faculty members. They all are still great teachers and mentors in her life. Mrs Urmila Apte and other college trustees too were particular about overall well-being of the students. Also, Office Registrar Shri Gaurav Bhave and Librarian Dr Seema Gokhale were always helpful. The overall atmosphere of the college was aimed at student’s growth not only as a lawyer but also as a responsible citizen.
