I asked TCS for a salary renegotiation, they agreed and they sent the new salary breakup, But they are not sending the revised offer letter, Whenever I ask them they are saying it's in the clearance process you'll receive shortly.
But my date of joining is on Monday, HR is telling me to join & they'll send the updated offer letter within 7 days of my joining, can we trust these words, Has anyone faced a similar situation?Tata Consultancy

The best revenge is living well. It's obvious your opponent is a putz. Ignore him. When he starts conflicts, defeat them thoroughly. When he loses the case, thank him for his time, politely asking when is going to pay, and when he doesn't, levy against his business account.
You eventually become numb to that kind of behavior. At least I did. Whenever someone starts mouthing off I think about other things like my grocery list, what could my dog be up to right now, etc.
Wait... your title says paralegal-- and you were cross examining? Where are you? What state allows this? I want to know all the things!
I'm in Ontario too! The lawyers here are absolutely psychos for the most part. I'm originally from Florida and the behaviour of counsel here is absolutely outrageous compared to what I've seen in my 10 plus year career in Florida. I've probably been to court 1500 times in Florida. Ontario, particularly the GTA, has some despicable lawyers
What state are you in? Iām helping a friend with a small claims matter but itās pretty clear that I cannot represent him. Obviously I can help on anything else though.
I'm currently a licensed paralegal in Canada. Wish I could of more help.
I donāt know what jurisdiction youāre in, but Iāve never heard of an objection of āleading the witnessā to work on cross by a witness the other side called. You could always channel your inner Miranda Priestly and calmly tell the judge: āAn objection to leading on cross to a witness he calledā¦I just donāt understandā¦ā
The paralegal is in Ontario. As someome who has practiced in the States and Ontario, I'll tell you "dirty pool" is just "pool" here and the conduct of lawyers in general is despicable
People who take this tactic (usually men in my experience) lack the expertise to handle matters civilly. When a judge is ruling against the jerk, I try to stay calm and possibly privately laugh. Obviously, the attorney is very threatened by you and you should take the obnoxious behavior as a huge compliment. He cost his client much more than your client (since you are billing at paralegal rates) -- or he wasted his own time if he was representing himself (I don't know about Canadian small claims representation rules). File the experience away in your memory as a huge victory against an asshole. That's where I have stored my unethical asshole memories!
Wait until you are against a litigator who follows the Retile Mind.
Iād ask him where he said he went to law school again. š
