Our Practice Area

We provide pragmatic solutions to help our corporate clients on company law, corporate governance, regulatory and compliance related matters.

We provide company secretarial services to private, public and joint venture companies as well as facilitation of the processes, preparation of policies and legal documentation for both private and public companies. We offered and still offer company secretarial services to one of Nigeria's biggest Medical Diagnostic Company and unbundled the company from a private to a public company. We equally acted as Lead Adviser to the company for their private placement. As a result of our role in the successful private placement, we were engaged and we successfully obtained all regulatory approvals from the Nigerian Securities and Exchange Commission prior to the formal listing of the company at the Nigeria Stock Exchange.

From inception, we have been engaged by numerous clients including Nigerian banks and other financial institutions in relation to bankruptcy and insolvency. Our success rate speaks for itself. As part of our insolvency practice, our firm handled debt recovery for one of Nigeria’s foremost and largest (by coverage area) Private Security Guards company which resulted in our recovery of several millions from their recalcitrant debtors. Our debt recovery practice is on a contingency-fee basis, which means that we are only compensated for our work if we are successful. As a result, we take our responsibilities seriously, when providing representation for debt recovery. Our clients are, however, responsible for out of pocket and miscellaneous expenses including filing fees if the matter progress into litigation.
