Dispute Resolution

As a firm, we strive to avoid unnecessary litigation and dispute for our clients where feasible. Where litigation results or is inevitable, we strive to ensure that the disputes are effectively resolved in the best interests of our clients, within the ambit of the law and with the best possible legal representation.

We commence and defend litigation matters for our clients in courts and tribunals across Nigeria. We are highly experienced in preparing court processes of all types (originating processes, defence processes, interlocutory and appellate processes) in respect of various matters at all the superior courts of record in Nigeria, and we represent clients in contentious matters before courts of record in Nigeria.

We also undertake arbitration and alternative dispute resolution (ADR) procedures, particularly mediation, on behalf of our clients. We are conversant with major arbitration rules like ICC and LCIA rules and mediation instruments such as the Singapore Convention.

We have, as skilful litigators, arbitrators, negotiators and mediation advocates, mastered the art of advocacy and negotiation. We strive to get the best deals for our clients, even in complex disputes. We also strive to ensure that disputes arising from the business and commercial activities of our clients are efficiently resolved with minimum expenditure of time and resources by clients and in the best interest of our clients.
