Awodein. It conducts a diversified business practice
with its head office in the prestigious UBA House at the
commercial nerve-centre of the city of Lagos, Nigeria.
The firm has established close bonds with
international associations of repute and has an
extensive network of corresponding and associate offices
around the world. Indeed, the firm is the only Nigerian
member of GLOBALAW, a worldwide network of law firms in
about 109 countries of the world.
Our goal is to represent clients in the
best traditions of the profession. The firm provides
competent, efficient and effective legal representation
and counseling to its clients in an atmosphere of
absolute trust and confidence.
Realizing the rapidly changing business
environment as well as the increasingly international'
character of most business operations, the firm's
intention is to keep on developing its range of skills
to meet new demands and thus adapt in the light of these
changes..'
The firm takes pride in its reputation
for excellence, responsiveness and uncompromised
professionalism. We credit our success to tile
understanding that a law firm exists to serve its
clients.
We place a great deal of emphasis on contiI1uing professional
development. Members of the firm are regularly invited
by professional, business and academic organisations to
teach, lecture and publish.
We endeavour to keep our clients and friends
informed of pertinent developments in the law. To this end
we publish a newsletter; we distribute bulletins if
warranted by urgent developments; we regularly hold briefing
sessions for clients whose businesses are affected by
particular changes in the law;
The strength of our firm derives from the
ability of our lawyers to respond to clients' needs with a
keen business sense and a practical approach to the law. The
firm is departmentally structured but we encourage
interaction amongst
Lawyers to ensure efficient and comprehensive
results. The firm is also well
known for the strength of its litigation team
aimed at producing a speedy and cost effective solution for
the clients.
Sometimes, this is achieved by proceeding to
a full hearing including, where necessary, any appellate
procedures. In many cases, however, the initiation of the
most appropriate interim remedies increases the opportunity
for effective settlement at an early stage.
Computerized legal research, litigation
support systems and trained legal assistants aid our trial
lawyers in controlling complicated cases and we continually
invest in upgrading our hardware, software and communication
systems.
In addition, we subscribe to some on-line
legal services which allows us to exchange documents and
electronic mail with clients and other law firms and gives
us access to legal business and publishing data bases.
