Global Expertise in Litigation and Arbitration Practices
In Nigeria, as it is in other jurisdictions, there are various methods of resolving conflict amongst parties. The method of resolving disputes includes both litigations which is basically a court-related way of settling disputes and Alternative Dispute Resolution methods which are generally an out-of-court settlement of disputes. Alternative Dispute Resolution methods include Mediation, Arbitration, Conciliation, etc.
We provide a professional and efficient legal service, whether in a courtroom, Arbitration/Tribunal hearing, or other dispute resolution forum.
We are proactive in resolving disputes in the best interest of our clients, emphasizing the need to be efficient and expedient in the chosen course of action.
If formal litigation is ultimately unavoidable, our approach is to try to resolve disputes in the most cost-effective way possible. Our team of solicitors have significant experience both in Civil litigation procedures and Criminal Litigation practices of various jurisdictions in Nigeria.
As a result of the time expended to get to trial and as well as the Appeal procedures that are available to aggrieved parties, Arbitration is regarded as an alternative to Litigation. Arbitration is a speedy and effective means of resolving disputes. A number of our lawyers are members of the Chartered Institute of Arbitration United Kingdom, and the Institute of Chartered Mediators & Conciliators and they also have experience in both domestic and international Arbitration.
Our team’s focus is to maintain excellent standing for its Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) practice, with notable experience in arbitrations across Africa.
Our clients include non-government entities, government, state-owned entities, and financial institutions.
