Newly qualified lawyer eager to leverage legal training and experience.
NigeriaWhat I'm looking for
I am a newly qualified lawyer, recently called to the Nigerian Bar, and I am eager to leverage my comprehensive legal training and hands-on experience. My externship program with the Ministry of Justice in Ikeja, Lagos State, along with my judicial externship under the Magistrate Court 8 in Ogba, Lagos State, has equipped me with the skills necessary to excel in the legal field.
During my time at the Ministry of Justice, I drafted legal documents, conducted thorough legal research, and engaged in client interviews. My experience at the Magistrate Court allowed me to observe legal proceedings and further hone my research skills. I am passionate about applying my legal knowledge and meticulous attention to detail to contribute effectively to a legal team, ensuring that I provide valuable insights and support to my colleagues.
