Dorcas Udoh
@dorcasudoh
Lawyer and legal consultant specializing in drafting, research, and contract review.
What I'm looking for
I’m a law graduate and qualified legal practitioner with hands-on experience in legal drafting, research, document review, and client consultation. I work independently in remote settings while maintaining confidentiality and meeting deadlines.
As a Remote Legal Consultant (Self-Employed), I draft, review, and advise on legal documents for clients across various practice areas. I conduct legal research and analysis to support client matters, ensuring professionalism and strict confidentiality throughout each engagement.
Previously, I served as a Legal Associate at K.O. Okoroafor & Co and completed Legal Intern roles at Joe Ukpong & Co and the High Court 4, Uyo. I’ve strengthened my litigation support through document preparation, case file organization, and careful review of legal submissions—while also broadening my expertise with AI-assisted legal workflows (beginner).
