What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a litigation-focused role where I can deepen my litigation strategy and courtroom advocacy, continue drafting legal processes and conducting research, and manage case files with strong client communication and procedural compliance.

I’m a Junior Legal Associate at Eluwa & Eluwa Chambers, Umuahia, supporting active litigation matters through case preparation, legal research, and court documentation. I’ve drafted 20+ legal documents—including motions, affidavits, and correspondence under supervision—and analyzed legal issues and precedents to support litigation strategy. I also manage and maintain accurate records across multiple case files to ensure court procedure and compliance.

Earlier, I served as a Legal Intern at M.O. Biayeni & Co and as a Student Clinician at Abia State University Legal Clinic—Okigwe Prison Department, where I supported smoother hearing processes through detailed research and concise case summaries and assisted with pro bono reviews of 15+ case files under faculty supervision. I’m called to the Nigerian Bar (Jun 2024) and I’m focused on developing litigation strategy and courtroom advocacy skills grounded in ethics, courtroom conduct, and professional discipline.
