I help founders structure, protect, and grow businesses through law and strategy.
What I'm looking for
I help founders, startups, and creators turn ideas into viable, well-structured businesses through corporate and commercial law, contracts, intellectual property, and business advisory.
At Olisa Agbakoba Legal, I conducted legal research and drafted opinions on complex matters spanning diplomatic immunity, digital-economy legislation, energy-sector restructuring, maritime law, and environmental litigation. I also contributed comparative legal analysis and a nine-chapter Joint Ventures Manual.
My legal experience includes externships with the Rivers State Government and High Court of Justice, Rivers State, where I supported legal opinions, civil and criminal matters, litigation assignments, and courtroom learning. I have also led community legal education initiatives through the Abia State University Law Clinic in partnership with NULAI.
Beyond law, I bring experience in branding, marketing, positioning, and content strategy from working with brands and communicating product value directly to customers at ZTE Corporation. I write about practical business, law, branding, marketing, and strategy on LinkedIn and through my weekly newsletter, Grace & Growth.
