What I'm looking for

I'm looking for remote legal, compliance, or program-support work where I can manage litigation records, documentation, client coordination, and regulatory tasks across teams operating in multiple jurisdictions.

I've supported active litigation at the Oyo State Ministry of Justice, managing 30+ files across the State High Court, Federal High Court, and Court of Appeal with zero missed deadlines.

I improved the Ministry's documentation and record-keeping system, increasing retrieval efficiency and team productivity by 15%. I also contributed research, drafting, witness preparation, and coordination to land-dispute resolutions and Court of Appeal judgments.

As an independent Legal & Compliance Consultant, I translated legal risk into practical recommendations for startups and small businesses, including a Terms & Conditions review against NDPA, GDPR, and US data-protection frameworks.

My work also includes end-to-end client intake for 25+ clients, litigation drafting, IP research selected for publication, and cross-border stakeholder coordination. I bring common-law legal training, WIPO IP certification, and Clio legal AI fluency to remote legal, compliance, and program teams.
