NigeriaWhat I'm looking for
I’m a young, trained graduate of LL.B Law with 9 years of experience as a Legal Practitioner. I’m a strategic, analytical thinker who brings a detail-oriented, committed approach to every matter.
My experience spans litigation, negotiation, legal drafting, and general commercial advisory. I’m skilled in legal research, preparing legal documents, and interpreting relevant regulations and legislations to support clear, well-grounded decisions.
As an Associate Partner at Lex Auxano & Partners (Dec 2024–present), I represent clients in court, draft legal documents, conduct client interviews and advice, and handle legal research. I manage court processes end-to-end, including preparing court processes and filing court processes.
Previously, I served as a Regional Business Manager at Adron Homes & Properties, strengthening my administrative, planning, and communication skills through day-to-day office operations, staff onboarding, weekly training, and project management. Earlier roles as a Legal Practitioner and Litigation-focused Legal Practitioner reinforced my ability to prepare case files, draft agreements, conduct due diligence on properties, and support litigation under senior supervision.
