What I'm looking for

I am looking for a dynamic law firm where I can grow my expertise in corporate and commercial legal practice.

I am a dedicated and detail-oriented law graduate with a strong passion for corporate law, commercial litigation, and dispute resolution. My educational background includes a Bachelor of Laws (LLB) from Olabisi Onabanjo University, where I graduated with a CGPA of 4.0/5.0, and I am currently pursuing my Barristers at Law qualification at the Nigerian Law School.

Throughout my professional journey, I have gained valuable experience through various internships, where I honed my skills in legal research, contract drafting, and property transactions. At S. Boladale Alabi & Co, I conducted extensive legal research and assisted in drafting court processes, ensuring compliance with client deadlines. My role at Regal Solicitors involved conducting property searches and drafting legal documents, which further enhanced my analytical and communication skills.
