OLAWALE TEDUNJAYE

@olawaletedunjaye1

I’m a Head of Chambers and legal associate focused on legal research and counsel.

What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a practice where I can lead within chambers, strengthen legal research, and serve clients with consistency and professionalism—while continuing my legal study and growth in an organization that values reliable counsel.

I’m a Nigerian lawyer with an LLB (Second Class Honours) and a BL from Nigeria Law School (2017). I bring disciplined legal training and a research-first mindset to every matter.

My early legal exposure included a Student Externship Program with Deji Soremi & Co. I also served through the NYSC at the Ministry of Justice in Umuahia, where I worked as an Associate Counsel and built strong professional fundamentals.

From 2019 to 2021, I supported legal practice through Providence Legal Aid Initiative (PLAI) as an Associate Counsel, and I have also worked with Wole Olajire & Co. Most recently, I’ve been Head of Chambers at Seyi Raheem & Co. since 2020, helping drive day-to-day legal leadership and coordination.

Beyond practice, I commit to continuous learning through Legal Research and Study, and I maintain balance through poetry. I want to join a team where I can combine counsel, research, and chambers leadership to deliver dependable legal support.
