@oluwatosingiwa1
Results-oriented legal attorney specializing in litigation, dispute resolution, and corporate advisory.
What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated legal attorney with over five years' experience in litigation, dispute resolution, probate and corporate commercial advisory. I have personally handled multiple civil matters from pre-trial through rulings and served as counsel on record across a firm's litigation portfolio.
My practice spans courtroom advocacy at Magistrate, State and Federal High Courts, and the Court of Appeal, alongside strong capabilities in drafting motions, writs, written addresses, commercial contracts, JVAs and legal opinions. I also manage probate matters, trademark/IP issues and regulatory compliance for corporate clients.
I deliver high-quality work under pressure, maintain strong attention to detail, and prioritize client communication and collaborative teamwork. I seek to grow within a dynamic, forward-thinking law firm or organization where I can add immediate and long-term value.
