About Nigeria Lex

Better information about Nigeria's legal market

Who We Are

Nigeria Lex provides independent research and market intelligence on Nigeria's corporate legal market, helping investors, businesses, financial institutions and professional advisers make informed decisions about legal capability and market conditions. Nigeria has one of Africa's largest and most sophisticated legal markets. Yet reliable, independently researched information about the capabilities and experience of its corporate law firms and practitioners can be difficult to obtain, particularly for organisations entering the market or instructing Nigerian counsel for the first time. Nigeria Lex was established to address that information gap. We research and analyse the Nigerian corporate legal market to provide independent insight into firms, practitioners, transactions, sectors and emerging areas of legal expertise.

Our Purpose

Our purpose is not simply to identify prominent names. We seek to understand where demonstrable capability exists, how that capability has been developed, and where particular expertise may be found.
