What does OAA Law do?
- OAA Law is a full-service law firm in Lekki, Lagos advising on litigation and arbitration, corporate and commercial law, real estate and general legal matters. The firm acts for individuals, entrepreneurs, businesses and organisations across Nigeria.
How do I verify land title in Lekki?
- Conduct a search at the Lagos State Land Registry and obtain a certified true copy of the title documents before paying. A lawyer should also check for government acquisition, confirm the seller's identity and authority, and inspect the land physically.
Is arbitration enforceable in Nigeria?
- Yes. Arbitral awards are enforceable in Nigeria under the Arbitration and Mediation Act 2023, and foreign awards are recognised because Nigeria is a party to the New York Convention. Enforcement is by application to the court, which may refuse only on limited grounds.
Does OAA Law handle insolvency and debt recovery?
- Yes. OAA Law advises businesses and creditors on debt recovery, restructuring and insolvency options under Nigerian law. The right route depends on the debtor's financial position, any security held and the commercial objective.
