Pro bono & community

Free services to the poor and indigent.

Public interest litigation is our corporate social responsibility and how we promote good governance and the rule of law in Nigeria.

Pro bono

Human Rights and Public Interest Litigation.

We take a keen interest in the observance of the rule of law, and our Human Rights and Public Interest Litigation department champions that cause.

We offer free services to poor and indigent citizens whose rights have been grossly infringed but who have no resources to pursue their grievances in the appropriate forum.

Human rights practice

In August 2026, our Principal/Managing Partner was inaugurated to the Governing Council of the Legal Aid Council of Nigeria.

He was also a member of the team that drafted the Fundamental Human Rights (Enforcement Procedure) Rules, and has presented at a training for pro bono lawyers organised by the Public and Private Development Centre (PPDC).
