M&A, private equity, joint ventures, acquisition financing, and the commercial agreements that hold them together — counsel for the moments when a business changes shape.
Our Commercial Transactions practice represents Nigerian and international clients across the full lifecycle of corporate activity — from formation and growth-stage financing through cross-border M&A, restructuring, and exit. We act for sponsors, strategic acquirers, family-owned businesses, sovereign-backed entities and founders.
The work is rarely about a single document. It is about coordinating tax, regulatory, financing and corporate-law strands into a structure the client can live with for the next decade.
We staff transactions tightly. A senior partner is responsible for every matter we run, and our deal teams are sized to match — never bloated, never under-resourced. Where matters touch other practices (taxation, regulatory, employment), we bring in those colleagues directly rather than hand off the question.
A 30-minute call with one of our partners — under privilege, no obligation — is usually enough to scope the work.
