Our History

The Firm was established in November 2009 with the coming together of Ibrahim Musa Abdullahi Esq with four other equally dynamic and seasoned legal practitioners: MD Marafa Esq, Hassan Isa Esq, Habib Muhammed Esq and Halima Mashegu [Miss] Esq, to form a futuristic law partnership. The objective of the partnership was to provide unrivalled legal services tailored towards and around the client but with strong emphasis on ethics. Mr Siraj Hamza was later admitted into partnership when the four other partners exited at various times to take positions in the Public service. The Firm has maintained its guiding principle of excellence, client satisfaction and ethics in providing legal services to the country and beyond from its 2 main offices in Nigeria’s major cities of Abuja and Lagos.

Our Creed

Our creed is encapsulated by the famous prayer of St Thomas More because of its radiance and hovering over all we believe and how we carry our responsibilities as lawyers.

“Lord, grant that I may be able in argument, Accurate in analysis, Strict in study, Candid with clients and Honest with adversaries. Sit with me at my desk and listen with me to my client’s plaints, read with me in my library, and stand beside me in court, so that today I shall not, In order to win a point, lose my soul”

Sir Thomas More [1478 - 1535]
