About Us
Our History
Amica Law Partners evolved out of the Firm of Okonjo, Odiawa & Ebie established in 1999, as a fully integrated and multi-dimensional law practice, providing legal services to local and international corporations, governments, institutions and individual clients. A rebirth that builds on our prestigious past while blazing forward towards our desirable future became necessary to enable us better position ourselves as a law business for the 21st Century and beyond. Our dreams are big and our Clients have even bigger dreams. We have recalibrated and refined our systems and processes to serve our Clients faster, better and more efficiently in a fast-paced world.
Our singular resolve is to make our Clients’ dreams’ reality, providing them with timely, cost effective and quality legal representation at all times, while delivering real value.
Navigating the business terrain requires advice. Expert advice with in-depth knowledge of local business regulations and practices, government policies and acceptable local norms are requisite to ensure outstanding success. This is what we offer our Clients at Amica Law Partners LLP.
Together, we navigate the treacherous and adventurous waters of commerce, business and personal relationships; to ensure you “OUR CLIENT” arrive at your desired destination – SUCCESS
