Core Capability

Startup Advisory & Litigation

Two engines drive the firm: building companies properly from the first document, and defending them properly when a dispute arrives. Most clients need both — so we run them under one roof.

Startup & Growth Advisory

Founders · SMEs · listed organisations

We consult for startups, SMEs and listed organisations across the full commercial arc — from choosing the right vehicle and getting incorporated, through raising money, to the transaction that takes the company to its next stage. Because our data protection practice sits in the same office, a startup gets its regulatory posture built in from day one rather than retrofitted after a breach.

  • Formation & structure — entity selection, incorporation, shareholder and founder agreements, share-capital structuring and corporate governance.
  • Fund-raising & negotiations — term sheets, investor negotiations, due diligence support and closing mechanics.
  • Mergers & acquisitions — transaction structuring, diligence, documentation and post-completion integration.
  • Regulatory build-out — data protection compliance, privacy policies, sector licensing positions and filings with the relevant agencies.
  • Investment advisory — stocks, bonds and real estate, alongside loan structuring and credit facilities.
  • Intellectual property — trademarks, copyrights and patents secured before the brand becomes worth stealing.
Preventive by design. Our practice goes beyond the traditional approach that reacts only after a problem has occurred. We build the framework that stops the dispute from happening.

Litigation & Dispute Resolution

All courts · arbitration · ADR

The firm currently handles matters across every facet of contentious practice, and we are as comfortable settling a matter as deciding it in trial. Our record shows it: We have settled and finalized multiple cases involving corporations and individuals, with a verifiable success rate in the last 2 years. — versatility that achieves justice for all parties without the cost and delay of a full trial.

  • Civil & criminal litigation — advocacy at every level of court, from originating process to appeal.
  • Monetary claims & debt recovery — enforcement strategy built around actually recovering, not merely winning.
  • Liquidation & credit facilities — insolvency, security enforcement and facility disputes.
  • Arbitration & ADR — a fully established arbitration practice, with mediation and negotiation used first wherever it serves the client.
  • Data protection & digital rights litigation — the newest addition to our arsenal, and the field in which we are front-runners.
  • Real estate & consumer disputes — title, possession, and claims against financial, digital and public-sector operators.
Every case is approached differently based on its peculiarities, and we adopt the best method to achieve the client's objective — not the method that bills the longest.
Client Technology

Watch Your Matter Move

EBA runs an internal business tool that monitors the progress of every case we accept. Each brief is broken into phases and tasks, each task carries an owner, a timeframe, status, and the whole ledger updates live as the work advances.

Instead of chasing your lawyer for an update, you open the tracker and see exactly where the matter stands, what was completed this week, what is next, and if anything is waiting on you.

Private to the briefVisible only to you and the lawyers working on your matter. No one else in or outside the firm.
Access after onboardingReleased once you are properly onboarded and the necessary payments have been made.
Fewer update requestsAll parties see the same progress at the same time, so status calls stop being necessary.
Our Approach

From Brief to Delivery

Ten stages from the first consultation to the letter of completion — and a ledger that keeps updating long after it. Slide through the process.

01 / 11 Commencement
  1. Stage one

    First Consultation Meeting

    We take the brief in full — what the matter is, what outcome you are after, and what the route to it realistically looks like. Nothing is assumed on your behalf.

  2. Stage two

    Preliminary Review

    Before either side commits, the brief is examined on its merits, so the advice you get next is grounded in fact rather than optimism.

    Litigation & advisoryPreliminary case review
    PropertyPreliminary search
  3. Stage three

    Issuance of Engagement Letter

    The scope, the terms and the delivery cost go into writing. You know what the work is and what it costs before any of it begins.

  4. Stage four

    Acknowledgement of Payment

    Every payment is acknowledged and receipted. Any further cost is communicated by invoice as it arises — never quietly absorbed into the bill.

  5. Stage five

    The Plan, and Its Honest Arithmetic

    You receive the plan together with what sits behind it — the case for it, the risks in it, and the findings it rests on.

    Litigation & advisoryCase and action plan, with possible pros and cons
    PropertyOfficial search and report
  6. Stage six

    Second Consultation for Approval

    The plan is yours to approve, amend or reject. We consult again and move only on your instruction — your case, your call.

  7. Stage seven

    Implementation

    The approved plan is carried out inside the scope and the budget already agreed with you.

    Litigation & advisoryImplementation of the approved plan
    PropertyDrafting of the necessary documentation
  8. Stage eight

    Progress, Reported Not Requested

    You are told where the matter stands without having to chase anyone for it.

    Litigation & advisoryIssuance of periodic progress reports
    PropertyRegistration of the necessary documents
  9. Stage nine

    Letter of Completion

    The work closes formally, with a letter that says so. A clear end point rather than a gradual silence.

  10. Stage ten

    Refund of Unused Facilitation Fee

    Whatever facilitation fee the matter did not need comes back to you. Unused money is returned, not retained.

  11. And it keeps running

    Continuous Monitoring

    The ledger does not close when the matter does. Every phase, task and figure sits in the case tracker, updated by the lawyers conducting your brief as the work advances — so both sides are reading the same progress at the same time.

Track Record

Notable Transactions

EBA is known for cost-effective yet efficient legal services tailored to the needs and capabilities of each client. Confidentiality privilege restricts us from disclosing our clientele — so we describe our capability, not our clients.

Development & Corporate Finance

Participation in the facilitation of large-scale international loan and development finance transactions, working alongside institutional lenders and their advisers.

Regulatory & Public-Interest Matters

Acting for non-governmental organisations in matters touching the activities of federal regulatory agencies across the data, identity, financial and consumer sectors.

Startup, SME & Listed-Company Advisory

Advising startups, SMEs and listed organisations on negotiations, fund-raising, mergers and acquisitions, and investment strategy across stocks, bonds and real estate.

Data Protection & Breach Litigation

Conducting significant data protection and data-breach matters in partnership with leading organisations in the digital space — work that is helping to shape Nigerian digital law.
