Arbitration

When matters can be resolved outside the courtroom, Olaniwun Ajayi undertakes arbitration and other forms of alternative dispute resolution on behalf of clients. The cases we take are often complex and high profile led by two Senior Advocates of Nigeria and other partners highly experienced in commercial arbitration, and working on behalf of a range of clients including commercial and government entities, our team focuses its efforts on ensuring that our clients’ matters are resolved as quickly, without recourse to expensive and often long-drawn-out courtroom battles.

 

In addition to our expertise in Nigeria, we have also successfully represented clients before international arbitration courts and tribunal in cities around the world. Worth of note is our work representing a local investor in an ICC Arbitration against a Turkish counterparty taking place in Geneva. With an understanding of advocacy and negotiation, as well as a balance of legal knowledge, commercial understanding and an in-depth appreciation of our clients’ circumstances, we work to achieve the best possible results for our clients.
