Commercial & Property Law
Our commercial team provides an exclusive service to prospective clients, our mission is to provide our clients with the highest quality legal advisor services possible, which focuses on our key strengths namely, Nigerian Law and all aspects of it’s oil, gas and mineral sectors. We also can offer an equally competitive legal service on matters involving other oil and gas producing African countries.
Good commercial law applies equally to every company. But a good commercial lawyer applies the law according to each company’s individual characteristics.
It is a vital distinction that defines Gabriel Basil’s specialist commercial law team, formed to strike a balance in the new economy between protecting a company’s interests while achieving its commercial aims. We pay close attention to the needs and requirements of our clients and work to desired deadlines. Working with our technical partners we are able to guarantee an excellent professional service in all Nigerian oil and gas deals, and also offer pragmatic advice to international investors on regulatory and domestic law requirements.
Most of us have at some time worked in companies. We are regularly second lawyers to clients so that we are familiar with a company’s features and to ensure that we understand what that company requires from their legal advisers.
The team comprises of expert commercial solicitors covering a broad range of law, including commercial transactions, intellectual, information technology competition and anti-trust issues.
The approach has drawn instructions from company secretaries, finance directors and in-house lawyers representing an expanding number of large clients.
Gabriel Basil has set its commercial team at the core of the firm’s business. That means focused legal specialisation combining skills and experience at least the equal of services offered by City firms – but at substantially competitive fees. In addition our lawyers have practice expertise and specialist knowledge of the Nigerian banking and insurance sector and offer a professional service to newly established foreign banks and financial institutions in the UK on a wide range of issues such as contract information, share dealing, regulatory matters, debt and equity financing, PFI schemes, mergers and acquisitions, and taxation
