About Detail Dispute Laywers

Detail Dispute Lawyers is based in Lagos and Abuja. Our practice focuses on commercial arbitration, arbitration-related court proceedings, commercial litigation, and dispute strategy. Our work sits where pressure is real and decisions carry lasting consequences. 

We built this firm deliberately. We work with lean teams and stay closely involved throughout each matter. We do things properly. We believe disputes work depends on judgment more than scale, and care more than volume.

Our approach is shaped by three values.

 We are different in how we analyse disputes. We start from first principles, not habit. We take time to understand what the client needs to protect, where the real risks sit, and what will decide the outcome. That discipline helps us choose a path that makes sense and avoid effort that does not.

We are disruptive in how we test ideas. We question assumptions, including our own. We challenge reasoning that is comfortable but weak. We rebuild arguments when they do not hold. This keeps the work honest and the strategy sound.

We are exacting in how we advise and advocate. We raise difficult points early. We speak plainly about risk. We do not soften advice to make it easier to hear. When the facts or the law support a position, we stand by it. When they do not, we say so.

This way of working lends itself to disputes where there is little or no margin for error. Clear analysis reduces wasted effort. Early testing of ideas exposes weaknesses before they harden into risk. Plain advice allows decisions to be made with eyes open, not in hope. 

Clients benefit from strategies that are coherent and defensible. Arguments stay focused on what will decide the case. Positions are taken deliberately, not by drift. When a matter reaches a hearing or an appeal, the case is already structured to withstand pressure.

We do not promise outcomes. We bring judgment, preparation and candour to decisions that matter. Those qualities help clients advance their interests and avoid missteps that weaken their position when it matters most.
