About LexCounsel

Two decades of legal excellence in Nigeria

Our History

LexCounsel was established in 2001 by Chief Bayo Adeyemi, SAN, with a vision to create a law firm that combines world-class legal expertise with a deep understanding of the Nigerian legal landscape.

What started as a two-lawyer practice in Ikoyi has grown into one of Nigeria's most respected full-service law firms, with offices in Lagos, Abuja, and Port Harcourt. Over 25 years, we have represented major corporations, government agencies, and individuals in landmark cases and transactions.

Our commitment to excellence, integrity, and client service has earned us recognition as a leading Nigerian law firm by Chambers Global, Legal 500, and the Nigerian Bar Association.
