Direct Access Barrister

Chima Nnadozie Umezuruike

I am dual qualified at both the English Bar and the Nigerian Bar. With a broad civil law practice, I regularly appear in the Civil and Family Courts in both the UK and Nigeria, as well as representing clients in complex cases in the English Civil and Family courts.

Area of Law

Property

Landlord and tenant work, property disputes, contractual disputes, employment law, family law, immigration law and general common law.

What sort of work do I do?

Working remotely from Nigeria, I liaise with clients and solicitors in England, holding conferences, receiving instructions and drafting court documents. I frequently travel to London for interlocutory hearings, case and cost management conferences, trials and appeals, as well as appearing remotely in English courts from Nigeria. Thanks to technology, I can work effectively from any location and clients often comment on the speed and accuracy of my work.
My areas of expertise are co-ownership of property disputes, many aspects of property law, landlord and tenant disputes, trusts and probate matters, contractual disputes, employment disputes, immigration law and family law.

Who do I work for?

I act for individuals, partnerships and companies.
