We are a firm that invests in its people with the same seriousness with which we invest in our clients. If you are a lawyer of exceptional ability and genuine commitment, we want to hear from you.
At Oluwaseto F. Oluseto & Co., we believe that the quality of our people is the quality of our firm. That means we invest genuinely in the development, wellbeing, and professional fulfilment of every lawyer who joins us — not as a talking point, but as a practice.
Our lawyers get real responsibility from the beginning. You will not spend your first years summarising files and attending court as an observer. You will work on substantive matters, carry real instructions, and develop as an adviser and an advocate — under close supervision that challenges and equips you, not supervision that merely checks your work.
The firm's commitment to academic rigour — rooted in our founding principal's teaching background — means that knowledge development is woven into our culture. We run internal seminars, encourage publication, and support attendance at CLE events and bar association programmes.
Substantive work from day one. You will be challenged, trusted, and developed — not sidelined.
Internal seminars, publication support, and a culture that prizes legal knowledge and intellectual rigour.
Direct mentorship from the principal partner — a practitioner of twenty years' standing with academic depth.
We take matters that make a difference — to clients and to Nigerian law. You will be part of that mission.
Our recruitment process is rigorous but efficient. We respect candidates' time and commit to responding to all applications within ten business days.
Send your CV, a covering letter, and your academic transcripts to the firm's recruitment contact. Cover letters should be specific about the role and your relevant experience.
All applications are reviewed personally by a senior member of the team. We assess academic record, relevant experience, writing quality, and cultural fit with the firm's values.
Shortlisted candidates are invited for a two-stage interview: a competency interview with a senior associate, followed by a substantive discussion with the principal partner on legal knowledge and approach.
Successful candidates receive a written offer within five business days of final interview. Our onboarding programme ensures you are ready to contribute from your first week.
We welcome speculative applications from exceptional lawyers at all levels of experience. Send your CV and a covering letter at any time.
