We are a strategic legal counsel for businesses, founders, and individuals.
Who we are
Regville Associates is a Nigerian commercial law firm providing strategic legal advisory to businesses, founders, and private clients across a wide range of industries. We focus on delivering commercially grounded legal solutions that help our clients structure their affairs properly, manage risk effectively, and pursue growth with confidence.
Our practice is rooted in corporate and commercial law, regulatory compliance, transactions, and dispute resolution. We advise clients at different stages of their business lifecycle, from formation and early growth to expansion, restructuring, investment, and exit. Whether supporting a founder-led enterprise, an established corporate, or an individual with complex commercial interests, our approach is deliberate, practical, and outcome-focused.
We believe that good legal advice must work in real business conditions. For this reason, our counsel goes beyond identifying legal issues to providing clear, actionable guidance aligned with our clients’ strategic and commercial objectives. We take time to understand each client’s business model, industry dynamics, risk profile, and long-term goals before advising on structure, strategy, or execution.
Regville Associates is particularly experienced in advising founders, entrepreneurs, and business owners. We understand the legal and commercial pressures they face, including ownership and control dynamics, regulatory exposure, contractual risk, and long-term value preservation. Our work often involves helping clients make critical decisions that shape the future of their businesses, from equity structuring and governance to transactions and dispute management.
