Current Opportunities

 

Pioneer Lord Advocate 

One of our objectives is to establish the student arm of our organization – the Legal Magnates & Company – in all the faculties of law of Nigerian universities and around the world. We seek qualified law students to join us in establishing a chapter of the Legal Magnates & Company in their university. The head of the Legal Magnates & Company is the Lord Advocate. If you are interested in becoming the pioneer Lord Advocate of the Legal Magnates & Company in your school, please send your resume addressing the requirements below to submissions@legalmagnates.com. To be appointed as the Lord Advocate, you must:

  1. be in the penultimate year of your legal studies. Law students who are not in their penultimate year may also be considered where circumstances demand;
  2. have attained an academic grade point average of at least second class upper division;
  3. have excellent speaking and writing skills, and
  4. be a team player but also capable of working independently. You must have excellent organizational skills, a positive attitude, and the ability to achieve your goals despite all odds.

To an average law student, the advantages of joining the Legal Magnates & Company are numerous, and they can be both immediate and long-term. Legal Magnates & Company provides an opportunity for academic excellence through its Operation 4.5 (OP45) program. The chamber arm of the group known as Amici Curiae develops the advocacy skills of law students. Students also get to learn the art of client representation right from the university. This inevitably leads to strong mastery of the rules and procedure of courts in civil and criminal matters. Legal Magnates & Company provides networking opportunities for law students. Our students meet many prominent members of the bar and bench through interactive sessions that the Legal Magnates & Company organizes. The relationships created by the Legal Magnates & Company between member law students and eminent legal icons have assisted many members to secure fulfilling employment and internship opportunities in foremost law firms upon graduation. In addition, members of the Legal Magnates & Company pay reduced fees for most of the programs organized by us. There is also nothing as interesting as knowing that you have the contact phone numbers and details of some influential members of the bar and bench whom you have met at various programs organized by us or any chapter of the Legal Magnates & Company some of whom you could speak with at anytime with just a dial away!
