All Services

Our Full Range of Services

From business registration to investment readiness, we provide strategic legal solutions that empower startups and entrepreneurs to build boldly and legally.

Company Formation And Incorporation

We help founders and entrepreneurs set up their businesses the right way from the start. Our business registration services include guiding you on the most appropriate legal structure based on your goals (e.g., sole proprietorship, limited liability company, NGO), preparing and submitting incorporation documents, drafting foundational documents like Memorandum and Articles of Association, and ensuring compliance with CAC and other regulatory requirements. We also provide post-incorporation support such as filing annual returns, updating company information, and securing necessary licenses. Our goal is to make sure your business is not just registered, but legally protected and structured for sustainable growth.

Trademark Registration

Your brand is one of your most valuable assets — and protecting it starts with securing your intellectual property. We offer comprehensive trademark registration services, including brand name searches, classification advice, filing of applications, and management of the entire registration process at the Trademarks Registry. If objections, oppositions, or infringement issues arise, we advocate for your rights and take appropriate legal steps to resolve them. Whether you're a local startup or expanding globally, we ensure your brand identity name, logo, slogan, or product packaging is legally yours and safeguarded against unauthorized use.

Intellectual Property Protection

Innovation drives competitive advantage, and we’re here to help you legally own and protect your ideas. We offer end-to-end IP protection services that cover copyrights, patents, industrial designs, trade secrets, and licensing agreements. Whether you're creating software, content, inventions, or proprietary processes, we help you register and enforce your rights. Our IP protection strategy also includes advisory on commercialization, licensing, infringement monitoring, and strategic IP management for startups seeking to raise funds, scale, or enter new markets. With Barinaada Legal, your creative and commercial innovations are secure.

Contract Review And Drafting

Solid contracts are the backbone of any successful business relationship. At Barinaada Legal, we specialize in drafting, reviewing, and negotiating a wide range of legal agreements to protect your interests and minimize risks. Our contract services cover founder and shareholder agreements, employment contracts, service-level agreements (SLAs), NDAs, MOUs, partnership agreements, vendor and supplier contracts, investment agreements, and more. We don’t just draft, we ensure you understand the implications of every clause and are fully equipped to make informed decisions. Whether it's a one-time transaction or a long-term relationship, we make sure the paperwork works in your favor.

Complete Business Setup

A legally sound business goes far beyond registration. Our complete business setup package is designed to help founders launch with clarity, confidence, and compliance. We handle everything from legal structure advisory and company policies to regulatory licensing, shareholder documentation, and foundational legal templates. We also assist with setting up employee onboarding processes, board structures, and internal governance frameworks that help you run your business smoothly and avoid future legal complications. Whether you're a solo founder or a growing team, we equip you with the legal structure you need to scale responsibly.

Legal Advisory Service

Running a business comes with daily legal questions and we’re here with the answers. Our legal advisory services provide on-demand, strategic support tailored to the specific needs of startups and high-growth businesses. We act as your outsourced legal counsel, helping you navigate regulatory compliance, corporate governance, investor negotiations, dispute resolution, cross-border expansion, and everything in between. Whether you’re making a key business decision or preparing for a major milestone, we provide actionable legal advice that’s rooted in experience, business acumen, and a deep understanding of Nigeria’s legal and startup ecosystem.

Property Protection

When it comes to buying, selling, leasing, or investing in property, legal due diligence is non-negotiable. At Barinaada Legal, we offer expert support on all aspects of property transactions from verifying land titles and preparing agreements to registering deeds and perfecting titles. We help individuals, businesses, and investors avoid legal traps and ensure their real estate dealings are fully compliant, secure, and risk-free. Whether it’s a residential lease, a commercial development, or a corporate acquisition, we provide the legal clarity and confidence you need to make property decisions that last.
