Good day sir. So I am currently reading one of your book "ego is the enemy" and I have to ask should man kill his ego at all time and stage and if so at what point does your dignity have to come in place?

...The meeting turned out to be a highly technical and engaging one. After about five hours of robust discussions between counsel, we eventually reached an agreement.

One thing I love about this profession: every brief is an opportunity to learn something new.

The matter touched on entertainment law and intellectual property—areas I had little practical knowledge of. After a demanding day at work, I spent the night studying the relevant areas and also consulted a colleague experienced in the field...

The life of a lawyer is a dynamic one. On Wednesday, my HOC informed me that I would be attending a meeting with a senior colleague and our client, a movie producer, at the National Film and Video Censors Board (NFVCB) Ibadan, concerning an upcoming ₦300 million movie project...

...by the Act.
In essence, where there remains any reasonable prospect of saving the marriage, the court may explore that possibility rather than hastily bring the marriage to an end.

Furthermore, under Section 15 of the Act, the sole ground for the dissolution of a marriage is that the marriage has broken down irretrievably. The circumstances constituting such irretrievable breakdown are, in turn, provided

For you to be a good and successful lawyer I think there is a tiny bit of your humanity you will have to kill else you won't get the job done

[Richard Adebiyi Adekunle esq @Rascallawyer]

[Richard Adebiyi Adekunle esq @Rascallawyer]

Shivers!! Having my first magistrate court appearance tomorrow. Better late than never 💪

3. You have to find: You have to look for and get clients. Simple!!!

I learnt recently from a senior learned colleague that for you to be successful in the legal profession you need to do three things. You have to:
