Your Rights Matter - Class Action Lawyers Nigeria | Abdul Muhammed Law Practice

We handle select class action claims — often on a contingency basis — where the injury is widespread, the law is clear, and the matter deserves principled pursuit.

 

WHAT ARE CLASS ACTIONS?

A class action allows a group of people with similar claims to be represented by one or more plaintiffs — instead of every person filing individually.

 

It’s ideal for:

Victims of fraudulent investment schemes

Consumers affected by unlawful or deceptive business conduct

Employees harmed by the same corporate action

Residents of a community facing environmental degradation

Persons subjected to the same constitutional violation

 

In Nigeria, class actions are possible, but they are rarely pursued — not because of law, but because few law firms are structured to handle them.

 

Our Approach to Class Action Matters

We treat class action cases as strategic legal projects requiring:

A clear class (people with the same or similar harm)

A legally defined injury (financial loss, health, property damage, rights violation)

A responsible party (companies, government entities, institutions)

Evidence that connects the harm to the defendant’s conduct

Most importantly, we begin with lead plaintiffs — brave individuals who are willing to stand as class representatives. You may be one of them.

 

Why Class Actions Matter in Nigeria

  Thousands of people have lost money in Ponzi schemes

  Entire communities have lost land or suffered pollution

  Consumers have been treated unlawfully by big companies

  Citizens have had rights violated — but suffer in silence

 

And Class actions:

Give victims a real voice

Reduce individual legal costs

Help courts see the full impact

Create momentum that private lawsuits cannot

 

But they don’t happen by accident. They require lawyers who understand:

  How to build a class

  How to pursue strategic redress

  How to fight — even when big names are involved

 

That’s where we come in and the Class Action Examples We Consider

Ponzi Scheme Victim Groups

  Coordinated action against scheme promoters, fund receivers, or collaborating banks

  When 10 or more victims are ready to come forward

Community Environmental Harm

  Claims against mining companies, extractive operators, or illegal polluters

  Particularly in agrarian or semi-urban areas

Digital or Fintech Scams Affecting Many

  Scenarios where a platform, token, or exchange has caused verified loss to multiple Nigerians

Constitutional & Human Rights Violations

  Police raids, illegal demolition, denial of lawful access — affecting a class, not just one person

Consumer Fraud or Misrepresentation

  Mobile network practices, subscription traps, overbilling — when victims are many and traceable

 

How the Process Works

We don’t rush. And we don’t promise headlines. We promise strategy and structure.

Step 1: Class Formation Inquiry

You reach out. We ask clear questions to assess:

 Number of people affected

 Nature of the harm

 Type of evidence available

Legal viability

Step 2: Free Lead Plaintiff Consultation

We speak directly with a potential class rep.

If the case looks viable, we explore how the legal class can be built around them.

Step 3: Internal Legal Review

Our team does a focused review, builds a legal memo, and identifies risks, strengths, and scope.

Step 4: Engagement

If we proceed, it’s with a Class Action Engagement Letter — detailing the scope, obligations, and contingency structure (if applicable).

We may require minimal administrative contributions — but our legal fees are almost always success-based.
