What does a tort lawyer do?

Tort law deals with civil wrongs that cause loss or injury outside a contract: negligence, nuisance, trespass, defamation and similar claims. Lawyers act for people seeking compensation and for defendants and their insurers. The categories of tort and the limits on damages differ markedly between common-law and civil-law countries.

How do I choose a tort lawyer in Rivers State?

  1. Ask early about the time limit for bringing a claim, since limitation periods vary by country and type of harm.
  2. Check how fees work; in some countries contingency or conditional fee arrangements are allowed, in others they are restricted.
  3. Keep medical records, photos, witness details and receipts for every loss you are claiming.
  4. Confirm the lawyer is admitted and in good standing with the bar or law society in Nigeria, and ask who will handle your matter.
