During the monthly general meeting of the Nigerian Bar Association’s Abuja Branch yesterday, senior lawyer Afam Osigwe SAN seized the moment to advocate for fairer compensation within the legal profession.

In his capacity as Chairman of the NBA National Remuneration Committee, he rallied his colleagues towards effective implementation of the new Remuneration Order 2023.

In an impassioned speech, Osigwe stressed that the era of lawyers receiving paltry sums for legal services should be relegated to the past. He called upon legal practitioners to embrace and promote the revised payment structure that aims to standardize remuneration.

“This committee stands prepared to go the long haul in ensuring equitable pay for lawyers,” Osigwe declared. “Members of the Bar must become advocates for this new regime, compelling clients to adequately compensate legal services.”

Decrying past disparities where auxiliary services attracted higher service fees, he said lawyers can no longer settle for inequitable compensation. Osigwe envisioned a transformed legal landscape where the rightful value of legal services is recognized.

By championing this cause at the well-attended monthly meeting of Abuja NBA branch members, legal giant Osigwe hopes to inspire collective action across the Bar to implement standardized payment rates. His impassioned plea signals a concerted push towards reforming lawyer remuneration practices.
