We successfully persuaded a Nigerian Court be moved to New York to hear proceedings and take the vital evidence of some citizens of the United States who were too ill to travel to Nigeria in a $28,174,646,400 Trademark and Patents case against Exxon Mobil. The Judge agreed with us and proceedings were moved to New York. It was the first time in the history of Nigerian legal jurisprudence that a Court was moved to a foreign land to hear proceedings. That case received a lot of coverage in the Nigerian and international press. We successfully led a team of several lawyers that led to the dismissal of the case at the Federal High Court, The Court of Appeal and the Supreme Court of Nigeria.
