About LTP Solicitors

Legal Partners for Africa's Tech Ecosystem

LTP Solicitors provides strategic legal advisory to technology startups across Nigeria and Africa. We work with founders building serious companies — from incorporation through funding and expansion.

Most law firms react to problems. We prevent them. Our practice focuses on helping tech founders structure properly before issues emerge, avoiding expensive corrections that slow growth and complicate fundraising.

We serve SaaS companies, fintech platforms, edtech startups, logistics tech, AI applications, and e-commerce businesses. Our clients value clarity over shortcuts and build for scale.

MISSION

We exist to remove legal confusion from the critical path of startup growth. Technology founders shouldn't stall because regulatory requirements feel impenetrable or ownership structures remain unclear. Our mission is translating legal complexity into confident action — helping builders focus on their products while we handle the infrastructure that protects what they're creating.

VISION

To be the first call for every serious tech founder in Nigeria when legal structure matters.

CORE VALUES

Preventative Over Reactive

Problems cost less to prevent than to fix. We identify risks early, build protective structures from the start, and help founders avoid complications that emerge during growth or fundraising.

Ecosystem Contribution

We are embedded in Nigeria's tech community. Our work strengthens the ecosystem by raising standards, sharing knowledge, and helping founders build companies that attract serious investment.

Long-Term Partnership

We build relationships with founders who think strategically, value proper structure, and want partners who grow alongside their companies, from formation to Series A and beyond.

Intellectual Rigor

Regulatory landscapes shift constantly. New technologies create unprecedented questions. We stay ahead of changes affecting fintech, AI, data privacy, cross-border expansion, and emerging tech sectors.

PRACTICE FOCUS AREAS

Technology Startups

Our core focus. We work exclusively with tech-enabled businesses — companies building software, platforms, digital products, and technology-driven services. This specialization means we understand your sector's specific regulatory requirements, investor expectations, and scaling challenges.

Sectors We Serve:

  • Fintech: CBN regulations, payment licensing, consumer protection, investment products, NDPA compliance
  • AI & Emerging Tech: IP ownership for AI outputs, training data rights, regulatory positioning, AI vendor agreements
  • SaaS & Software: Licensing, IP ownership, enterprise agreements, data compliance

Startup Lifecycle Support

Formation Stage

Proper incorporation, shareholding structures, founder agreements, initial IP assignments, tax registrations. Getting these right prevents 90% of future headaches. We have incorporated over 100 companies through the CAC process.

Growth Stage

Team expansion contracts, vendor agreements, customer terms, regulatory filings, intellectual property protection. Scaling introduces new legal requirements. From employment contracts to vendor agreements, we help startups scale without creating legal debt.

Funding Preparation

Due diligence readiness, cap table cleanup, IP ownership verification, regulatory compliance audits, investment documentation. Investors examine structure before committing capital. We have prepared startups for due diligence by angel investors, accelerators, and institutional VCs, cleaning up cap tables and resolving compliance gaps.

Expansion Stage

New market entry, licensing requirements, partnership structures, cross-border considerations, employment scaling. Growth across regions multiplies complexity. We advise on cross-border structuring, including Delaware flip structures for startups raising internationally.
