A young Nigerian man who lives and works in the United Kingdom (UK) called Apex Chambers, best Law Firm of Property/Real Estate Transaction Lawyers, Barristers, Solicitors, Advocates & Attorneys with Law Office in Port Harcourt, Rivers State, Nigeria.
He said he had a land case pending in court over a piece of land he bought in Oyigbo Town, outskirts of Port Harcourt, and it turned out that the land had already been sold to some other person.
He lamented that the land case had dragged in court for years now and he was very frustrated.
It turned out he did not consult a Property Lawyer to conduct extensive due diligence (investigations) over the land to be sure that it had no legal issues whatsoever. Instead, he merely asked his family member to look for a land that he could send money across to buy & build his family house.
