  1. Ok. Just to get more information or add to knowledge of legal practice. Otherwise, there’s really next to nothing in terms of making money from a Lawyer or Independent observer, especially if being invited by an individual party to a case. The person never gets more than 10k per court sitting. My Mum has a case of an estate/land agent who duped her in Gwagwalada to the tune of N4m as far back as 2007. The man (Luke Akanno) gave her land documents with a title belonging to someone else. Meanwhile, the physical land itself is in a completely different location from what’s on the land documents. They are in court at Lugbe with one Yoruba Muslim magistrate who has been tossing us up and down and sitting on the case for up to three years now. The police is prosecuting for my Mum from the FCT Area Command, but they can’t win the case. Mum must win it. I attended court sitting twice last year and had to warn the Prosecution that he was being careless in court and giving Akanno’s lawyer room to waste the court’s time. The magistrate cane to Gwags and saw things for himself and now knows that Akanno (a fellow Imo State indigene from Ihitte Uboms LGA) was really out to dupe Mum. However, there’s a counsel who gets 10k for coming to observe the proceedings each time the court sits. Mum wants the value of her N4m as at today. Anyway, this is by the way.

    However, since you’re addressing corporate/legal entities specifically, they should pay much better per court sitting. Or else, just take it that you want to have knowledge of more cases. I never knew you’d like the idea of a lawyer as an independent observer.
