Navigating the complexities of immigration requires expert knowledge, timely action, and tailored legal solutions. At Smith & Partners LP, we provide sophisticated immigration advisory and representation services to individuals, corporate entities, and institutions looking to travel, work, invest, or relocate across borders.
We offer assistance on visa applications, permanent residency, work permits, expatriate quota processing, citizenship applications, and compliance with local immigration regulations. Our firm also represents clients in immigration-related litigation and appeals, deportation defence, and asylum applications.
We have successfully advised multinational corporations on obtaining expatriate quotas and relevant permits for key personnel, ensuring their compliance with Nigeria Immigration Service regulations and investment laws. One of our partners was involved in a team that led high-profile negotiations with immigration authorities in facilitating smooth entry and long-term stay permits for an international executive relocating to Nigeria to oversee a major infrastructure project.
Our team is currently advising a tech startup on cross-border talent relocation — helping them navigate the legalities of relocating foreign developers to Nigeria, while supporting their international employees with family reunification strategies and documentation.
Smith & Partners LP has also been instrumental in guiding Nigerian nationals through citizenship-by-investment programmes abroad and addressing complex dual citizenship issues. We are equipped to assist professionals, investors, students, and refugees seeking legal clarity and protection under immigration frameworks both locally and internationally.
At Smith & Partners LP, immigration law isn't just about crossing borders — it's about building futures, securing opportunities, and shaping global journeys with confidence and compliance.
