Competition and consumer protection law are critical for ensuring fair markets and safeguarding consumers. At Sambo Muritala & Co, we are committed to promoting market integrity, protecting consumer rights, and holding businesses accountable for unfair practices.
We advise clients on compliance with the Federal Competition and Consumer Protection Act (FCCPA), including merger control, restrictive trade practices, and consumer protection obligations. Our services include filing merger notifications, conducting competition audits, and representing clients before the Federal Competition and Consumer Protection Commission (FCCPC) and other regulatory bodies.

Our past involvement includes advising a telecommunications company on compliance with competition regulations in a merger deal and representing consumers in actions against unfair billing practices. We have also pursued claims on behalf of clients defrauded by misleading advertising and defective products.
We also handle consumer protection litigation, including claims for product liability, defective goods, and unfair contractual terms. Our lawyers have secured refunds and damages for clients harmed by unscrupulous businesses, ensuring accountability.

In addition to corporate clients, we provide advocacy for consumer rights in public interest contexts. We have collaborated with civil society groups to raise awareness about consumer rights and pursued public interest cases compelling regulatory agencies to enforce consumer protection laws.
