Frequently Asked Questions

What is advoca?
advoca is a legal-tech platform that allows clients to request legal services from verified Nigerian lawyers. It operates in full compliance with the Nigerian Bar Association (NBA) rules, ensuring all engagements are initiated by the client.
Are credits the same as payment?
No. Credits are used to unlock access to submit service requests and initiate chat with lawyers. They help control spam and ensure only serious clients make contact. Payments for legal services are handled separately using NGN (for Nigerian clients) or USD (for foreign clients).
How do clients pay for legal services?
Once a request is accepted, the client pays the agreed fee directly through advoca’s secured payment system.
Can I use advoca from outside Nigeria?
Yes. Clients from any country can use advoca to request services from Nigerian lawyers. Foreign payments are made in USD, and the platform handles conversion automatically for lawyers who receive their earnings in NGN.
Can I choose any lawyer I want?
Clients can view lawyer profiles, but direct messaging or hiring is not allowed until a formal request is submitted and payment is made. All engagements must be initiated by the client.
Can lawyers advertise or look for jobs on advoca?
No. Lawyers are not allowed to advertise or solicit work. advoca is built to comply with NBA rules, where only clients can initiate legal service requests.
What happens if a client or lawyer has a dispute?
advoca holds all payments in a secure milestone system. In case of a dispute, the platform’s support team will review all available communication and take appropriate action to resolve it fairly.
