Our Programmes
The JASAN Foundation’s innovative Legal Ecosystem initiative in Nigeria was conceived from the Founder’s deep commitment to strengthening the legal profession and bridging critical gaps in professional development. This vision was inspired by the urgent need to address the decline in the art and culture of legal practice, largely stemming from the erosion of the traditional pupilage system. Our programmes are focused on three thematic areas, each designed to build capacity, inspire excellence, and sustain a legacy of ethical and impactful legal practice:
Mentorship
We provide structured mentorship for young lawyers within 0–10 years post-call, equipping them with the skills, discipline, and professional insight required to excel. Central to this is the #Legacy500 Elite Mentorship Programme that admits carefully selected mentees into a decade-long mentorship journey. Mentees are guided and inspired by a Collegiate of Mentors—distinguished legal practitioners and jurists—who provide diverse perspectives, specialised expertise, and consistent career guidance.
The programme is strategically designed to prepare mentees to attain the prestigious rank of Senior Advocate of Nigeria (SAN) or to be appointed as Judges of Superior Courts of Record in Nigeria. The JASAN Foundation Law, Leadership and Legacy Academy (The JASAN 3LA) manages and delivers this mentorship experience, ensuring it blends professional skill-building, leadership development, and legacy-driven values.
