Ibrahim Abdullahi is the Founding Partner of DalaHill Law Practice and the architect of the firm’s distinctive vision. Together with a group of visionary colleagues, he established DalaHill with a bold ambition to reimagine the traditional law firm model in Nigeria by building a trusted advisory firm that operates with the insight, responsiveness, and solution-orientation of top-tier management consultants, while remaining deeply grounded in legal excellence.

Under his leadership, DalaHill was positioned not merely as a provider of legal services, but as a long-term strategic partner to clients, a firm designed to support businesses, institutions, and investors across their entire lifecycle, from concept and structuring to execution, growth, and transformation. This founding philosophy continues to define the firm’s culture and approach, distinguishing DalaHill as a radical and forward-thinking practice in Nigeria’s evolving legal and business landscape.

Professionally, Ibrahim provides strategic leadership in corporate, finance, and investment advisory. He brings extensive experience in corporate and commercial law, trade and investment structuring, public-private partnerships, and complex transactional advisory, with a particular focus on high-impact infrastructure and development-driven projects. His work spans multi-sectoral transactions, institutional frameworks, and investment facilitation initiatives, placing him at the intersection of law, policy, and commercial development.

Ibrahim is currently on leave of absence following his appointment to the public office, where he leads investment and development initiatives for a North Central state. In this role, he has built an exceptional track record of strategic partnerships, investment mobilization, and unprecedented growth, advancing institutional reforms, and delivering transformative economic outcomes.

DalaHill continues to build on the enduring legacy of Ibrahim’s founding vision, sustaining its commitment to innovation, excellence, and trusted advisory partnership.
