PocketLawyers Secures Nubia Capital Backing to Scale AI Legal Tools Across Africa
PocketLawyers, a Nigerian legal tech firm, has secured undisclosed funding from Nubia Capital to broaden its AI-based legal services across Africa. Created by lawyer Ngozi Nwabueze, the platform is built to reduce the lengthy legal hurdles that stall business growth across the region.
PocketLawyers’ core offering, PocketAI, streamlines legal research, document creation, invoicing, and case tracking, cutting processes that once took weeks down to minutes. The startup originated from FirstFounders, a venture studio known for efficiently building startups, following a model behind platforms like Twitter (now X).
“More than 80% of African SMEs operate without formal legal frameworks. PocketLawyers is laying the groundwork to change this,” said Davidson Oturu, General Partner at Nubia Capital.
The investment will enable PocketLawyers to expand its footprint and strengthen the continent’s emerging legal tech ecosystem.
