If you got this information in an email, it's a scam!  Please be careful.  They usually claim that there is a large amount of money that they need to transfer to your bank account.  If you did get it in an email, go to this site:  www.419.bittenus.com\nAlso, report the person both to wherever the email address is from (hotmail, yahoo, et cetera), and to wherever you hold your email account.\nIt's not likely that a person could be registered as an attorney in both Nigeria and UK.

He sent you an email? Why would he do that? Do you need a lawyer in Nigeria? Did you request that lawyers email you to assist you in some problem?\n\nThe usual procedure is that you instruct a Solicitor (attorney) who will then instruct Counsel on your behalf. Counsel do not contact you - and most certainly not just at random.\n\nThere are a lot of scams being operated out of Nigeria, many of them by people claiming to be in the legal profession. These are generally known as "419 Scams" after Section 419 of the Nigerian Penal Code.\n\nBasically someone claims to have access to a stack of money (or sometimes mining rights or real estate) but they need you to help them get it - perhaps by posing as a relative of a dead person who was supposed to own all this money or perhaps by providing an overseas bank account to which the money can be transferred.\n\nTHERE IS NO MONEY\n\nThe scammer will then tell you that they need money from you to help them release or transfer the funds, bribe officials, cover expenses etc etc. The idea is to bleed you dry and they will keep asking for more money until you either realise what they are up to or you have sent them every last penny you own.\n\nSee my Best Answer on this subject at>>>\nhttp://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AvlbofavYBD7sP8WPDU4SSTsy6IX?qid=20060822094049AAq9VIQ

Well, I'll admit my knowledge of West Africa isn't exactly top-notch, but my first thought when I hear Nigeria is the 419 email scheme. (See source for more info.) Not exactly a great PR booster.

Don't know him personally but you can find out info about him by calling the Florida State Bar to verify this type of information.  BTW-I don't think you have this guy's name right.  "Paul Perim" typed into Google returns zero results.  That seems highly unlikely for an attorney.

do you suppose it's just the same people from nigeria...just using different names?  I'm sure the people, on the whole are quite nice and law abiding.

Nigerians can get anything!! Nigerians are masters of illegal document production.  What do you mean no Visas?  They can fake anything.  Have you not heard of 419'ers?

In UK, it is an office lawyer (i.e. one that does not appear in Court).  In US, it is a pimp.

This sounds like some kind of scam.  Are they from Nigeria?

I imagine some large firms have offices in the UK, but If you are planning to apply for a visa to travel to the US, you have to deal directly with the US consulate in your area.  The consulates don't deal with lawyers, generally.  You can do an online consulatation with some lawyers in the US that have websites.

Theres a legal advice bureau in England, theres solicitors.co.uk and the law society governs and registers all solicitors in the UK.\nSimply search engine query should turn up the relevant information - try the UK version of dog pile.

It's quite difficult, not impossible but with many restrictions regarding what cases you can cover. Not too sure if you're allowed to take the local bar exam. The following might be helpful: Role of a Foreign Lawyer\n\nForeign law firms and foreign lawyers practising in Singapore can not apply for a practising certificate, thus are not able to give legal advice on Singapore law. Foreign law firms and foreign lawyers wishing to practise foreign law in Singapore must be registered with the Legal Profession (International Services) Secretariat of the Attorney-General's Chambers. In some cases, foreign lawyers are employed in local law firms as consultants on foreign law practices. More information on foreign lawyers and foreign law firms practicing in Singapore can be found at the Legal Profession (International Services) Secretariat at: http://www.agc.gov.sg/lps/index.htm

I'm pretty sure it's a PR firm.  I have a friend that works for Ogilvy.  I am not sure about the Laiang & associates tho.  Could be something else.
