Lawyer | Social Impact Leader | Disability Rights Advocate | Education Champion
Dr. Prada O. Uzodimma, Esq., is a distinguished Nigerian legal practitioner, visionary entrepreneur, and award-winning social impact leader whose work bridges the worlds of law, education, and social justice. She is the founder of Principle Legal Consult (PLC)—a fast-rising, solution-oriented law firm known for its strategic advisory, high-profile litigation, and reputation for excellence across both private and public sectors.
At PLC, Dr. Uzodimma has led and secured victory in landmark cases, including the Imo State gubernatorial election petition at the Supreme Court, and continues to advise government bodies, multinationals, and private clients on complex legal matters including corporate law, contract negotiation, regulatory compliance, and electoral disputes. She is widely recognized for her mastery of law, her bold redefinition of what it means to deliver legal services, and her deep commitment to empowering clients with clarity and confidence.
As a passionate believer in access to justice and educational equity, she founded the Prada Uzodimma Law School Scholarship Grant (PUSG)—a transformative platform that has funded over 50 indigent aspiring lawyers across Nigeria. More than a scholarship, PUSG includes a structured mentorship program, an interactive Fireside Chat Series, and a career-launching Internship Program, which has helped beneficiaries secure placements in top law firms and government institutions. The initiative has been praised by national legal leaders and is redefining legal empowerment for underrepresented communities.
Dr. Uzodimma is also the co-founder of The Ability Life Initiative (TALI), a disability rights advocacy organization promoting inclusive education, healthcare access, and social integration for persons with disabilities. Under her leadership, TALI has delivered impactful programs including the TALI Tab Project (an AAC software initiative for children with cerebral palsy), workshops on learning disabilities in public schools, and a UNESCO-supported para soccer tournament—all driving forward the national conversation on disability inclusion in Nigeria.
Her work has earned her numerous accolades, including commendations for her leadership in legal education and her groundbreaking citation of Dr. Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala at the Nigerian Bar Association Annual General Conference 2024.
Beyond the courtroom and advocacy, Dr. Uzodimma is a media thought leader, frequently featured on national TV and radio platforms where she breaks down legal concepts for public understanding—amplifying awareness on human rights, gender justice, and legal reform.
Currently pursuing a PhD at the University of Greenwich (UK), her research continues to explore critical intersections between law enforcement and maritime security in Nigeria. She also holds an LLM in Maritime Law from the University of Southampton, where she earned the Dean’s Award for Excellence, and an LLB from the University of Surrey.
With every initiative she leads, Dr. Prada Uzodimma proves that the law is not just a profession—it is a tool for justice, nation-building, and lasting change. Her career continues to serve as a bold blueprint for young women, lawyers, and entrepreneurs across Africa.
