From Makurdi to the Top 1%: Benedict Ater on Excellence, Pressure & Purpose

From Makurdi to the Top 1%: Benedict Ater on Excellence, Pressure & Purpose

It’s a bright day in November in Nigeria, that familiar mix of soft harmattan breeze and gentle sunshine settling over the city. Against that backdrop, the Thrive Team sat down for an exclusive conversation with the Best Graduating Student of the Nigerian Law School Backlog Class of 2024/2025, Benedict Ater. What followed was a deeply insightful and inspiring dialogue about excellence, pressure, resilience, and purpose. We’re excited to share this conversation with you, and we hope you enjoy reading it as much as we enjoyed having it.Q: So nice to have you here on Thrive Trailblazers. Can we meet Benedict Ater, beyond the academic legacy? Who are you?A: Thank you; it’s a pleasure to be here. At my core, I’m someone who believes in showing up fully and giving my best to whatever is committed to my hands. Long before the grades or recognition, I’ve always had a natural drive for discipline, excellence, and doing even the small things with intention.From being called “the indomitable Ater” in primary school to navigating secondary school, university, and law school, that mindset has stayed consistent. Beyond academics, I’m someone who values purpose, meaningful relationships, healthy competition, and balance. Ultimately, I’m committed to growing, staying grounded, and honouring every opportunity with integrity and hard work.Q: Everyone sees the result, but let’s start with the roots. What personal experiences or values shaped your approach to excellence long before law school?A: Thank you very much for this question. I believe it is necessarily foundational. Excellence for me has been a lifestyle, a non-negotiable constant as far back as I remember. To trace the roots, I have to go as far back as primary school. Even then, I knew I had the instinct to put in my best shift in the tiniest responsibilities. I consistently topped my class, and I fondly remember my teacher grabbing me by the arms, raising me high and declaring me “the indomitable Ater” at every assembly session at the end of each term. I came to consciously make efforts to develop my attitude to be one of indomitability over obstacles and challenges. I took the same attitude to secondary school, then to university and ultimately law school. So long before law school, I developed the desire and ability to give my best shot. For me, it is about satisfying my conscience that I could not have done any better, so I easily come to terms with outcomes. In other words, an attitude for excellence affords me some measure of outcome independence. But the awesome thing about this mindset is it affords me the ability to hit consistent highs rather than settling for the bare minimum.Q:What was your why through it all, the internal reason that kept you grounded when things got tough?A: Throughout my journey, tough days have been abundant, I dare say even more regular than the really good ones. But I try to take each day as it comes and think about my goals, which keep me grounded and going. It is easy to get distraught and distracted when you lack definite goals or a concrete reason you do anything. For instance, if you don’t have a set outcome, tough times will have you negotiating whether you should settle for less.I knew I wanted to get a First Class from the law school. I also knew the program was just for nine months or less; somehow, the realization that I would be done with the program in nine months gave me the ability to summon extra strength when frustration tried to set in. My why is really about identifying my goal in a particular season and vigorously giving it all I have. I think of my goals as a shore I have to swim to while drowning at sea; there are very few, if any, alternatives in that situation than actually swimming to shore.THE LAW SCHOOL EXPERIENCE: BEYOND THE STEREOTYPEQ: Law school is often described as a marathon, not a sprint. What did endurance look like for you in practice?A: I think law school is a bit of both worlds. It is a marathon in a sense, but also a sprint in some others. There are times you will need the sense of urgency a sprint requires, and there are other times you will require the patience and strategy that characterise a marathon. Be that as it may, endurance for me was showing up every day, even when I had reason not to. It was long hours of studying. Endurance also meant having the wisdom to know when to rest and take a break. I took a nap and made sure I slept very well almost every day of my law school experience. Q: How did you balance the pressure to perform academically with the need to protect your peace and mental health?A: Pressure? The pressure was immense. I will give you a little backstory. I graduated from Benue State University, Makurdi. The Faculty of Law at the university was established in 1993. And since the inception of the faculty, only one person previously had a Bachelor of Law degree with first class honours, and that was in 2008. I became the second person ever in the history of the faculty to achieve the feat. You know, the unfortunate thing for me? The other person who had a first class in 2008 also made another first class at the law school. Naturally, the pressure was really on for me. In fact, one of my professors pointedly told me, “Ben, don’t go to law school and disgrace us.” For him, not getting a first class from law school meant I had disgraced the faculty. Everyone who knew me expected me to get a first class from law school. I mean, that was a lot of pressure. But I had learnt to reframe pressure, to morph the pressure to perform into motivation to go over and beyond. That was the same thing I did in the circumstances; I reframed that pressure into motivation and gave law school my best shot. I also tried not to think of the expectations and what they meant; I only allowed the expectations to drive me. That way, I kept my peace, and I dare say my mental health never took a direct hit.LEARNING, STRATEGY & DISCIPLINEQ: Did your study process evolve between the first term and Bar Finals?A: It did, but not much. Before I resumed law school, I took the time to watch lots of videos and read articles written by former law school students. That helped a lot. One prominent takeaway I had was the utility of taking studies seriously from the very first day of lectures. That’s exactly what I did. After every lecture, I read the topic taught for the day and made sure I understood the principles. I usually use weekends to revise the topics taught during the week. When it was closer to Bar finals, my focus was on testing my grasp of the topics across the various courses, practicing with past questions, having a firm grasp of the drafts and also practicing MCQs. So I would say my study process did evolve from having a broad understanding of the topics to ensuring surgical precision in my grasp of the core principles and refining that with practicing past questions.Q: Everyone says, “consistency is key,” but what does consistency really mean to you on a personal level?A: Yes, consistency is really key. But we always run the danger of subsuming such truths into clichés that can easily get glossed over. Consistency for me is showing up every day like it was day one. And if you think about it deeply, it is better to consistently show up every day and put in little shifts that add up exponentially, than showing up with maniacal energy one day and sitting out the next. Q: How did you navigate relationships, friendships, study groups, and competition in a high-stakes environment like law school?A: The law school is a community, and as in every community, interaction between members is important and maybe even necessary for survival. I made a few friends at law school. However, I can’t stress enough how important it is to make friends with people with whom you share the same goals. It makes everything a bit easier. During my externship, I had this group of friends with whom I attempted class tasks across the various courses every night. We were from different campuses, which meant we sometimes had diverse ideas and approaches to the same problem. This was very important for me since I was able to get a feel of what was happening in other campuses. I also took part in group meetings as much as I could. I even represented my group in the moot trials as lead counsel, and we came out on top. Summarily, even in a high-stakes environment like the law school, isolation is never really the best idea. In a nutshell, I tried to make friends and share time with others while recognising the wisdom in moderation.Q: What did rest or fun look like for you, and how did you avoid the guilt that often comes with taking a break?A: Guilt? Only undeserved breaks will make you feel guilty. I tried to earn mine. For instance, a night out with friends after studying for two straight weeks never elicited guilt from me; rather, I was really focused on enjoying the moment because I knew I had worked very hard and totally deserved it. However, fun meant several things to me. It could be playing football at the law school, which I regularly did, attending a party which seldom happened, catching up with friends over social media, or just taking a well-deserved nap.Q: What’s the biggest reality check you’ve faced since leaving law school? How have you been able to navigate the space between expectation and reality in your post-law-school journey?A: Well, the truth is, I expected nothing to be handed to me; I knew I would have to work extremely hard to not only cement my place, but to prove I am worthy of it. I am still taking the days as they come, and my estimation of what reality is like after law school hasn’t proved to be false, yet.Q: Many new lawyers struggle to find a footing in the job market. What’s your honest take on that experience, and how are you approaching it?A: The job market for new wigs is actually very crazy. Almost all new wigs usually desire to start practice at some top-tier firm, but that’s an impossibility because there are so many people these firms can take. Outside the top-tier firms, remuneration becomes a big issue. I have call mates who have mentioned during discussions that some firms offered them as low as twenty-thousand naira per month as salary. I mean, that’s absurd considering the prevailing economic realities and cost of living. But that’s the sad situation, which I believe needs urgent reform. In my case, I would say I was fortunate enough to get the grades I got, so things have been a bit easier. You know, firms are willing to open their doors to you if they perceive you are the kind of talent they are looking for.Aside from that, it is also important to optimise the factors within one’s control to get the best outcome, aiming for the best grades possible, undergoing internships, and building relationships within legal circles; these help to more advantageously navigate a very competitive job market. At least that has been the experience.Q: You’ve achieved something historic. How do you process recognition without letting it define you?A: I believe an obsessive love for recognition is a slippery slope that can quite easily mutate focus from the grind that produces the recognition to recognition itself. When that happens, then it becomes easy for one to fade out. I am sincerely thankful for the recognition this achievement has afforded me. I met the Governor of my state, several leaders in the legal profession reached out to say a word or two, and that is great. But I also know that I must attack my next obstacles with the same intensity and vigour that brings recognition. I try not to let my life be defined by recognition; rather, the work that produces the recognition is where my focus is. More than anything, I interpret recognition as a responsibility rather than a crown.Q: If you could speak directly to law students currently navigating the chaos of preparation, what truth would you tell them that nobody told you?A: Well, I think they may have already heard what I will tell them, the only thing is I’ll urge them to actually believe it – they are going to be fine. That bar finals can be the easiest exams they’ll ever write, but what will determine that outcome is the quality of preparation they put in.Thank you so much for your time, Benedict. This has been incredibly insightful, and I’m certain so many, myself included, will draw real inspiration from your journey and the honesty you’ve shared today.

How to Price Your Legal Services - What They Don’t Teach You in Law School.
Career Insight

How to Price Your Legal Services - What They Don’t Teach You in Law School.

One of the hardest things for many lawyers to learn is not drafting, litigation, or negotiation. It is pricing.Not necessarily because legal work is impossible to price, but because legal services are not products sitting on a supermarket shelf with fixed price tags. Every brief is different. Every client is different. Every instruction carries a different level of responsibility.So many lawyers struggle with one simple question: “How much should I charge?” You start wondering whether the fee is too high, too low, or whether the client will disappear the moment they hear the amount.But legal practice is still both a profession and a business, and learning how to properly price your services is part of building a sustainable career. Here are some practical things every lawyer should consider before quoting professional fees.Understand the Nature of the WorkThe first thing to consider before fixing a fee is the nature of the service itself. Not every legal task should be priced the same way. A simple tenancy agreement is different from a shareholders’ agreement. A routine filing is different from handling a regulatory investigation or a complex transaction.Even where two matters look similar on the surface, the level of thinking, risk assessment, negotiation, drafting, and responsibility involved may be completely different. Clients sometimes only see “a document” or “a court appearance,” but they do not always see the legal judgment behind every clause, review, or strategic decision.Your fee should reflect the actual value and responsibility attached to the work, not merely the physical output handed over at the end.Know the Market and Seek GuidanceFamiliarize yourself with applicable scales of charges and standard industry practices, as these can provide helpful benchmarks when determining professional fees. It also helps to know what lawyers within your practice area or location generally charge for similar services. There is nothing wrong with speaking to senior colleagues or mentors, especially when dealing with unfamiliar transactions or high-value matters. Sometimes a simple conversation can prevent you from drastically undercharging or overcharging for a service.However, this should not become blind copying. Your pricing may differ because your level of experience, speed, service quality, niche expertise, or availability is different. Cheap pricing is not always competitive pricing. In some cases, extremely low fees may even make clients question competence.Consider the Client and the CircumstancesPricing is not always rigid. There will be situations where you intentionally reduce your fees because the client is a friend, a referral, a startup business, or someone genuinely in need of help. There may also be matters you decide to handle completely pro bono because they align with a cause you care about or because you simply want to help someone access justice.On the other hand, there are situations where charging higher fees is justified. An urgent matter requiring immediate turnaround, a transaction involving significant value, or a client demanding constant availability may naturally attract higher professional fees because of the increased responsibility and pressure involved. There are also clients who can comfortably afford premium legal services and expect premium attention in return.The important thing is to be intentional. Discounts should be deliberate, not pressured. Higher fees should be justified, not exploitative.Create a Basic Pricing StructureOne practical thing that helps many lawyers is creating a basic pricing structure for recurring services.You do not always need to start calculating your fees from scratch every single time a client calls. Over time, it helps to have internal fee ranges for services you handle regularly, whether consultations, agreement drafting, company registrations, compliance filings, property transactions, advisory work, court processes, or retainership arrangements.This does not mean every matter must be priced identically. Some briefs will still require adjustments depending on urgency, complexity, risk, responsibility, or the client involved. However, having a structure makes pricing less emotional and more consistent.It also helps you communicate your fees with more confidence because you already have a working system instead of guessing under pressure.Confidence Matters: Stop Pricing From FearMany lawyers undercharge because they are afraid of losing the client. While that fear is understandable, constantly underpricing yourself eventually creates bigger problems. You become exhausted, overworked, resentful, and undervalued.Not every client is your client, and clients who genuinely understand the importance of quality legal services are usually willing to pay for competence, responsiveness, professionalism, and peace of mind. Sometimes the problem is not even the amount. It is how the fee is communicated. If you sound unsure, apologetic, or hesitant while quoting your fees, clients notice it immediately. You do not need to overexplain or defend your pricing aggressively. State your fees clearly and professionally. Confidence reassures clients that they are dealing with someone who understands the value of their service.At the end of the day, pricing legal services is part legal judgment and part business judgment. And like every other skill, it improves with experience.Allow Your Pricing to Grow With YouThe truth is, most lawyers learned pricing from experience, observation, mistakes, and guidance from others. Lawyers should not be afraid to revisit their pricing as they grow. The lawyer who charged a certain amount two years ago may now have significantly more experience, better drafting skills, stronger technical knowledge, improved systems, and greater professional value.Your pricing should reflect your growth. Remaining permanently attached to old fees out of fear can quietly damage the sustainability of your practice.Final ThoughtsAt the end of the day, pricing legal services is part legal judgment and part business judgment. It is a skill that improves with experience.You will probably undercharge sometimes. You may occasionally overestimate a brief. You will learn what clients value most, what works for your practice, and what pricing structure best reflects your services.But one thing every lawyer must remember is this: if you do not value your work properly, clients usually will not either.Written By: Abdulhafeez DamilareEdited By: Chimamanda Augustine
