FOUNDER & ATTORNEYEmil Ovbiagele, JD, MBA
Emil is an award-wining attorney and the founder of OVB Law & Consulting, S.C. He is known for his knack for creating customized legal and business solutions for his clients.
Emil founded OVB Law & Consulting out of a need to transform how small businesses view and use legal services. Despite being the bedrock of our economy, closely-held businesses tend to view attorneys as pariahs. Often, this distrust is built on prior bad experiences, hawkish billing practices that aren’t aligned with client goals, unreachable attorneys, unattainable promises, lawyers who fail to understand their clients and the practical business effects of legal decisions, etc.
