Let’s take a look at things this way . There are general doctors , and then there are specialty doctors .

If a lady goes to a doctor and the issues discovered are significantly related to her body , she is referred to a gynecologist .

Same goes for a man with eye problem or a sick child on consultation with a doctor , the man will be referred to an ophthalmologist who is an expert in treatment of eyes and the child to Pediatricians who is an expert in child treatment .

Only specialists can effectively and efficiently tackle the health issue discovered more than the general doctors .

Same thing goes for lawyers and entertainment lawyers in Nigeria . While Lawyers have general knowledge of the issues , Entertainment lawyers in Nigeria are the specialists in the entertainment field that can treat the issue more effectively and efficiently and it is advised they are contacted to handle all issues in the Entertainment industry for higher success rate .
