Legal & Corporate Due Diligence
Due diligence is the last point at which a bad deal is still cheap. This service reviews the target - a company, a property, or a shareholding in either - and reports in writing what it found, including the things the seller did not raise. It is for buyers, incoming shareholders and investors who are about to move money and would rather know first.
What you get
- A Red-Flag Scan first, if you want a go/no-go in days before committing to the full review
- A document request list, a data room built from what the target actually produces, and a record of what it never produced
- A written LDD report covering corporate standing and licensing, land, litigation, tax, employment and IP - red flags at the front, not in an annex
- The deal protections that follow from the findings: warranties, indemnities, conditions precedent and price adjustments drafted for your SPA
How it runs, step by step
| Milestone | Typical time | What happens / your part |
|---|---|---|
| Red-Flag Scan (optional) | Days | Fast go/no-go on the target company or property |
| Scoping & document request | 3–7 days | We send the document list; you/target assemble a data room |
| Review | 2–4 weeks | We review corporate, land, litigation, tax, employment, IP |
| Report & deal protections | 1 week | You get the LDD report + red-flag memo and the clauses for your SPA |
Typical total: ~3–6 weeks (red-flag scan: days)

Common questions
The seller says everything is clean. Why pay for this?
Because an assurance is not a check. Corporate standing and licensing can be verified against the requirements in UU 40/2007 and PP 28/2025 and against the company's own records; a seller's word cannot. The usual finding is not fraud - it is a licence that does not match what the business actually does, or a shareholder who never properly left.
How long does it take?
A red-flag scan is days. A full review is typically three to six weeks, and the largest variable is not the firm: it is how fast the target hands over documents. A target that is slow with the data room is itself a finding, and it is recorded as one.
What happens if the report finds a problem?
You get three options instead of one: walk, reprice, or paper around it with conditions and indemnities. The report is written to be used in the negotiation rather than filed after it, which is why the red flags carry the clause that answers each of them.
Honest limits
Due diligence reports what can be verified from the sources and in the time available. It cannot rule out what was never recorded anywhere, and a target that withholds documents narrows the review - that limitation is stated in the report rather than smoothed over. Registry and government checks depend on third-party offices and their timing is indicative (2026 practice). Valuation, technical building survey and financial audit are not included.
