Due diligence – legal examination of companies, enterprises, and real estate
Due diligence of companies and enterprises
Purchasing shares in a company is a straightforward transaction. A much greater challenge is examining the substance of the company in which we are becoming a shareholder, and sometimes the sole owner. When we purchase shares, we are buying a “bag” without knowing anything about its contents. Our role is to provide all information about the history and risks arising from the company’s activities to date.
In cooperation with tax advisors and certified auditors, we prepare comprehensive audit reports that are not limited to legal issues, but also cover tax and financial issues.
Real estate due diligence
The purchase of land or a building is also a serious transaction. Real estate is encumbered with various titles. The buyer of real estate may be liable for the debts of their legal predecessor.
Investing in the property we intend to purchase is only possible if permitted by local law (local zoning plan, decision on building conditions).
The role of the law firm is to provide legal certainty to the buyer of the property, which we achieve through a dedicated investigation.
