A legal audit is a service offering comprehensive verification of a company with a view to its acquisition or takeover. The legal audit enables a final valuation of the company and allows for the development of a negotiation strategy by obtaining additional arguments. The primary task of due diligence is to carry out an objective analysis of the state of the company with a view to identifying strengths and weaknesses and indicating potential threats. The legal analysis of the company is a key success factor in an acquisition transaction, as it allows the risks associated with the transaction to be estimated and the timing of the transaction to be properly planned.
Due diligence is essential not only for Mergers & Acquisitions, but also in connection with the company's flotation on the public market. The need for a legal audit may also arise from the necessity to assess the actions of the company's management.
