As a part of our Legal Due diligence services we have gained expertise in enabling our clients undertake mergers and acquisitions and to decide private equity investments. We identify issues and concerns in connection with the proposed acquisition, merger or private equity investment and undertake a comprehensive due diligence study.
The objectives of the Due Diligence study are:
➥ To assess the benefits and liabilities of the proposed acquisition by assessing all legal aspects of the past, present, and predictable future rights and liabilities of the target company.
➥ To identify the target company’s strengths and weaknesses, relevant risks and advantages within the legal framework, in connection with the proposed acquisition and to minimizing the risk of unexpected liabilities.
