Overview
We conduct structured legal and secretarial due diligence covering corporate records, statutory compliance, contracts, litigation and title, and deliver a clear risk report.
For companies preparing to raise or sell, we also run sell-side diligence so you fix issues before an investor finds them.

How we approach it
Frequently asked questions
Buy-side vs sell-side diligence?
Buy-side protects an investor/acquirer; sell-side helps a company clean up before going to market.
How long does it take?
It depends on company size and record quality — we scope timelines upfront.
What are common red flags?
Missed ROC filings, unsigned agreements, unclear cap tables and pending disputes.
How far back does a typical due diligence review go?
Usually the full life of the company for corporate and statutory records, and a reasonable recent period, often 3-5 years, for contracts and litigation, depending on scope agreed.
What if diligence uncovers a serious issue mid-transaction?
We flag it immediately with severity and remediation options, so you and your counterparty can decide how to proceed — price adjustment, condition precedent, or walking away.
Is due diligence only relevant for large companies?
No — even early-stage startups benefit from a lightweight diligence check before their first institutional round, since basic gaps are common and easy to fix early.
