Legal Due Diligence
Buy-side, sell-side and lender diligence with findings ranked by deal impact.
A diligence report that lists three hundred observations without ranking them is a liability transfer, not advice. LexNova's reports lead with the findings that change price, structure or the decision to proceed, and put the rest in an annexure.
We run buy-side diligence for acquirers and investors, vendor diligence for sellers preparing an exit, and security-focused diligence for lenders. Where a defect can be cured before completion, we say how and by when.
What this service covers
Buy-side, sell-side and lender diligence with findings ranked by deal impact.
Red flags first
An executive summary of deal-breakers and price-adjusting findings ahead of the detail.
Cure paths, not just problems
Each material finding carries a proposed remedy, condition precedent or indemnity.
Sell-side readiness
Vendor diligence run early so defects are fixed before a buyer's counsel finds them.
Frequently asked questions
- How long does diligence take?
- A focused review of a small private company typically takes two to three weeks from a complete data room; larger or multi-entity targets take longer, and the data room's quality is usually the constraint.
- Can findings be reflected in the transaction documents?
- Yes. We translate material findings directly into conditions precedent, specific indemnities and warranty qualifications in the share purchase or investment agreement.
- How long does a legal due diligence take?
- A focused diligence on a mid-sized private company typically takes two to four weeks from the point the data room is populated. Incomplete disclosure, not review capacity, is the usual cause of delay.
- What does the diligence report cover?
- Corporate records and title to shares, material contracts, licences and regulatory standing, litigation and contingent liabilities, employment, intellectual property, real estate and financing security — each with a risk rating and a recommended contractual remedy.
- How do diligence findings affect the deal documents?
- They drive specific indemnities, conditions precedent, price adjustments and warranty carve-outs. A finding is only useful when it is converted into protection in the share purchase or investment agreement.
- Can you run vendor-side diligence before a sale?
- Yes. A vendor diligence lets you find and fix defects — unregistered charges, missing minutes, unstamped agreements — before a buyer's counsel uses them as price leverage.
