Litigation can significantly affect deal value and closing timelines. Our Litigation Due Diligence provides a complete assessment of the target’s ongoing and potential disputes to help acquirers evaluate financial and reputational risks.
Our team reviews pending and past cases before courts and tribunals including High Courts, NCLT, NCLAT, consumer forums, tax and arbitration bodies. We analyze pleadings, orders, settlements, and enforcement actions to estimate exposure and resolution prospects.
We verify disclosures made by the target and identify undisclosed notices, investigations, or contingent liabilities. Matters such as regulatory show-cause notices, employment claims, intellectual property disputes, and tax proceedings are examined in detail.
Our team categorizes cases based on financial impact and likelihood of adverse outcomes, providing clients with an accurate litigation risk profile.
We also advise on deal structuring solutions such as indemnities, escrow arrangements, or pre-closing settlements to mitigate exposure. Our dispute resolution lawyers combine legal insight with commercial pragmatism, ensuring that all litigation aspects are understood and managed before closing.
