Due Diligence

Due diligence is the investigation or exercise of care that a reasonable business or person is normally expected to take before entering into an agreement or contract with another party.

It can be a legal obligation, but the term will more commonly apply to voluntary investigations. A common example of due diligence in various industries is the process through which a potential acquirer evaluates a target company, or its assets, for a merger or acquisition.

  • Anti-money laundering
  • Fraud Investigation

  • Civil Litigation
