Due diligence reviews for acquisitions typically require weeks of attorney time reviewing hundreds of documents to identify contractual risks, liabilities, regulatory issues, and IP concerns. This manual process is expensive, time-consuming, and prone to oversight, with critical risks sometimes discovered too late in negotiations.

This workflow is applicable across multiple practice areas and use cases
Private equity and venture capital firms require comprehensive due diligence reports before making investment decisions in portfolio companies, analyzing legal risks across contracts, IP, and regulatory compliance.
Due diligence is a core component of PE/VC investment processes, with the same legal risk assessment framework used in M&A directly applicable to investment transactions and fund acquisitions.
Asset purchase transactions require detailed due diligence reports examining the specific assets being acquired, including contracts, IP rights, liabilities, and regulatory issues associated with those assets.
Asset purchases involve the same fundamental legal risk analysis as M&A transactions, requiring comprehensive review of contracts, liabilities, and regulatory compliance specific to the assets being transferred.
Corporate finance transactions including debt financing, equity raises, and restructurings require legal due diligence reports to assess corporate records, material contracts, and regulatory compliance before closing.
Lenders, investors, and underwriters demand thorough legal risk assessments similar to M&A due diligence when evaluating corporate finance transactions and capital structure changes.
Securities offerings, IPOs, and capital markets transactions require legal due diligence reports to identify material risks, regulatory compliance issues, and disclosure obligations for prospectuses and offering documents.
Securities transactions demand rigorous legal due diligence to ensure regulatory compliance and proper disclosure, with investment bankers and underwriters relying on these reports to assess legal risks before public or private offerings.
Lenders conducting due diligence on borrowers need comprehensive legal risk assessments covering corporate structure, material contracts, existing liabilities, and regulatory compliance before extending credit facilities.

The report provides comprehensive risk analysis across four core areas: contractual risks (unfavorable terms, change-of-control provisions, assignment restrictions), liabilities (litigation, regulatory investigations, environmental issues, contingent obligations), regulatory compliance (violations, required approvals, industry-specific licensing), and intellectual property concerns (ownership disputes, licensing restrictions, infringement risks). Each risk is categorized by severity and accompanied by specific recommendations for addressing it in transaction documentation.
CaseMark uses advanced AI to systematically review all uploaded transaction documents including contracts, corporate records, financial statements, regulatory filings, and IP registrations. The system extracts key legal findings, identifies unfavorable provisions, flags potential liabilities, and assesses compliance issues. It then organizes findings into a structured report with executive summary, detailed analysis by risk category, and practical recommendations for negotiations and deal structure.
Yes, while the system provides comprehensive coverage of standard due diligence areas, you can focus the analysis on particular concerns relevant to your transaction such as regulatory approvals for specific industries, IP-heavy acquisitions, or targets with significant litigation exposure. The report structure adapts to emphasize the most material risks for your deal while maintaining thorough coverage of all key legal areas.
Each identified risk includes factual detail with specific document citations, legal analysis explaining the exposure, assessment of financial impact and likelihood, and strategic implications for the transaction. The report provides concrete recommendations for addressing risks through representations and warranties, indemnification provisions, escrow arrangements, or pre-closing conditions. Risk categorization helps prioritize which issues require resolution before closing versus those that can be managed through deal protections.
The report explicitly identifies information gaps and recommends specific follow-up investigations or third-party reports needed to complete due diligence. This ensures you know exactly what additional materials to request from the seller or what external experts to engage, preventing surprises late in the transaction process and enabling more complete risk assessment.
