Legal Audit:
In Legal Audit we meet with companies, individual enterprises, partnerships,
corporations, and other types of organizations to discuss strategic plans and
objectives, review key documents and records, and analyse and identify
current and their projected legal needs.

The legal audit also lays the groundwork for the establishment of an on-going
legal compliance and prevention program in order to ensure that the
company’s goals, structure and on-going operations are consistent with the
latest developments in business and corporate law.

Finally, the legal audit helps managers identify the legal issues triggered by
changes in strategies, goals or objectives and allows planning for the legal
tasks that must be accomplished as a result of the issues identified.

In providing legal audit services, we undertake to audit, review and assess the
following areas;
