Legal Audit

Most mid sized businesses discover a compliance gap when a regulator, an investor or an acquirer finds it. A legal audit inverts that order. We establish what applies, test what is actually in place, and produce a register that can be worked through in priority order.

WHAT WE DO
• Applicability mapping across corporate, employment, tax, data and sectoral obligations
• Documentary testing against filings, registers and minutes
• Statutory register and secretarial record examination
• Contract portfolio review for expiry, renewal and unfavourable terms
• POSH and employment documentation audit
• Data protection readiness assessment
• Licence and registration validity check
• Gap register graded by exposure and remediation effort
• Remediation plan with owners and timelines
• Periodic re-audit and closure tracking
