Transaction advisory and support

Transaction support services consist of a comprehensive set of legal support measures covering all stages of transaction execution. The objective is to minimize risks related to documentation errors, counterparties acting in bad faith, or unilateral modification of agreed terms.

Types of transaction support
Transaction support may apply to various categories of deals, including:

• Purchase and sale of real estate or movable property;

• Provision of services (medical, consulting, etc.);

• Transactions related to construction works, logistics and delivery, or transfer of assets into trust management;

• Gratuitous transfer of property rights (gifts).

• Document preparation and review. The lawyer reviews the counterparty’s documentation and assesses its compliance with applicable law.

• Counterparty due diligence and legality assessment. This includes verification of incorporation documents, assessment of the counterparty’s authority to dispose of assets, and legal capacity.

• Drafting and finalization of contracts and related agreements. If, during the transaction process, it becomes evident that certain terms are missing or not agreed upon by the parties, the lawyer amends the draft agreement and prepares a protocol of disagreements where necessary.

• Claims handling and post-transaction legal protection. In cases where the counterparty fails to perform contractual obligations or is found not to have valid authority over the assets, the lawyer ensures protection of the client’s rights through pre-trial dispute resolution and, where required, court proceedings.

Some of the services that may be included in transaction support:

• Legal due diligence of the asset. This includes analysis of title documents, identification of encumbrances, and assessment of third-party claims.

• Participation in negotiations. The lawyer develops a negotiation strategy and aligns transaction terms with the counterparty.

• Drafting of the agreement. The specialist ensures that all transaction terms are properly reflected and legally structured within the contract.

• Transaction preparation. The lawyer coordinates with the bank regarding the use of a meeting room and safe deposit facilities, and agrees on the place and timing of the transaction execution.

One of the core responsibilities of a notary is to verify the identity of individuals signing important documents, confirm their understanding of the content of the document or transaction, and ensure that they are signing voluntarily, without coercion or undue influence. In certain cases, a notary may administer oaths or obtain sworn declarations confirming the truthfulness and accuracy of the information contained in a document.

Impartiality is a fundamental principle of notarial practice. A notary is bound by strict professional duties and is therefore prohibited from acting in situations where a conflict of interest exists. The public relies on notarial verification as a safeguard against fraud, corruption, and personal bias.

We work exclusively with vetted notaries who have been verified through transactional practice.
