Successful legal review uncovered hidden risks

The ARROWS law firm team conducted a thorough legal review of the client's commercial real estate portfolio, during which it uncovered a number of hidden legal risks and encumbrances both within and outside the land registry. It then coordinated the entire process of removing and addressing these risks and encumbrances in cooperation with technical specialists and other advisors. Thanks to this in-depth due diligence, the planned acquisition was successfully completed smoothly and with full legal certainty for the client.

The ARROWS law firm comprehensively reviewed the legal status of all properties in the planned acquisition portfolio. The lawyers checked the data in the land registry, related documents in the collection of deeds, and the actual condition on the ground. This allowed them to identify hidden deficiencies, such as the lack of legal security for the only access road to the complex or part of the building constructed without a valid building permit. At the same time, the ARROWS team uncovered all potential legal restrictions, such as unregistered easements, liens, preemptive rights, or ongoing disputes that could jeopardize the transfer or future use of the properties.

Based on the findings, ARROWS immediately took steps to eliminate risks and ensure the smooth completion of the transaction. The firm's lawyers negotiated with the neighboring owner to establish the missing right of way, initiated additional legalization of the unauthorized construction in cooperation with the building authority, and ensured that all identified legal defects were resolved prior to the transfer. At the same time, the ARROWS team prepared complete contractual documentation for the acquisition, including setting up an escrow account so that the purchase price would be paid to the seller only after all liens had been deleted from the land register. The result is a successfully completed transfer of the real estate portfolio with a "clean" title, carried out without delay and future legal complications. ARROWS thus protected the client from potential losses amounting to millions and enabled them to take full advantage of the newly acquired real estate for further business ventures.
