Financial-legal advisory for business in Ukraine and the EU

For an owner and a CFO, it is critical to have one reliable picture of reality: what is happening to margin and cash flow, which legal and compliance risks are embedded in contracts and ownership structures, and what a bank or investor will see during a review. In practice, issues are rarely “purely legal” or “purely financial”: a transaction fails due to KYC/AML, CAPEX escalates without change control, and profit erodes because of weak accounting rules, contractual leakage, and insufficient operational governance.

LigLex addresses this as one integrated system: transactions and compliance, corporate finance, and project execution — with a single accountability logic and tangible deliverables: documents, models, policies, and management tools.

1) Transaction support and compliance
We engage where the cost of error is highest: a deal, partnership, financing, or a bank/investor review. The focus is controlled risk reduction and an evidence-ready position.

• KYC/AML outsourcing: structuring and packaging the company/UBO profile, source of funds/wealth (SoF/SoW) logic, responses to compliance queries.

• M&A advisory: negotiation support, financial-legal logic of terms, transaction structuring.

• Due diligence: legal and financial review, risk map, prioritization of “deal breakers,” recommendations for protections in SPA/SHA and related documentation.

• Legal transaction support: contract models, SLAs, liability, arbitration/jurisdiction, IP protection — aligned with the financial model and the project risk profile.

2) Corporate finance and advisory
This track is for situations where revenue exists, but profitability is not controlled: numbers are not trusted, plan-vs-actual is late, and decisions are driven by assumptions rather than data.

• Organizational, legal, and financial structuring: roles, accountability perimeter, target ownership/contracting model, controllable flows.

• Finance function setup: period close cycle, policies, KPIs, accountability, management reporting for the owner and CFO.

• Management accounting build & audit (P&L / Balance Sheet / Cash Flow): recognition rules, analytics, responsibility centers, “single source of truth.”

• Budgeting implementation: revenue/cost and cash budgets, limits, rolling forecast, plan-vs-actual, controllable cash flow.

• Investment project analysis: financial models, NPV/IRR/payback, scenarios and stress tests, covenants, assumption substantiation.

• Management reporting IT systems: requirements definition, selection/implementation, data quality control and reporting integrity.

3) Project execution support
When an initiative is strategically important but not core (IT implementation, construction, certification, EU market entry), companies often face scope creep, schedule slippage, and unclear accountability. We act as an external governance layer and execution discipline.

• PM/PMO outsourcing: plan, budget, risk and change management, transparent sponsor reporting.

• Lean management: flow acceleration, waste reduction, higher predictability of quality and timelines.

• Business and market development (incl. the EU): go-to-market, partnership models, baseline legal-financial infrastructure for expansion.

• International commercial law: contractual protection in cross-border relationships, sanctions/compliance aspects, controllable payment and liability terms.

How we work: from assessment to implementation and support

Our delivery model is designed so you receive not “advice,” but a managed outcome — with clear steps, artifacts, and control points:

1. Discovery — data collection and interviews; review of current numbers, contracts, structure, and compliance profile.

2. Roadmap — diagnostic report and an actionable change plan: what to fix in finance, legal, processes, and documentation; what is critical for banks, investors, and counterparties.

3. Implementation — execution with your team: management reporting and budgeting setup, bank/investor-ready packages, contract model adjustments, and delivery control.

4. Support — agreed period support: responses to bank/investor requests, refinements, and sustainability control for processes and metrics.

What this delivers in practice:

• fewer “surprises” in deals and negotiations through early risk identification and properly packaged evidence;

• trusted management reporting (P&L / CF / Balance Sheet) and plan-vs-actual discipline;

• project controllability: schedule/budget/quality managed through change rules and clear reporting;

• readiness for bank/compliance/investor questions without last-minute firefighting.

If you want to identify which risks and leakages are most critical in your case, start with a diagnostic session — we confirm inputs, objectives, and the work perimeter for your situation.
