“We thank the Walther Transaction team for managing the entire transaction process in such an effective and swift manner. The legal sector is changing today more than ever, and businesses are looking for comprehensive, AI-driven solutions to manage their legal workflows efficiently.

Co-CEO, DiliTrust
Approach
Identification, approach and qualification of relevant market players in the German-speaking legal tech market. PACTA soon emerged as the perfect fit for DiliTrust. In close cooperation, the acquiror and seller were able to close the deal quickly.
Challenges
Due diligence and contract negotiations were to be completed within a few weeks. Delays in the process would have led to the deal’s failure. Complex shareholder structure on the target’s side: four founders, one VC, several business angels.
Results
First transaction in the Dilitrust project eight months after project start and six months after identifying the target PACTA. Completion of due diligence and negotiations with PACTA within five weeks. Further transactions in the project Dilitrust are expected.
