Smart Contract Legal Audit
A specialized review to verify that a smart contract's programmatic functions align with its intended legal purpose and associated agreements.
Request ConsultationEnsuring Your Code is Your Contract
While a technical audit checks for bugs and vulnerabilities in your code, a legal audit answers a different, equally critical question: does your smart contract actually do what your legal agreements say it does? A mismatch between the code's execution and the legal intent can lead to disastrous disputes and liabilities.
Our firm pioneered the Smart Contract Legal Audit. We bridge the gap between lawyers and developers, meticulously reviewing your smart contract logic against your terms of service, whitepaper, and other legal documents. This ensures true alignment and provides assurance that "code is law" in your ecosystem.
Technical Literature: Core Areas of a Legal Audit
We verify that the functions and outcomes of the smart contract code accurately reflect the terms and conditions set forth in the corresponding legal agreements, whitepaper, and user-facing documents.
Identifying potential scenarios where the smart contract's execution could lead to unintended legal consequences, such as loss of funds, violation of terms, or disputes between parties.
Assessing whether the smart contract's automated functions (e.g., fee distribution, token locking, governance voting) comply with relevant financial regulations, securities laws, or other legal requirements.
Delineating which obligations are automatically enforced by the smart contract versus those that remain as off-chain legal commitments, and ensuring this distinction is clear to all parties.
- Conducting a clause-by-clause review of legal documents against smart contract logic.
- Providing a formal "Legal Audit Report" that identifies discrepancies and potential legal risks.
- Collaborating with your technical auditors to ensure a holistic review of the system.
- Recommending changes to either the legal agreements or the smart contract logic to ensure alignment.
- Certifying that a smart contract system, from a legal perspective, operates as described in its documentation.
