This review is from: Sahakian's due diligence checklists: Questions to ask before you buy or partner with a company (Spiral-bound)

This one is the real thing.

I own several other due diligence books and checklists, but this one is the best. It's the only one I use.

It's thorough to a fault, but its also concise. It's not much more than a hundred pages and it includes a lot of street savvy.

If you have a real deal you're working on this is the one to buy.

You can even purchase a telephone consultation from the author if you run into any problems or have any questions. I ran into a tricky intellectual property problem so I thought I'd try it. I was able to call him up whip out a credit card and get some help right over the phone. Sahakian was helpful, friendly, approachable and helped me get the deal done.

It's a nice package.

This is a basic but great desk reference for the due diligence process. The questions are well framed and organised, and allow the reader to think through extensions of these basics htat might be appropriate for their particular situation.
