Various private-sector legal issues show how the quality of legal compliance is lacking.

The massiveness of legal audit problems is an urgency to identify legal deviations from the start to measure legal compliance to avoid criminal, civil, and administrative sanctions. However, reviewing the current implementation of legal audits is limited to asset valuation and financial statements, and even then, it does not require private institutions to carry out audits periodically, so they are carried out by certain companies only. This research uses a normative method that refers to laws and regulations accompanied by literature studies in the form of books, journals, and other literature to find prescriptive ideal ideas. The results show that the implications of legal compliance audits stem from a legal vacuum over the audit mechanism, standardization of honorarium, and legality of legal auditors.
