Yes, it is very common to use 'Tas nav pareizi' to express that a situation is unfair.

Almost. 'Tas ir nepareizi' is slightly more formal, like saying 'That is incorrect' vs 'That's not right'.

Because it describes the situation 'Tas' (it) generally, which requires an adverb in Latvian grammar.

It can be. It's better to say 'Man šķiet, ka šeit ir kļūda' (I think there's a mistake here) to be more diplomatic.
