Are you currently in M&A?

Yes

Hi guys, I still need help. I feel like it’s a really straightforward practice area, but I just don’t know what everything is yet. Is there a simple outline that anyone recommends?

1. VDR
2. DD memo/Supplemental requests
3. Ancillaries
4. Transaction docs
5. Checklist
6. Term negotiating
7. Pre-signing matters
8. Sign
9. Pre-closing matters
10. Closing and closing set deliverables

Is this about right?

If you’re in M&A look at your current firm’s closing checklists to understand this
