Questions
Before you book the call.
- Do you build a matter management system specifically for corporate & transactional practices?
- Yes. It runs on the same MATTER Method as everything else I build, configured for how corporate & transactional actually moves: Checklist- and closing-date-driven. The matter is done when the conditions are satisfied, not when a court rules.
- What does the system actually track for a corporate & transactional matter?
- Every stage from term sheet to post-closing, the facts that matter most for this practice (deal value, outside date, conditions met), the document set the matter actually produces, and one computed read: closing readiness, % of closing conditions satisfied vs. days to the outside date, with a readiness-slope warning.
- Can I get this through MatterOS, or does it need a custom build?
- Both. It ships as a configured practice pack inside MatterOS for solo and small-firm workflows, or as a private, purpose-built system when a firm needs more control over data, integrations or workflow. Either way, we start with a short call to see which fits.
- Do you also handle litigation technology and expert witness work for these matters?
- Separately, yes, under the same practice. If a matter needs digital evidence structured or presented in a US courtroom rather than just tracked, that is the second half of what I do. See the Services page for how that engagement runs.

Corporate & Transactional is one of the twenty-two packs inside Practice Pack Blueprints, the stages, vitals, deadline logic and document set for this practice, ready to install yourself. Two minutes on the readiness audit will tell you honestly whether that's enough, or whether this practice needs the full build.
Bring me the corporate & transactional matter. I've probably built this before.
