Mergers and acquisitions involve far more than executing a purchase agreement—each phase demands thoughtful legal strategy, structured processes, and coordinated execution to protect the business and enable long‑term success. This session will explore the legal department’s end‑to‑end responsibilities throughout the M&A lifecycle, from early due diligence and deal structuring to contract negotiation, regulatory compliance, and post‑closing integration.

We will highlight how Legal Operations plays a crucial role in ensuring deals move efficiently and compliantly, often stepping in at a moment’s notice to support project management, outside counsel and vendor coordination, and the smooth transition of contracts, systems, processes, and data. Attendees will gain a practical understanding of the operational frameworks that help legal teams manage risk, maintain continuity, and drive value through each stage of the transaction.
