Course Description

Clients are especially sensitive to the communications of lawyers when they are facing stressful situations - like M&A deals. In such situations, even if you have the best intentions to protect your client from doing something stupid, minor misunderstandings can lead to clients accusing you of being a "business blocker".

In this training, you will discover a method to minimize the risk of client misunderstandings with your DD reports by implementing a business-oriented communication style.

Training Outcomes

After the course, you will be able to do the following:

  • Target the Pain: Efficiently identify the DD sentences that are going to frustrate clients.

  • Provide Client Care: Quickly transform frustrating DD sentences into client-friendly explanations.

  • Be Effective as a Supervisor: Skillfully provide effective DD feedback to junior colleagues.

Sample Topics

  • Why are lawyers sometimes viewed as business blockers?

  • What are key client expectations regarding the structure of DD sentences?

  • How to quickly transform complex DD text into client-oriented stories?
