Closing Checklists

Closing checklists serve as a central repository for tracking a complex array of moving pieces for a multitude of stakeholders over the course of a transaction. Commonly, junior associates are tasked with creating and maintaining closing checklists to manage this project. Doing so effectively requires a junior associate to discern and capture all relevant tasks and responsible parties for a deal, to update those tasks and their status as agreements and information changes, and to communicate appropriately with all relevant parties. This course teaches junior associates how to do all that, while following best practices and dodging the pitfalls to which juniors often fall prey.
