### **4 Do’s And Don'ts For when Adopting a Legal Transaction Management Solution**

## ![contract-4085336_1920](https://info.abovethelaw.com/hs-fs/hubfs/contract-4085336_1920.jpg?width=293&name=contract-4085336_1920.jpg)

Legal transactions are complicated. 

A simple sale of one company to another can require hundreds of documents, working together in an intricate web to effect a legally binding transfer of ownership. 

Unfortunately, these webs of documents are only getting larger and more intricate. And these challenges are compounded by ever-decreasing timelines for deals to get done. 

This is where LTM comes in. 

Legal transaction management software provides a structured workflow that lets transactional lawyers automate away mundane, error-prone tasks they currently do manually. 

Contrary to the recent hype cycle surrounding AI technologies that have failed to deliver sustainable value, **LTM software** represents a return to the basics of using software to augment human efforts. 

Our friends at **iManage** have watched the space evolve over the last decade. They have channeled all of this experience into preparing this guide.

Download their white paper today and in just a few short pages, you, too, will understand what **LTM** is, along with how it can simplify transaction management and the closing process.

**By filling out the form you are opting in to receive communication* *from Above the Law and its Partners.**
