Backlight Handbook

We understand that for clients, closing a deal is just the start of the journey. It’s important for in-house legal and commercial teams that key information can be readily surfaced, without having to plough through voluminous documentation or involve external counsel. With this in mind, we’ve reimagined the closing bible.

Combining our legal engineering and legal design expertise with insights from our transactional lawyers, we have created a new end-of-matter client deliverable – the Backlight Handbook.

Customisable to suit different clients’ requirements, our Backlight Handbook is a secure, long-term solution providing clients with matter-related data at their fingertips.

From light-touch interactive closing bibles to content-rich matter handbooks, featuring easily-navigable document summaries with hyperlinks to source content, importable key dates notifications, deal team contacts and integrated due diligence and post-closing recommendations, our Backlight Handbook is a versatile resource to support clients in the period following completion of their matter.

The Backlight Handbook uses browser-readable technology, giving it the look, feel and functionality of a website with the security of being locally-saved and without the ongoing overhead that can be associated with a hosted solution.
