The Last Mile of the Deal: Why Execution Decides Profitability

Every deal has a critical stretch between “terms agreed” and “documents signed” that quietly determines profitability. It's the phase where hours disappear into manual document updates, where a single missed change can delay a close, and where clients form lasting impressions about whether your firm can keep pace.

Most Legal AI tools were never designed for this. They were built for the front of the deal. The last mile stayed manual.

In this 30-minute recorded session, Litera and Addleshaw Goddard explore why execution has become the differentiator that separates firms clients return to from firms clients replace.

You'll learn:

• Why efficiency gains earlier in the deal evaporate without connected execution workflows
  
  
• How leading firms are saving 85–97% of time on document execution tasks
  
  
• Where agentic AI belongs alongside deterministic accuracy on high-stakes closings
  
  
• What it looks like when the full deal journey runs on a single platform built on 30 years of legal expertise

Whether you're a transactional lawyer managing document suites under deadline pressure, a practice leader seeking governed AI adoption, or a managing partner connecting execution speed to revenue growth, this session was built for you.
