As part of our transactional focus, we are building a solution that accounts for the overlap between transactional practice areas, as well as specific focus on individual practice areas. These Practice Centers map to the workflow of the individual practice areas.
The Transactional Advisor launch page provides links out to specific
Practice
Centers , as well as quick finds that allow customers to quickly access our robust forms collection, as well as our multi-jurisdictional surveys with analysis. In addition, the front page highlights key Emerging Issues Commentaries that have relevance across multiple transactional practice areas.
Transactional Advisor provides a cohesive view of related practice areas that align to the overlapping tasks of a typical transactional attorney. From Transactional Advisor, customers can link to Practice Centers for Insurance; Commercial Law; Corporate, Business, & Compliance; and Real Estate as well as M&A, Securities, Tax (
Tax
Center ), and IP (TotalPatent). Launching in April will be additional Practice Centers under Transactional Advisor including Environmental, Bankruptcy, and International Disputes & Transactions.

Anticipate the impact of industry trends to provide long-term strategic counsel.
Analyze a broad range of legal issues within each key stage of a client matter.
