Citation and quotation check
Before a draft is filed or relied on, the associate or paralegal has one worksheet: every citation, quotation and record cite counted, then set against the sources supplied, and every good-law check left for the lawyer. No result calls anything confirmed; each says only what was compared.

Contract amendment trace
Before a question about a signed contract goes to counsel, the contracts manager has one dated history of the provision that matters: every signed document in order, each version quoted with its document and section, every gap marked, and a list for the lawyer to confirm.

Contract intake brief
When another party's agreement arrives, counsel gets a one-page intake brief: what it is, read from its titles, the parties as named, what is missing, the requester's purpose and date, and the reviewer your own routing rules name. It comments on no term; counsel decides.

Contract issues table for counsel

Contract renewal and notice register
From your signed agreements and amendments, the contracts manager gets a register for counsel to confirm: each term, renewal and notice clause quoted with its section, cancel-by and send-by dates proposed only under counsel's own counting rules, and the windows sorted by proposed send-by date.

Inbound demand or claim intake record
When a demand, claim or subpoena arrives, the company's lawyer gets one intake record the same day: who sent it, what it asks, every date it states, the facts and citations it relies on, related matters, where the records are, and a question on keeping them. It rates nothing and recommends nothing.

Invention disclosure brief for patent counsel

Launch checklist
Whoever owns a launch date gets one dated checklist for the weeks before, the day itself and the weeks after, with an owner on every line. Each announcement is written out so the approver sees exactly what goes out, to whom and from where before saying go. Nothing is announced by the assistant.

Legal hold custodian tracker
Once counsel has issued a legal hold, your legal operations lead keeps one tracker for counsel: every custodian and system in counsel’s scope, who has acknowledged and who is overdue, who has left or changed role, the refresh date counsel set, and reminders copied from counsel’s own text for a person to send.

Meeting agenda, notes and follow-ups
Whoever runs the meeting walks in with an agenda where every topic has an outcome and a time, and walks out with a one-page record: what was decided, who owns each action and by when, and what is still open. Nothing reaches anyone until that person has read it and sends it.

NDA check against counsel's approved positions
Before anyone signs a proposed NDA, counsel gets every clause quoted with its section and set beside the positions counsel has approved: matching, departing or not covered. Any obligation beyond confidentiality sends the whole NDA to counsel. The check never says an NDA is ready to sign.

Project lessons review
When a phase or a project ends, the project manager gets one blameless review: whether it achieved what it was for, how scope, schedule and budget moved and why, whether the success measures were the right ones, and practice changes for the team to choose, each with an owner and a follow-up date.

Project scope baseline
A project manager turns an approved brief into a draft scope baseline: the deliverables, what is excluded, the acceptance criteria for each deliverable, the constraints and the open questions for the sponsor. Nothing implied counts as scope until the sponsor says so.
