  • Month-end close checklist

    Before the month ends, your controller holds the whole close on one page: every task with its owner, its date and what it waits on, the chain that sets the close date, and each gap already written as a question. Entries are prepared for approval, never posted.

  • Newsletter roundup draft

    The newsletter editor hands over the stories picked for this send and gets a draft digest grouped by beat, with a short summary, source line and link for each approved story. Duplicates, corrected stories and incomplete sources are flagged for the editor, who approves any send.

  • Open-source licence inventory for counsel

    Before a release ships or an acquirer asks, counsel and the engineering lead get every open-source package listed with its licence as found, the file and line where it was read, and the duties your own policy attaches to it. A missing, custom or conflicting licence is marked needs review, never cleared.

    Prepares work for a lawyer. Not legal advice.

  • Outgoing work sign-off log

    Every item that needs a responsible attorney's sign-off before it leaves the firm sits in one log, in the order it has to go out: waiting, approved or returned, with the attorney's own note. Anything close to its date with no decision is flagged first. The log tracks status and never touches the legal substance.

  • Overdue-invoice follow-up preparation

    Every overdue invoice gets a follow-up drafted in your firm’s tone for its age and addressed from the right person, and every invoice that should not be chased is held with the reason written down.

  • Prebill exception review

    Before the billing attorney opens a prebill, the billing coordinator has every awkward entry marked: rates that differ from the firm's rate table, possible duplicates, entries outside the client's billing guidelines, unclear narratives and expenses without support, each sent to the person who acts next.

  • Privilege log entry check

    Before a draft privilege log goes to review counsel, the paralegal gets an entry-by-entry check against counsel’s approved format and role map, and a list of logged documents’ attachments with no entry. It checks metadata only: review counsel makes every privilege call and writes or approves every description.

  • Reader correction request brief

    When a reader disputes a fact or reports a missing credit, the editor gets one internal note: the request, the published passage, the evidence supplied and the questions only an editor can answer. A draft acknowledgement waits for the audience lead's approval.

  • Receivables exception review

  • Referral source follow-up

    The day after a partner meets someone who sends the firm work, they have a follow-up draft and a list of every promise made at the table, by both sides. The draft uses only approved materials and nothing said in confidence; the partner checks it, chooses the next step and sends it.

  • Research plan for counsel

    Before an associate or paralegal starts on a partner's research question, they hold a one-to-two-page plan: the question split into sub-questions, the stated facts against each, the firm's own notes to read first, where to search and with what terms, and the gaps. Leads, not authorities: nothing is named from memory.

  • Service roster options

    For a department manager building a rota for expected occupancy, covers or events: two or three roster options side by side, with each role's need, the staff confirmed available, the periods left uncovered and the labor-cost assumptions you supplied. You verify and approve; nothing is published.

    When a sponsored run ends, the partnerships lead gets a register of each placement in the signed scope beside the publication record, metrics and invoices. Gaps, changed dates and incomparable metrics stay visible; billing questions go to finance.
