Supporting a Potential Sale of the Company

Situation

The law department for a mining company did not have the legal resources necessary to support the potential sale of the company. To control costs, the company wanted to coordinate and control the due diligence and data room process, as well as the production and drafting of disclosure schedules for the purchase and sale agreement internally, rather than relying completely on outside counsel.
