How AI is Rewiring the M&A Deal Process: A Bitesized Guide from Start to Finish

Introduction

Deals are getting faster and more data-heavy, and traditional workflows can’t keep up - enter AI: not as a gimmick but as a practical toolkit for shaping the M&A process.

This short webinar will look at how AI and software tools are influencing every stage of the deal lifecycle: from targeting and early risk assessment to diligence, negotiation, disclosure, closing and beyond. We’ll cut through the hype to explore real use cases, tools and the implications for lawyers and advisers.

This webinar is aimed at law firm managers and partners who are interested in understanding what type of products are available to deploy. It will focus on application rather than on the merits of particular platforms or products.

This webinar will cover the following:

• How AI is being used across the entire M&A process
• The technology clients are using before lawyers are even involved
• The use of AI tools to improve drafting, issue spotting and task tracking
• What happens when AI gets it wrong

This pre-recorded webinar will be available to view from Thursday 22nd January 2026
