"Non-binding is just a phrase. It does not guarantee a frictionless process down the line. An LOI can absolutely structure the entire future of a deal even when the document explicitly says non-binding. If counsel comes in later in the game, the LOI is already there, and parties will anchor to it. Whether or not you were involved in the drafting. Whether or not you were involved in the negotiation. They will anchor to that document. And when deals blow up, fingers get pointed at the LOI's terms. The phrase non-binding sets a buyer's expectations. The substance of the document sets the deal. Those two things are different, and the gap between them is where deals get expensive."

When the other side returns a redlined definitive, you don't need to be an attorney to scan the document and see whether it's signal or noise. If the entire document is now red, you can see it visually. The quick scan is whether these are actually important points or whether this is grammatical nitpicking for the sake of grammatical nitpicking. The latter is a pretty big red flag pretty quickly. In a good transaction, the redlining focuses on risk allocation, earnouts, exclusivity. The structural points that matter to the client on either side. That's fair. That's fine. When you see the same point reraised three rounds later, you have to ask whether that's a memory problem or just another way to keep the meter running. Sometimes I wonder if the firms are working together to make sure it goes back and forth. I'm not part of that.
