"The LOI is an excellent entry point. From a legal perspective, it's one of the largest moments where an attorney can add real value. If something gets codified in an LOI, it's often far more dangerous and binding than the buyer believes. People look at the title of an LOI on Google and assume non-binding means harmless. The first thing you learn in legal training is that the title of a document is not indicative of its substance. An LOI is not just an expression of interest. It is binding in many ways. Even if you set aside the legal repercussions of the document's nuances, look at how these get put together without outside help. The buyer attaches themselves to a price, a structure, a tactical concession that they can no longer change later in the process. Pre-LOI engagement is when an attorney earns their fee."
