    How Emma Legal Turns Data Rooms Into Insights

    In this episode of Legal Tech StartUp Focus, Rick van Esch, CEO of Emma Legal, discusses how modern due diligence technology addresses the fundamental challenge that deals don't fail because of effort, but because critical risks remain invisible to decision-makers when it matters most. Through AI-driven playbooks that structure document uploads against diligence request lists, automated red flag detection for material clauses, and permissioned collaboration platforms, Emma Legal transforms due diligence from a document review exercise into a strategic process that surfaces gaps early, enables informed decision-making, and creates lasting value through post-close integration and vendor due diligence preparation.

    Europe vs US deal habits that reshapes your M&A playbook

    EU and US deals run on different defaults: the US favors completion accounts, disclosure letters, and full bring-downs at closing; Europe leans lockbox pricing, data-room disclosure, and damages-only repetition. Liability caps are typically lower in the US, while W&I insurance has replaced many escrows in Europe and is moving down-market. To win cross-border, decide your price mechanism early, align interim risk, and engineer disclosures upfront. Guest: Michaël Heene, Partner M&A @DLA Piper
