RealDealDocs provides lawyers with extraordinary access to hundreds of thousands of corporate/transactional documents and millions of deal clauses, created by attorneys from leading U.S. firms. The source is SEC filings for companies ranging from Fortune 500 to the smallest of small caps; the difference from other SEC providers is that RealDealDocs strips away superfluous information so you get just the exhibits and clauses you need, organized the way you want to find them.
What Makes RealDealDocs Unique?
RealDealDocs lets you dictate exactly the kind of document you’re seeking. Say you were looking for a few good examples of a patent license agreement. Using simple pull-down menus, select "Intellectual property" as the document type and "patent license agreement" as the subtype. You can modify that further with full text search or by choosing additional search fields; in seconds, RealDealDocs returns dozens of examples, prepared by top law firms for leading public companies. Actual document titles, parties involved, law firms and governing law are all listed, so you can quickly judge if the document is useful. Another click, and the document opens on screen. You don't receive scores of irrelevant hits that match surface criteria, hits that must then be opened, evaluated and dismissed. With RealDealDocs, you get the section of a filing – the work product – which you really need.
What’s in the RealDealDocs Repository?
To create RealDealDocs, Practice Technologies has obtained hundreds of thousands of US public company filings from the SEC EDGAR database which are most likely to contain relevant documents for use by transactional attorneys. These include annual and quarterly (10K/10KSB, and 10Q) filings, registration statements, and special events filings. Setting aside insider trading and institutional ownership reporting forms, these filings constitute the significant majority of all filings with the SEC. The exhibits from these filings have then been individually categorized and made searchable using propietary RealPractice™ technologies. The most relevant exhibits include Exh 1 (Underwriting Agreements), Exh 2 (M&A / reorg), Exh 3 (Organizational docs), Exh 4 (Major lending docs), Exh 10 (Material Contracts), and Exh 99 (Miscellaneous filings – mostly press releases which have not been included due to lack of relevance).
