Episode 10: Amir Reshef and Mike O'Connor of DealCloser

Founded in 2016, dealcloser was created and developed by two corporate lawyers who wanted to make the transaction process more efficient. They were frustrated that such a huge and integral process was undertaken manually amidst all of the other technology available. Almost every other aspect of modern business can now be managed by a mobile device but clients participating in legal transactions still had to print documents to sign them, or physically come to their law firm to sign each document. Lawyers still had to track almost all aspects of a deal manually. As a result, dealcloser’s co-founders started dealcloser with one thing in mind: to provide lawyers with a better way to do transactions that would benefit them and their clients. In Episode 53, we're joined by Amir Reshef, CEO of dealcloser. He tells us all about his experience as a corporate transactional attorney and the personal pain points he experienced. Those pain points led to the development of dealcloser.
