How legal teams run document review in FileFeedback
From first draft to a recorded sign-off — every comment pinned to the right clause, every approval documented.
Upload the contract or compliance document
Upload the PDF draft and share a secure, optionally password-protected review link with outside counsel, internal legal, or the business stakeholder.
Reviewers comment at the exact clause
Reviewers click directly on the specific clause or line they're flagging. The comment is pinned to that location — not a general note that could apply anywhere in the document.
Track each redline as a new version
Upload each revised draft to the same thread. Counsel compares the current version against the prior one to confirm a requested clause change was incorporated.
Capture a recorded sign-off before execution
When the document is approved, FileFeedback records who approved it, which version, and exactly when — a retrievable record for audits or disputes.
Built for the precision legal review requires
Every feature addresses a specific need in contract and compliance document review.
Precise clause-level commenting
Reviewers pin comments to the exact clause, paragraph, or defined term — removing ambiguity when a contract has several similar sections to review.
Audit trail of who approved what and when
Every formal approval is recorded with the approver's name, the specific version reviewed, and the exact timestamp — a retrievable record, not institutional memory.
Password-protected confidential links
Restrict access to privileged or commercially sensitive drafts with a password on the review link, so only intended reviewers can open the document.
Multi-party contract review
Outside counsel, in-house legal, and business stakeholders comment on the same draft simultaneously, with all notes aggregated in one dashboard.
Redline version tracking
Each revised draft stacks in the same thread, so reviewers can compare the current version against the prior one to confirm a clause change was made.
Formal, documented sign-off before execution
Counsel and stakeholders give a recorded approval before a document moves to execution — useful documentation if approval is later disputed.
Works for marketing collateral requiring legal review
Brochures, ad copy, and disclosures that need legal sign-off go through the same clause-level comment workflow as contracts and compliance documents.
No account required for outside counsel
External counsel and consultants open the secure link directly in a browser — no software install, no account creation required to leave a comment.
Comment resolution tracking
Mark each clause-level note resolved as it's addressed, so the team can see at a glance which legal notes are still outstanding before final sign-off.
