What the film shows
Runs the conflict search for a new matter, triages every hit and drafts the clearance memo
Agents expand the named parties into parents, subsidiaries, former and transliterated names, search the firm's records with every variant, read the prior matter file behind each hit and classify it under Rules 1.7, 1.9 and 1.10. They draft the waiver requests and the clearance memo; the Director of Conflicts confirms the calls and signs.
