Server 2012 Migration

Can someone give me some 1, 2, 3 steps that can assist me in finishing a server upgrade?
We had to let our IT consultant go and he was partially done with the upgrade from Server 2008 to Server 2012.     Here is what I know he finished:    This is a virtual server and 2 terminal (virtual servers)
Server and roles are established.
Active Directory is complete
GPO is complete
Virtual servers are set up and working fine---applications, RDP, etc.

I think I am just down to copying the data files????       Or can you think of steps I need to complete or check if they were done?

Also, after I copy the data files, what or how do I make sure all users are now accessing the new data server and not the old one?

IE:  our directory is \\bones\apps and will now be \\xena\apps

Please make as simple as possible....   THANK YOU
