Hedge Funds & Other Types of Investment Funds
Our growing investment funds practice serves clients ranging from domestic and offshore private investment funds to investment advisers, funds of funds, and broker-dealers. We act as regular outside general counsel to funds and as special counsel to funds on corporate, regulatory, compliance, M&A, enforcement, litigation, and other matters. We recognize the need for prompt, efficient service – and we understand internal fund dynamics and operations.
We assist our fund clients on matters throughout every stage of their fund lifecycle, including:
- Private investments in private and public companies
- M&A
- Leveraged buyouts
- Cross-border transactions
- Consortia arrangements
- Joint ventures
- Carve-out transactions
- Financing
- Venture capital
We draw upon specialists in the firm’s other practice groups to assist our fund clients, including tax, ERISA, litigation, securities enforcement, and financial services specialists to help solve complex, and often international, issues surrounding investment fund work and to assist portfolio companies in addressing their underlying businesses. We have a network of lawyers both within and outside the firm whom we routinely engage for clients with international questions.
