We work with private equity and family office clients at every stage of a fund: launching it, buying companies with it, running them and selling them.
A typical fund has a sponsor, a general partner, a management company, the fund itself, its limited partners and the companies it buys. We work at each point.

Solid: ownership / control. Dashed: contract.
We help U.S. and global sponsors launch funds that can operate efficiently and flexibly. That means getting the structure, the economics and the tax position right before the first close.
After launch we stay on. The work that follows is often where a fund needs counsel most:
We run diligence on every prospective deal, including its tax and regulatory implications. What we find shapes the structure.
From there we structure, negotiate and draft the acquisition and financing documents. Platform deals and add-ons get the same care.
We handle sales at the portfolio level or the fund level. Each exit is structured for the best upside with the least exposure, which starts with decisions made at formation and acquisition.
You work directly with them. We don't push client work down to junior staff.
