- Fund Organization
Our lawyers assist clients in the organization, operation, and maintenance of private investment funds of every type, including buyout, mezzanine, distressed, and venture capital funds. We have significant experience in the design and implementation of management fee and executive compensation arrangements for the principals of private investment funds. Services include partnership structuring, preparation of offering documents, identification of tax, securities, and investment company concerns, and resolution of compensation, equity, employment, and governance issues.
- Leveraged Buyouts
Leveraged transactions form the core of our private equity practice. While we frequently represent the private equity acquirer, we also have significant experience in representing management teams, mezzanine investors, and financial advisers in leveraged acquisitions.
- Mezzanine Funds
We actively represent mezzanine fund investors in all aspects of initial capitalization and recapitalization. We have a depth of experience advising mezzanine investors regarding subordination and other arrangements with senior lenders and, as a result, are able to counsel clients on current market practices in this area.
- International
We also represent international and regional private equity/venture capital funds, investors, and portfolio companies in significant transactions in the Americas, the European Community, and the Pacific Basin.
