We provide our clients with relevant industry knowledge and, in collaboration with leading practitioners from across the firm, advice on tax, employee benefits, antitrust, securities and real estate matters critical to their deals or portfolios.  Our financing and structuring experience on both sides of the deal and across a range of industries―biotechnology, clothing and apparel, consumer products, computer software and hardware, entertainment, financial services, health care, information technology, insurance, media, medical devices, pharmaceuticals and telecommunications―gives us a 360-degree perspective and enables us to shape transactions, develop intelligent solutions, collaborate with all parties and accelerate deal progress to meet our clients’ investment and financing objectives.

Our team works with both established and up-and-coming private equity firms throughout the life cycle of a fund, advising on fund structuring and formation, management, deployment of capital, compliance and exit strategy.  We also work with firm managers in the structuring of a variety of investment vehicles, including structuring and licensing of small business investment companies (SBICs) licensed and regulated by the U.S. Small Business Administration, and Business Development Companies (BDCs), which are regulated by the Securities and Exchange Commission.
