Resourcefulness

We assist with every aspect of fund formation, including drafting key documents, finding optimal tax structures, and developing investor leads. Our attorneys also help clients identify and utilize appropriate financing, including private placement of debt and equity securities, at all stages of entity growth from startup to later stage. Once potential investors are identified, we provide counsel in how to anticipate, assemble, and present relevant information used to evaluate a client company’s funding needs. Our team also assists with registration and management of mutual funds, private investment companies, and other private equity investment vehicles.
