Investment and Hedge Funds
Our lawyers have extensive expertise in the area of investment fund formation and operations, including both foreign and domestic private equity funds, hedge funds, and public business development companies. Our fund lawyers work with sponsors and general partners in forming and organizing each of these types of funds, and advise institutional investors, high net worth individuals, university endowments, pension funds, and other investors with respect to initial and follow-on fund investments. Our tax, ERISA, and securities attorneys assist in these structuring and investing transactions to help our clients navigate the complex regulatory environment surrounding investment funds.
The breadth and depth of our lawyer's expertise allow Thompson & Knight to satisfy all of the legal needs of our fund clients from start to finish. In addition to the advice we provide our clients with respect to the formation of investment funds, we also assist them with all aspects of their post-formation activities, including structuring acquisitions and dispositions of portfolio company investments. We also provide our fund clients with continued advice regarding regulatory compliance and assist our clients with regulatory reviews and investigations.
