Candidates should have working knowledge of Investment Advisers Act registration, private funds-related Securities Act issues, and compliance obligations.

The team handles sophisticated, multi-attorney matters; strong drafting, project management, and client-facing skills are essential. The group values a collaborative, proactive approach and high professional standards.

  • JD from an ABA‑accredited law school and active bar membership in good standing; timely admission where required.
  • Approximately 4–6 years of relevant fund formation and investment management experience.
  • Experience with fund and management company structuring, institutional investor negotiations, secondary LP transactions, and GP-led restructurings.
  • Knowledge of Investment Advisers Act registration, private funds-related Securities Act considerations, and compliance programs.
