Private Equity: Limited Partners
For more than two decades, our fund lawyers have actively represented institutional investors and their advisors—including public and private pension funds, sovereign wealth funds, endowments, funds of funds, foundations, and large family offices—on a broad range of matters relating to their investments as limited partners in private funds and a variety of bespoke investment vehicles.
On behalf of these investor clients, we have reviewed and negotiated the terms of thousands of limited partner investments in all types of private funds. This breadth and depth of perspective means that we have seen the entire spectrum of fund structures and related terms, enabling us to combine savvy advice on regulatory, tax and other legal matters while also providing practical insights on cutting-edge market terms and trends.
