The issue

Leveraging over 15 years of specialized regulatory and transactional experience from within financial institutions, our legal advisory service provides more than just counsel; we offer a strategic partnership. We understand the pressures and complexities you face because we've navigated them firsthand, enabling us to deliver actionable, commercially-minded advice tailored to your specific business needs. Our guidance spans the entire lifecycle of your operations, starting from the critical early stages of fund formation through ongoing operational requirements and challenging dispute scenarios.

We provide comprehensive support in fund formation and structuring, expertly managing external counsel for the drafting and negotiation of all essential documents like Private Placement Memoranda (PPMs), Limited Partnership Agreements (LPAs), Investment Management Agreements (IMAs), Subscription Agreements, side letters, and seed capital arrangements, ensuring alignment with your strategic goals. Beyond formation, we manage the legal intricacies of your commercial relationships, assisting with the negotiation of key vendor agreements (administration, audit, prime brokerage, tech), structuring employment contracts with appropriate safeguards, and establishing robust confidentiality protocols (NDAs) to protect your firm's interests.

Should challenges arise, our expertise extends to proactive dispute avoidance strategies, meticulous management of litigation and regulatory investigations (working closely with your chosen external counsel to develop strategy and oversee process), and conducting sensitive internal investigations with discretion. We act as your strategic legal quarterback, ensuring that legal advice is not only technically sound but also commercially viable and aligned with your firm's unique position in the market. Trust us to deliver practical legal insights that mitigate risk and support sustainable growth.
