Private Funds Associate Attorney / 2-6 yrs. / Miami or Chicago
A top ranked global law firm is seeking seeking a Private Funds Associate Attorney with 2-6 years of experience to join their fund formation and investment management team in either Miami or Chicago. The ideal candidate will have experience in a large law firm setting and should have some experience with fund formation and investment adviser work and a genuine interest in practicing as a private funds lawyer. In addition, candidates should be willing and able to take on responsibility, multi-task, and work in a fast-paced environment. Candidates should have a strong academic history and excellent written and verbal communication skills; they should also be highly detail-oriented. A basic understanding of entity types from a tax perspective is helpful, as is an understanding of the fundamental elements of the Federal securities laws (i.e., the ’33 Act, the ’34 Act, the Investment Company Act, and the Investment Advisers Act) as they relate to the business of private fund managers. Depending on the level of experience, candidates will be expected to understand the basics of fund economics and be able to coherently draft related language in fund agreements (or be motivated to learn to do so). Candidates must either be admitted to practice in the jurisdiction in which they are applying or eligible for admission.
