Investment Funds Partner Attorney Location:

Chicago, Illinois A sophisticated and entrepreneurial law firm is seeking an experienced Investment Funds Partner to join its growing Funds practice. This opportunity is designed for a highly accomplished attorney who enjoys working closely with fund sponsors at every stage of their evolution-from emerging managers launching first-time vehicles to established sponsors seeking strategic long-term counsel. The ideal candidate will bring deep experience in fund formation and fundraising, a strong commercial mindset, and the ability to independently manage sophisticated client matters while collaborating within a collegial and highly regarded team environment. This role offers a unique platform for an attorney looking to expand their practice, strengthen client relationships, and play a meaningful role in the continued growth of a dynamic funds group. Key Responsibilities Lead all aspects of private fund formation and fundraising transactions. Structure, draft, and negotiate fund documentation, including limited partnership agreements, subscription agreements, side letters, and related ancillary documents. Serve as trusted advisor and primary relationship partner for fund sponsor clients throughout the lifecycle of their funds. Counsel clients on regulatory and compliance matters involving securities laws, the Investment Advisers Act, Investment Company Act, ERISA, and related regulations. Coordinate with tax advisors, accountants, placement agents, and other professionals to deliver integrated solutions for clients. Collaborate closely with other partners and attorneys across the practice to ensure seamless client service and strategic growth. Mentor and develop associates and legal staff within the group. Participate actively in business development, industry networking, and client expansion initiatives. Qualifications JD required. Significant experience practicing investment funds law within a law firm environment. Demonstrated experience leading sophisticated fund formation and fundraising matters independently. Strong understanding of private investment fund structures and applicable regulatory frameworks. Excellent drafting, negotiation, and client management skills. Entrepreneurial mindset with a collaborative and team-oriented approach to practice development. Proven ability to build and maintain strong client relationships. Why This Opportunity Stands Out This firm offers attorneys the opportunity to work in a highly collaborative environment that values initiative, sophistication, and long-term professional growth. Attorneys are empowered to take ownership of their practice while benefiting from strong internal support, cross-functional collaboration, and meaningful client engagement.

Highlights include:

Sophisticated and high-profile investment funds work. Direct client contact and leadership opportunities. Collegial and entrepreneurial culture. Strong platform for business development and practice growth. Opportunities to mentor and shape the next generation of attorneys. Competitive compensation and partnership support structure.
