Asset Management M&A Associate | Chicago<\/span><\/span><\/b>
<\/span><\/span><\/p>
Our AmLaw 100 client is adding a 5th through 8th year associate to its Asset Management Transactions group in Chicago.<\/span>
<\/span><\/span><\/p>
This is not a local -only corporate seat. The work sits on a national and global platform and focuses on asset manager transactions, GP stakes, control deals, fund -related M&A, and liquidity solutions.<\/span>
<\/span><\/span><\/p>
Role Summary<\/span><\/span><\/b>
<\/span><\/span><\/p>
You will advise asset managers, private equity firms, GP stakes investors, banks, insurance companies, financial institutions, founders, management teams, and boards on complex corporate transactions.<\/span>
<\/span><\/span><\/p>
The practice covers full buyouts, minority GP stakes, joint ventures, management team spin -outs, lift -outs, carve -outs, restructurings, succession planning, continuation funds, preferred equity solutions, structured and synthetic secondaries, LP portfolio sales, NAV financings, strip sales, tender offers, and related regulatory matters.<\/span>
<\/span><\/span><\/p>
Candidate Profile<\/span><\/span><\/b>
<\/span><\/span><\/p>
Candidates should have 4+ years of asset management M&A experience, with a strong preference for lawyers who have handled GP stakes and control asset management transactions.<\/span>
<\/span><\/span><\/p>
You should be ready to take ownership of meaningful deal work, manage specialist input, draft and negotiate transaction documents, and work directly with sophisticated clients in a niche that is only getting more active.<\/span>
<\/span><\/span><\/p>
Why This Role<\/span><\/span><\/b>
<\/span><\/span><\/p>
Chicago offers a strong corporate base with access to high -end M&A, finance, funds, tax, and regulatory resources across offices. For an associate who wants specialized asset management deal work without relocating to New York, this is worth a private look.<\/span>
<\/span><\/span><\/p>
The practice has the depth, deal flow, and institutional support to let a senior associate build a real lane.<\/span>
<\/span><\/span><\/p>
