Sadis & Goldberg LLP has been named as the best North American Law Firm at the Hedgeweek USA Awards 2018.
The Annual Awards recognise excellence among hedge fund managers and service providers in the United States, and are based on a ‘peer review system’ whereby the Hedgeweek readers, including institutional and high net worth investors as well as managers and other industry professionals at fund administrators, prime brokers, custodian and advisers are invited to elect a ‘best in class’ in a series of categories.
Sadis & Goldberg has been involved with the creation of various investment products as well as with many of the distribution models including seed transactions, acceleration capital, creation of hedge fund platforms, joint ventures, and the retention of third party marketers. Working with over 1,000 funds, the firm is actively involved in the most current legal trends in the industry.
Its partners routinely handle a diverse range of enquiries, providing legal counsel to domestic and international financial institutions, family offices, hedge funds, private equity funds, venture capital funds, real estate funds and commodity pools.
In addition to the Financial Services Group, Sadis & Goldberg provides a full range of sophisticated legal services, including corporate transactions (acquisitions and divestitures), regulatory and compliance, tax, commercial and employment litigation and arbitration, corporate governance and shareholder activism, fiduciary duty law to derivative transactions, M&A litigation and appraisal rights, as well as investor due diligence.
“We have been fortunate to represent managers located throughout the United States, as well as across Europe, the Middle East, Asia and South America,” says Ron Geffner (pictured), Partner at Sadis & Goldberg. “While our clients employ a broad range of investment strategies, over the last several years we have seen a material growth in sponsors launching private equity funds, venture capital funds, utilising strategies such as healthcare, technology, media and telecommunications, real estate, cannabis, opportunity zone funds and crypto-currency, as well as alternative financing strategies such as hard money lending, asset-backed lending and litigation finance. In addition, we’ve seen a continued demand for equity and quantitative-related strategies; global macro, equity long/short and distressed debt.”
“Our firm is honoured to receive the recognition of our esteemed peers and is thankful to our clients for their continued support.”
