Cole-Frieman & Mallon LLP (“CFM”) is a prestigious boutique law firm based in San Francisco with a robust national practice, representing private funds (including hedge, VC/PE, and hybrid structures) and their managers. Our firm advises on over 300 fund launches each year. Additionally, CFM has highly regarded practices focusing on cryptocurrency and digital asset transactional matters, as well as cybersecurity.
CFM is seeking Associates with experience advising private funds on formations, fundraising, and ongoing operations to join one of our offices in either the Bay Area or Denver. Familiarity with the Investment Advisers Act, the Investment Company Act, offshore funds, and parallel fund structures are a plus. There is a strong preference for candidates that have experience advising on tax issues related to funds and it is preferred that candidates have an LLM in tax. Many of our clients blend traditional investment strategies (venture, debt, and private equity) with non-traditional assets (in particular digital assets). Applicants should have an interest in analyzing and advising on novel legal issues without clearly established precedent.
Our Associates have significant flexibility in enjoying remote work and should be within driving distance of one of our offices. Our attorneys have a billable target of 1,500 hours per year.
Requirements:
We offer competitive salary, bonuses, 401(K), 401(K) match, profit sharing, paid time off, paid holidays, and a benefits package, including medical, vision, and dental plans.
Additionally, we offer paid CLE, paid maternity/paternity leave, and contribute up to 12 months of childcare upon returning from leave.
CFM is an equal opportunity employer, and we are dedicated to attracting, developing, and retaining a diverse community of professionals.
Yearly compensation range inclusive of bonuses: $145k – $300k (based on experience).
