Kyle Krpata > Weil, Gotshal & Manges LLP > Redwood Shores, United States > Lawyer Profile

Weil counts a varied range of large-cap private equity sponsors, emerging investors, as well as pension and sovereign funds in its client roster and regularly acts as lead counsel on transactions ranging from high-value leveraged buyouts and take-private acquisitions to minority investments and growth capital series financings. In New York, Christopher Machera maintains close relationships with leading investors such as Blackstone and Goldman Sachs, while Doug Warner handles high-value leveraged buyouts and minority investments especially for funds active in the infrastructure and tech sectors. Machera and Warner co-lead the team with Kyle Krpata, a strategic and private equity M&A expert based in Silicon Valley, and Ramona Nee, who advises on leveraged buyouts and growth investments from the Boston office. Fund mergers are a particular area of focus for New York-based lawyers Brian Parness and Harvey Eisenberg, who recently led on TPG’s $3.4bn acquisition of Angelo Gordon. Silicon Valley lawyer Jenna McBain is a key contact for funds seeking to invest in infrastructure and real assets.
