The team at Willkie Farr & Gallagher LLP has ‘unique industry experience and a breadth of client and transaction types‘, and makes for a ‘proactive and responsive‘ choice of counsel for a host of highly regarded asset managers and funds. Open-end and closed-end funds, ETFs and BDCs are among the names that look to the firm’s asset management department that is co-led by Lior Ohayon and Margery Neale, both of whom are based in New York. Neesa Sood was promoted to the partnership in January 2022- she and Neale are both praised by one client for the respective ‘depth and breadth of their ’40 Act knowledge, combined with excellent business judgment‘. Barry Barbash in Washington DC is a key senior figure, and at the same location, Benjamin Haskin is a contact to note for investment management, while Anne Choe covers a wide range of securities regulation, with a focus on representing ETFs, their advisers, and independent board members. In New York, Elliot Gluck has acted for registered investment companies, their advisers and boards in an array of corporate and regulatory matters, and Jay Spinola is another counsel with expertise in the 1940 Act.
