‘This team serves not merely as legal advisors, but as trusted legal business partners, valued for their pragmatic mindset and focus on actionable solutions.’
'The team brings together wide-ranging knowledge and experience as well as commercial understanding that helps navigate the increasingly complex landscape of fund set up and fundraising. This is combined with highly reliable legal understanding and process, as well as a pragmatic approach.'
‘The Weil team are extremely knowledgeable on all aspects of private fund structuring. They provide very commercial advice and are responsive. In our experience, they are the best firm in the City that we deal with for private funds.’
'James Sargent is smart and practical, and I know we will be able to reliably resolve issues and questions with him. He also has a deep set of relationships across the globe, meaning he can be a point person and more of a general counsel on any fund and investment related aspects. One of the best partners I work with anywhere.'
‘James Sargent and Jacci Volpe are truly outstanding. Both are highly business-oriented, with a strong understanding of the market and a solid grasp of our needs as a client. They respond quickly, know when a swift answer is required, and consistently get straight to the point while also asking the right, value-adding questions. We can fully rely on them - not only are they excellent at what they do, but they are also a pleasure to work with: approachable, professional, and genuinely enjoyable collaborators.’
