At Goodwin, we recognize the unique challenge and vast upside potential of search funds. Since the original search fund was formed, entrepreneurs have regularly relied on our experienced team of lawyers dedicated to those active in the search fund space. We have helped over 100 entrepreneurs form search funds and close on fundraising rounds, and we have advised on nearly $300 million worth of acquisitions and exits. Our market-leading Search Funds practice brings a practical, team-based approach to search fund M&A.
Here’s what truly sets us apart:
- Goodwin was the original search fund law firm. We have the history and the market knowledge that gives clients the edge when negotiating deals.
- We have great relationships with the investor base, but do not represent them.
- We have experience dealing with inexperience. The sellers and their counsel won’t feel like they are being lawyered to death. Our goal is to get our client’s deal closed.
- Goodwin has experienced top-notch domestic and international M&A lawyers dedicated to the global search fund market.
