DLA Piper is pleased to welcome Alec Campbell as a Partner in the Investment Funds practice. He will be based in the New York office.

Campbell represents both domestic and international investment fund managers in connection with the formation of funds that invest in the US and/or overseas, including buyout funds, funds-of-funds, venture capital funds, credit funds, and other investment partnerships. He also regularly advises investment fund managers and institutional investors on the formation of continuation funds, the purchase and sale of interests in investment funds, the tax aspects of other secondaries transactions, and liquidity solutions for private fund sponsors.

“Alec is an incredibly talented attorney, and his experience in advising management companies on carried interest planning and recapitalization will be a key addition to our fund sponsor clients,” said John Cusack, Global Co-Chair of DLA Piper’s Investment Funds practice.

“We are delighted to welcome Alec to the firm. His deep technical experience, strong market insight, and exceptional versatility will further elevate our ability to serve clients and significantly expand our tax-focused capabilities within the investment funds space,” said Nicole Brennig, US Co-Chair of the firm’s Investment Funds practice.

Campbell’s arrival to the firm comes on the heels of recent Investment Funds Partner Emma Whenham, showcasing the firm’s commitment to the growth of the practice.

The firm’s global investment funds team provides a dynamic, integrated service to sponsors, fund managers, and institutional investors, supported by the firm’s international tax and regulatory networks. The team advises clients on the full spectrum of private investment funds, all major investment strategies, and all stages of a private investment fund's life cycle.
