Investment Funds.
One team, one retainer, every day-to-day legal need of your fund handled.
We act as embedded outside counsel for venture capital funds, corporate venture capital vehicles, angel syndicates, private equity funds and family offices. The retainer covers portfolio monitoring, governance, follow-on coordination, and ongoing legal hygiene across the fund's lifecycle — live investments and exits are scoped and priced per transaction.
Your outside GC — without the headcount.
Funds that deploy across CEE need counsel who already knows the portfolio, the docs, and the jurisdictions. Not a fresh engagement every quarter.
Investment-policy alignment
We read your limited partnership agreement before we read your term sheet.
DD that finds the real issues
Red flags land on the first page, not buried in the appendix.
Follow-on & pro-rata discipline
We monitor every portfolio round for trigger events — so fund rights are exercised on time, not discovered after the deadline.
Exit-side muscle
From the first investment round through secondary sales to final exit, fund economics get protected all the way to the wire.
Five workstreams. Full lifecycle coverage.
Investment due diligence
Full-stack due diligence covering corporate, intellectual property, employment, data protection, and regulatory. Red-flag report with go/no-go recommendations.
Term sheet & definitive documents
We negotiate from your house term sheet. Definitive documents drafted to close fast without giving up ground.
Portfolio monitoring
Quarterly portfolio reviews, covenant tracking, observer-meeting attendance, and board-pack review.
Follow-on & pro-rata execution
Pro-rata participation, super-pro-rata negotiations, bridge financings, and recap participation.
Portfolio exits
From trade-sale execution to secondary liquidity, we run fund exits with an eye on waterfall mechanics and limited partner distribution timelines.

Fund-side resources.
Research and tools we share with our retainer clients — starting with the only CEE deal data sourced from real deal flow.
CEE VC Deals Report 2025
Sourced from our own deal flow — median round sizes, valuations, and term structures across every institutional round we closed in CEE last year. Data you won't find in any public benchmark.
Pro-rata & follow-on playbook
When to exercise, when to waive, and how to negotiate super-pro-rata without signalling weakness.
