Private Equity & Venture Capital


Eterna Law offers sophisticated advice for the full life cycle of an investment or portfolio company. Our lawyers represent private equity and venture capital houses through their growth cycle, including fund formation; new money or private equity investments; financings; initial public offerings, as well as in mergers, acquisitions, strategic partnerships, or trade sale exits.

Our lawyers bring a strong ‘sector approach’ to deals, bringing to bear a legal team, which couples transactional experience, industry knowledge and regulatory capability. Our interdisciplinary approach provides significant differentiation to the advice we provide our clients with, both in connection with making investment decisions and developing post-investment growth strategies. We strive to build client relationships based on the simple principle that whatever the issue, we will deliver the answers you need, when you need them.

We regularly represent private equity firms, hedge funds, venture capital funds, financial institutions, banks, portfolio managers, and equity fund investors including major pension funds. Our clients also include businesses that attract private equity investment, operating in industry sectors such as telecommunications, biotechnology, life sciences, health care and consumer goods.
