Weil advised Pacific Avenue Capital Partners, a leading global private equity firm focused on corporate carve-outs and other complex situations in the middle market, in the final closing of Pacific Avenue Fund II, with more than $1.65 billion in committed capital. This includes a €100+ million sidecar vehicle, that will be used alongside Fund II to pursue European opportunities. Fund II and the European sidecar were each raised in a single closing and completed in less than four months. The vehicles were significantly oversubscribed and received strong support from both new and existing investors.

The Weil team was led by Private Funds partners Jonathon Soler and Karen Chao and included associates Michael Sheffy, Amelia Krell, Charu Singh, Donita Macula Krasniqi, Emily Cohen, Cameron Dorais, Lauren Latino and Samuel Stenning; Head of Private Funds Tax Robert Frastai, counsel Lauren Gorsche and associates Kerri Gallagher and Scout Smith; U.S. Private Funds Regulatory partner Christopher Scully and associate Stephen Filocoma; and UK Private Funds Regulatory partner Marc Schubert, associate Bryony Pearson and trainee associate Joseph Nixon.
