Michael J. Voynich

Drawing on over 24 years of corporate practice, he brings a practical, business-oriented approach to complex transactions and helps clients navigate each stage of the deal lifecycle — from structuring and negotiation through closing and post-closing matters.

Mike has extensive experience representing sponsors, general partners, and investment managers in the formation, structuring, and operation of private investment funds, including private equity, venture, real estate and private credit funds. He advises fund managers on a host of legal and business matters associated with launching and operating investment vehicles, including structuring considerations, drafting fund offering documents, and negotiating terms with investors and service providers.

In addition to his fund formation practice, Mike regularly represents buyers, sellers, and investors in leveraged buyouts, mergers and acquisitions, and growth equity transactions. He advises emerging and growth-stage companies on capital-raising activities, including venture capital financings, convertible note and SAFE offerings, seed and series-stage equity rounds, and private placements of securities at all levels of the capital structure. Mike also serves as outside general counsel to portfolio companies and privately held businesses, providing day-to-day guidance on corporate governance, commercial contracts, equity compensation, and other operational matters.
