Cole-Frieman & Mallon LLP (“CFM”) is a prestigious boutique law firm based in San Francisco with a robust national practice, representing private funds (including hedge, VC/PE, and hybrid structures) and their managers. Our firm advises on over 300 fund launches each year. Additionally, CFM has highly regarded practices focusing on cryptocurrency and digital asset transactional matters, as well as cybersecurity.
