Career

Nathaniel Marrs is a partner in Willkie’s Chicago office, where he is a member of the Asset Management Department and Private Funds practice. His practice is focused on the structuring and formation of private funds and their management companies, particularly in the real estate, infrastructure and energy sectors.

Nathaniel has formed many hundreds of private funds, including closed-end funds, open-end funds, hybrid funds, co-investment funds, funds of one, and semi-discretionary funds, representing sponsors of all types based in the United States and throughout the world, including Canada, the UK, Ireland, Japan, Singapore, China and India.
