Entity Structure for investment firm structured like a Law Firm with partners.

[Matt Skinner]

I want to set up my investment firm like a law firm; offering some of our biggest stars partnership positions in the firm and giving the rising stars the aspiration to become partners in the firm.

My firm's primary business activity is:

• Raising private equity
• Acquiring real assets.

What entity structure would be best suited for this model?

Professional corporation?

Limited Partnership?

Perhaps another entity that I have not considered?

Any comments or questions are welcomed.
