Kleinberg, Kaplan, Wolff and Cohen, a small New York City law firm known for its intensive focus on hedge funds, has hired former Schulte Roth & Zabel lawyer Christian Gloger as a partner.

Gloger advises fund sponsors on the structuring, formation and operation of hedge funds and on regulatory issues arising from the Investment Company Act, the Investment Advisers Act and Dodd-Frank regulations.

“We are thrilled to welcome Christian Gloger to Kleinberg Kaplan,” Eric Wagner, chair of the firm's corporate department, said in a statement. “He has significant knowledge on the multitude of issues that investment funds and their managers face, and his experience on matters both in the U.S. as well as overseas provide a strategic fit with our practice.”
