| Organization and Nature of Business Abstract | |
| Organization and Nature of Business | Note 1—Organization and Nature of Business Perella Weinberg Partners and its consolidated subsidiaries, including PWP Holdings LP (“PWP OpCo”) (collectively, “PWP” and the “Company”), is a global independent advisory firm that provides strategic and financial advice to a wide range of clients. The Company’s activities constitute a single business segment that provides a range of advisory services, including advice related to strategic and financial decisions, mergers and acquisitions (“M&A”) execution, shareholder engagement advisory, financing and capital solutions advice with a focus on restructuring and liability management, capital markets advisory, private funds advisory, and private capital placement, as well as specialized underwriting and research services primarily for the energy and related industries. On June 24, 2021, the Company consummated a business combination that resulted in PWP OpCo becoming jointly-owned by Perella Weinberg Partners, PWP Professional Partners LP (“Professional Partners”) and certain existing partners of PWP OpCo as part of an umbrella limited partnership C-corporation (Up-C) structure (the “Business Combination”). As a result of a subsequent internal reorganization, the interests previously held by Professional Partners are now held by PWP VoteCo Professionals LP (“VoteCo Professionals”) and the former partners of Professional Partners directly. The operations of PWP OpCo are conducted through a wholly-owned subsidiary, Perella Weinberg Partners Group LP, and its subsidiaries which are consolidated in these financial statements. PWP GP LLC (“PWP GP”) is the general partner that controls PWP OpCo. The limited partner interests of PWP OpCo are held by the Company and certain current and former working partners. The Company shareholders are entitled to receive a portion of PWP OpCo’s economics through their direct ownership interests in shares of Class A common stock of PWP. The non-controlling interest owners of PWP OpCo receive economics through ownership of PWP OpCo Class A partnership units (“PWP OpCo Units”) and have voting rights through indirect ownership of Class B common stock via VoteCo Professionals. On April 13, 2026, the Company entered into an agreement to acquire Gleacher Shacklock LLP, an independent advisory firm headquartered in London. The transaction is expected to close in the third quarter of 2026, subject to customary closing conditions.
