Firm named finalist for the 14th annual M&A Advisors Awards
Honigman Miller Schwartz and Cohn LLP has been recognized as a finalist for the Law Firm of the Year and as an advisor for a Real Estate Deal of the Year finalist by M&A Advisors. New York-based M&A Advisors is an organization that offers insights and intelligence on M&A activities and recognition to leaders in the industry.
“Honigman has an outstanding reputation in M&A legal work across the country,” said Donald J. Kunz, chair of the firm’s Corporate Department. “We provide high-end legal services to the often underserved middle market and lower middle market. In 2014, our M&A team closed 103 deals at a value of $8.4 billion, almost double the transaction value of the year before, with 2015 looking just as promising.”
In addition to the Law Firm of the Year category, Honigman is also named as an advisor for Treetops (a Michigan spa and resort), which is a finalist for the Real Estate Deal of the Year. The firm represented the Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors of Treetops Acquisition Company, LLC in connection with its Chapter 11 bankruptcy case. The result of the case was a settlement among the Creditors’ Committee, the debtor and the senior lender resulting in a confirmed consensual Chapter 11 Plan of Reorganization that provided for the financial restructuring of the golf and ski resort.
Community policing to be subject of lecture series October 26
“Community Policing: Building Trust, Reducing Violence” will be the topic addressed by experts during the Arthur L. Johnson Urban Perspectives Lecture Series at Wayne State University, Spencer M. Partrich Auditorium from 12-1 p.m. Oct. 26.
Increasing tension in the interactions between U.S. police departments and their communities are indicators that the relationships between police and those they serve – particularly those in minority communities – are in serious disrepair.
Featured speakers include:
Carl S. Taylor, Ph.D., professor in the Department of Sociology, senior fellow in university outreach and engagement, and extension specialist at Michigan State University, has extensive experience in field research aimed at the reduction of violence involving American youth.
Through his work with the American Civil Liberties Union of Michigan, Mark Fancher has addressed racial discrimination against public school students of color, racial profiling, attacks on the democratic rights of communities of color and abusive police practices. He has lectured across the country and written extensively on issues such as the U.S. military presence in Africa, political repression in the United States, and the land and resource rights of traditional indigenous communities.
