Marguerite Donahue named 2024 Recipient of the Stephen H. Schulman Outstanding Business Lawyer Award

Marguerite Donahue, a corporate transactional attorney practicing law with Taft Detroit, has been named the recipient of the 18th Annual Stephen H. Schulman Outstanding Business Lawyer Award by the State Bar of Michigan’s Business Law Section.

This prestigious award honors Michigan business lawyers who consistently exemplify the characteristics the Business Law Section seeks to foster and facilitate: the highest quality of professionalism, the highest quality of practice, and an unwavering dedication to service, ethical conduct, and collegiality within the practice of law.

A Beverly Hills resident, Donahue’s practice includes mergers and acquisitions, corporate governance, private equity and more. During her career, Donahue has managed a variety of transactions, including asset sales, stock and membership interest sales, public and private securities offerings, exchange offers and reorganizations. At Taft, she is a member of the firm’s Venture Capital and Emerging Companies practice group. Before that she was a shareholder with Seyburn Kahn and an associate with Dykema. Through­out her distinguished career, Donahue has counseled a wide range of corporate clients from small businesses to mid-sized and large organizations in a variety of industries.

Donahue joins other experienced and accomplished business law attorneys who received the Schulman Award, including many leading business law attorneys in Michigan she has closely worked with. She was taught by Professor Schulman at Wayne State Law School and remembers him as knowledgeable and engaging.

“He was very immersed in corporate law and was great with students,” Donahue said. “He was really the godfather of business law in the state. Many firms hired him as a consultant. To be (the recipient) of an award in his name and with so many other influential business lawyers is truly an honor for which I am grateful.”
