On November 16, the Tucker Ellis team of Dan Schiau, Ashley Gault, and Peter Igel received The M&A Advisor’s Deal of the Year award in the Consumer Discretionary category.

“The award recipients represent the best in the mergers and acquisitions industry this past year and earned these honors by standing out in a group of extremely impressive finalists,” said Roger Aguinaldo, Founder and CEO of The M&A Advisor, in a press release.

In the recognized deal, Tucker Ellis represented Kid Works Creative Learning Centers in its acquisition by Busy Bees and Ontario Teachers Pension Plan. Dan, Ashley, and Peter successfully navigated a complicated deal to secure a highly favorable result for our clients, Dennis and Katja Creech.

“Katja and I couldn’t be happier with the service and advice we received from everyone at Tucker Ellis,” Dennis Creech commented. “Their breadth of knowledge and expertise were crucial in our highly complex transaction.”
