McGladrey Expands in Alabama

Top 100 Firm McGladrey has reached an agreement to acquire substantially all the assets of Sellers Richardson Holman & West LLP, a Birmingham-based firm and member of the McGladrey Alliance. The deal is expected to close on May 1, 2015.

The new addition will provide McGladrey with a presence in Birmingham, where it will provide assurance, tax and consulting services focused on the middle market in Alabama.

“Joining forces with SRHW is an important step in McGladrey’s vision to be the first-choice advisor to middle market leaders,” said Joe Adams, managing partner and CEO of McGladrey. “Having such a strong practice in Birmingham will enable us to more broadly serve businesses in Alabama and surrounding states while creating opportunities for our clients and our people. We look forward to welcoming SRHW team members, who have an excellent reputation for understanding their clients’ needs and providing quality, responsive service.”

“Becoming part of McGladrey is a natural evolution of our ongoing relationship, given that we have been a proud member of the McGladrey Alliance for 12 years,” said Allen Dunn, managing partner of SRHW. “Culturally, our firms are very similar. We share a strong commitment to our people, quality and exceptional client service. We share a client-centric approach to doing business and we focus on building enduring, trusted relationships with our clients. Both firms also share a strong commitment to supporting the communities where we live and work.”

Sellers Richardson Holman & West serves clients in Alabama and the surrounding area. The firm is made up of 15 partners and 79 client service professionals, with support staff bringing the total to 107.
