The three recent mergers and acquisitions added over $7 million in billings and more than 30 new employees to Schulman Lobel, including five new partners. The firm’s total revenue will be $20 million, and it will have 15 partners and 74 staff members, up from $12.7 million before the deals.
The acquisition of DFP Partners’ tax compliance division added more than 100 high-end tax clients to Schulman Lobel’s roster. The deal, which took effect in January, was facilitated by Robert Fligel of RF Resources LLC.
“We are excited to add the expertise and experience of the DFP team to our firm,” said Schulman Lobel managing partner Norm Schulman in a statement. “This acquisition allows us to strengthen and expand our tax advisory and compliance services and offer our clients an even deeper bench.”
Tanton Grubman CPAs LLP specializes in high net worth clients, cross-border taxation, entertainment and lifestyle brands, startup businesses and entrepreneurs, business structuring considerations and financial services. “This merger was a natural, as we are similar in many ways but fill in the other’s needs,” said Tanton Grubman managing partner Robert Grubman in a statement.
The merger adds a music and fashion practice to Schulman Lobel’s existing roster of entertainment clients. “The teams joined together seamlessly, having sparked synergies early on,” said Tanton Grubman partner Deborah Chichester in a statement. “We had begun to collaborate and share ideas long before we officially merged, and we are now working together as one solid firm.”
Chichester, Grubman and David Barrett are joining Schulman Lobel as new partners from Tanton Grubman.
