“We were looking for a partner who shared our values and supported our strategy for the future of the firm,” Meaden & Moore CEO Jim Rollins said in a statement Tuesday. “Unity Partners demonstrated that commitment from day one, approaching the relationship as a true partner focused on supporting our people, preserving what makes Meaden & Moore unique, and helping us build for the future.”

We look forward to supporting the leadership team as they continue executing their vision for the future.”
