An article in the current edition of Michigan Lawyers Weekly highlights Linda Paullin-Hebden’s “national powerhouse” legal practice and discusses what she sees on the mergers and acquisitions horizon.

<a href="https://www.wnj.com/people/linda-paullin-hebden/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Paullin-Hebden</a>, who co-chairs the Mergers and Acquisitions Practice Group at Warner, was named as the ACG® Detroit All-Star Advisor of the Year for her transactional work in the registered investment advisor, broker-dealer and automotive supply industries. Her “outstanding” achievements in 2023 included leading 14 M&amp;A transactions, nine of which closed during the year, two of which closed during the first quarter of 2024 and three of which successfully closed thereafter.

Paullin-Hebden suggests that attorneys can build a thriving practice from wherever they may sit. “It’s important for attorneys to know they can have a national practice from Detroit. The key is cultivating a niche practice and then do it better than anyone else,” she said. &nbsp;

Her approach is both strategic and client focused. “In the BDIA world, I know the industry, know the business model and speak the language,” she explained. “Within a few minutes of a meeting with a client, we’re already deep into the details. This creates trust, brings efficiency to the project and makes me a more valuable partner.”

Looking ahead, Paullin-Hebden sees continued growth in the BDIA industry. “M&amp;A deal flow in the BDIA industry will continue as many firm founders are looking to exit and valuations remain high. It’s a good time to sell – I remind owners that it may take a year or two to get a firm ‘sale-ready,’ and that we can help them with that process,” she said.

Paullin-Hebden has 35 years of transaction experience and concentrates her practice in M&amp;A, venture capital, investment adviser compliance and general corporate matters. As co-chair of Warner’s Mergers and Acquisitions Practice Group, she leads nearly 40 attorneys focused on all aspects of M&amp;A transactions for sellers, buyers, investors, independent director committees, management groups and others across the nation.
