Butzel Receives Prestigious Lex Mundi Equisphere® Deal of the Year Award

DETROIT, Mich. – Lex Mundi recently recognized Butzel as the recipient of the Lex Mundi Equisphere® Deal of the Year Award at the Lex Mundi Annual Conference in Vienna, Austria, recognizing an outstanding multi-jurisdictional matter led by a member firm. Notably, Butzel is the exclusive member firm in Michigan for Lex Mundi–the world’s leading network of independent law firms with in-depth experience in more than 125 countries worldwide.

Butzel represented Altimetrik Corp., an artificial intelligence (AI) and digital engineering firm, in a multi-jurisdictional transaction in which TPG, a leading global alternative asset firm, acquired a majority stake in Altimetrik and its global subsidiaries. The matter included a highly complex merger involving hundreds of shareholders and option holders across jurisdictions, which was followed by a significant acquisition to further support Altimetrik’s long-term growth and global structure.

Butzel lead attorneys included Nicholas J. Stasevich and Jennifer E. Consiglio. Other team members included Arthur Dudley II, Laura A. Johnson, Justin G. Klimko, Lynn McGuire, Shanika A. Owens and Daniel Soleimani. Paralegal Jeanne Balint assisted the team as well.

The transaction required close coordination with 15 Lex Mundi member firms worldwide underscoring the strength, complexity, and scale of collaboration within the Lex Mundi network.
