Copeland Buhl managing partner Nate Lilleodden said: “Joining Frazier & Deeter creates tremendous opportunity for our clients and our people.
“We are thrilled to join a firm that shares our deep commitment to client service, quality and long-term relationships.
“Becoming part of FD gives our team access to broader resources, expanded service capabilities and a global platform, while allowing us to continue serving the Twin Cities marketplace we love and know so well.”
The deal gives FD its first base in the Midwest and extends its footprint into the Minneapolis-St Paul (Twin Cities) region.
As agreed, FD will absorb Copeland Buhl into its operations and support functions, giving it quick access to company-wide technology, talent development, finance, marketing and business development resources.
FD CEO Jeremy Jones said: “We are excited to welcome the Copeland Buhl team to Frazier & Deeter and to officially establish our first Midwest presence in the Minneapolis-St. Paul area.
“The Twin Cities represent a vibrant, growing marketplace with strong business fundamentals and an exceptional talent pool.
“This acquisition aligns with our long-term growth strategy to serve markets where people want to work and live, and strengthens our ability to deliver exceptional service to clients nationally while continuing to invest in local markets.”
FD delivers tax, audit, risk advisory, digital and business transformation services, supporting clients worldwide from offices in the US, India and the UK.
Last month, FD appointed Michael Cohn as its new chief financial officer.
