BOSTON and NEW YORK – Jan. 03, 2023 –J. Gregory Milmoe, a Restructuring & Bankruptcy shareholder in global law firm Greenberg Traurig, LLP’s Boston and New York offices, will be awarded The M&A Advisor’s 2023 Lifetime Achievement Award March 22 at the publication’s awards gala in Palm Beach, Florida.
The M&A Advisor’s Lifetime Achievement Award was established to recognize those who have made extraordinary contributions to the mergers and acquisitions, restructuring, and corporate finance industry. The recipient is selected by a committee of industry leaders who evaluate individuals based on accomplishments, contributions to their firm and community, and lasting effects they have made on their profession and communities.
“We are proud to work with Greg. His commitment and leadership adds tremendous value to our clients and our international practice,” said Shari L. Heyen and David B. Kurzweil, co-chairs of the firm’s Restructuring & Bankruptcy Practice. “This honor could not go to a more deserving individual.”
Roger Aguinaldo, founder and CEO of The M&A Advisor, said Milmoe “encompasses an extraordinary career and is exemplary of excellence and leadership in our field. Similar to previous Lifetime Achievement Award recipients, Greg’s clients, and the restructuring industry in general, have benefited greatly from the innovations and creativity he brought to bear over more than four decades.”
“I am honored to join the ranks of past The M&A Advisor Lifetime Achievement Award winners and thank my peers for this recognition,” Milmoe said. “I am also grateful to Greenberg Traurig and in particular my colleagues in the restructuring group for affording me the opportunity to continue doing what I love to do in the company of wonderful lawyers and people.”
Milmoe has experience on a broad range of corporate matters, including in-court and out-of-court restructurings, exchange offers, hostile and negotiated mergers and acquisitions, leveraged buyouts, and corporate financings including initial and secondary public offerings and transactions involving real estate investment trusts. Milmoe draws on this experience to help fashion pragmatic, sometimes novel strategies for approaching his clients’ complex problems, often incorporating and adapting techniques from various legal disciplines. He has helped devise and refine many innovative restructuring techniques which have now become standard operating procedure.
