BALTIMORE, MD -- Zarren Law Group, LLC (ZLG), a boutique business transactional law firm, is pleased to announce it has represented Wheelhouse Group LLC in its sale to The Cadmus Group LLC.

Wheelhouse Group, a premier provider of change management services, has been acquired by Cadmus, a leading provider of technical and strategic expertise to governments, energy utilities, and private sector companies worldwide.

With this acquisition, Wheelhouse will form a new Strategy and Transformation line of business within Cadmus’ U.S. public sector division. Co-founder and president Beth McDonald will lead the new line of business as a Cadmus senior vice president. Wheelhouse co-founder and CEO Laurie Axelrod will support Wheelhouse’s successful integration into Cadmus and provide consulting services post-integration.

“We are thrilled for Laurie, Beth and the rest of the Wheelhouse and Cadmus teams on this exciting and opportunistic transaction and feel very fortunate to have been a part of it,” said Adam Zarren, Managing Partner of ZLG.

“The excellent representation and valuable advice we received from ZLG throughout this process was outstanding. The whole team stepped up and delivered on a very compressed timeframe, and the breadth of expertise they offered across M&A, govcon, tax, and employment matters was especially impressive. We are so happy to have selected them over the large law firms,” said Wheelhouse CEO Laurie Axelrod.

Wheelhouse is based in Fairfax, Virginia and delivers high-impact professional services to executives in federal agencies across four core competencies: organizational change management, stakeholder engagement and communications, workforce transformation, and enterprise optimization. They offer specialized expertise in particularly challenging transformations, including the adoption of complex, enterprise-wide technology, customer experience (CX), DevSecOps/Agile culture building, accessibility and inclusion, artificial intelligence (AI) integration, cloud adoption, and cybersecurity mindset.

Enhanced by Wheelhouse’s expertise, Cadmus will offer clients the deep management and technical expertise necessary to achieve meaningful and lasting benefits for their stakeholders, especially in the IT modernization, citizen services, and workforce transformation spaces.
