The JMC team brings a strong combination of talent and experience that aligns well with our core services. We are very excited about the new opportunities to expand our services in this region and we look forward to working with our new partners to deliver best-in-class solutions for clients.”

According to Colvin, “We are thrilled to become part of a company with such a great reputation and industry-leading position as SAM. We look forward to helping bring a broader level of service and capabilities to clients in our region.”

SAM has acquired all operating assets of JMC, including its existing offices. This will now give SAM a total of 34 offices nationwide. As of November 30, 2019, all employees of JMC became part of SAM, LLC.
