QXO, Inc., a major distributor of building products in North America, has announced plans to acquire Kodiak Building Partners for approximately $2.25 billion in cash and stock.

The legal team includes corporate partners Nickolas Bogdanovich, David Huntington and Scott Barshay; partners David Sobel and David Hong; executive compensation partner Christopher Gonnella; tax partner Scott Sontag and counsel Alyssa Wolpin; intellectual property partner Jonathan Ashtor; antitrust partner Yuni Sobel; environmental counsel William O’Brien; and litigation counsel Audrey Paquet.
