Sheppard Mullin represented CriticalPoint Capital, LLC (CriticalPoint) in connection with the sale of United Engineers & Constructors, Inc. (UECI) to Aecon Group Inc., a North American construction and infrastructure development company.

CriticalPoint, a leading Los Angeles-based investor, acquired the 120-year-old UECI in 2020 from its former public owner. During its ownership, CriticalPoint transformed UECI into an independent business, focused on zero carbon and electrical grid resiliency projects across the U.S. and internationally, leading to significant revenue and earnings growth.

This follows on an earlier transaction in May of 2024 where Sheppard Mullin represented CriticalPoint in the divestiture of the power delivery business of UECI to a subsidiary of Pike Corporation in a separate transaction.

The Sheppard Mullin team that represented CriticalPoint was led by partner and leader of the firm's Mergers and Acquisitions team Zac Turke and partner Ed Xia, and included partners Michael Chan, John Crisp, Frank Dworak, Shawn Fabian, Keahn Morris, Drew Svor, Carlo Van den Bosch and Reid Whitten, special counsel Jonathan Barker and associates Coby Shirazi, Michael Weisshar and Jeffrey Kozono.
