Document company boosts growth strategy

Avalon Document Services, a Syracuse, N.Y.-based document firm that works with law firms and corporations, acquired Tampa-based Southeastern Document Services.

Terms of the deal weren't disclosed.

Avalon opened an office earlier this year in Tampa, at 400 North Ashley Drive, and staffed it with 10 employees. The firm plans to combine the SDS and Avalon offices into one location by October, according to a release, and employees are expected to retain their jobs. Ken McKee, former owner of SDS, will remain with the company, as an executive in the legal services division, the release adds.
