Huron Consulting Group (NASDAQ: HURN), a leading provider of business consulting services, today announced that Monty Kehl and Tim Martin have joined its Business Advisory practice as managing directors.

DiDonato, managing director and Huron Business Advisory practice leader. “Huron’s clients will benefit from the years of diverse experience they bring to our practice.”

Kehl has more than 20 years of financial advisory consulting experience focused on assisting troubled companies and their creditors to identify and implement solutions to improve and resolve financial distress.

Kehl joins Huron from Mesirow Financial Consulting, LLC.

Martin has more than 15 years of experience providing forensic, investigative and financial advisory services in support of complex commercial litigation. He has worked on investigations involving allegations relating to the misappropriation of funds, Ponzi and pyramid schemes, accounting and financial statement reporting issues, fraudulent transfers, securities fraud, allegations against directors and officers, and professional malpractice.
