Structure. Leverage. Disciplined Execution.

Alex Lubyansky is a selective SMB transaction advisor and managing partner of Acquisition Stars. He operates at the intersection of structure, leverage, and decision authority - serving founders and investors with clear objectives and real capital behind their decisions.

With over 15 years in M&A, Alex built Acquisition Stars around a simple principle: fewer clients, higher caliber, better outcomes. He personally handles every transaction - from LOI through closing - because the deals he takes on deserve that level of attention.

How We Operate

Practice Areas

  • M&A Transactions (Buy-Side & Sell-Side)
  • Securities Structuring
  • Exit Planning
  • Acquisition Architecture
  • Contract Negotiation

Engagement Standards

  • Authority must be clear
  • Capital must be real
  • Scope must be defined
  • Timeline must exist
  • Engagement begins after strategic assessment

Selectivity as a Standard

We do not optimize for volume. Volume creates noise. Noise creates reactive work. Reactive work destroys focus. Selective firms protect capacity. Capacity produces better deals.

Most matters are handled asynchronously with structured updates. We do not provide free diagnostic sessions. We do not engage without alignment on scope, economics, and objectives.

Background

  • University of Michigan - Competed as goalkeeper at the collegiate level
  • 2005 NPSL National Championship MVP - Led Detroit Arsenal to national title
  • Current Head Coach & GM - Detroit Metro FC

Athletic discipline informs how the practice operates: structured systems, scope control, and calm execution under pressure.

The standards that govern every engagement

Selectivity

We do not optimize for volume. We engage when authority, capital, and scope are aligned.

Structure

Autonomy

We protect client focus, scope clarity, and role definition. No reactive chaos. No scope drift.
