A structured, methodical approach to business exit & sell-side law
We assess your corporate records, contracts, and legal standing to identify issues that could reduce your sale price or delay closing, and help you fix them before going to market.
We work with you and your advisors to define your priorities, whether that is maximizing cash at close, minimizing post-closing risk, retaining key terms, or achieving a clean break.
We analyze incoming offers and negotiate letter of intent terms that set you up for a successful transaction, including purchase price structure, exclusivity, and closing conditions.
Managing Partner Alex Lubyansky personally negotiates the definitive purchase agreement, fighting for seller-favorable terms on reps and warranties, indemnification, escrow, and closing mechanics.
We manage the closing process, coordinate with all parties, and handle transition services agreements and non-compete terms so you can exit on your terms.
We don't take every matter. Here is what happens when you reach out.
Alex reviews your transaction details personally. No intake coordinators, no junior associates screening your submission.
We evaluate whether your deal aligns with our practice. Not every matter is a fit, and we will tell you directly if it is not.
If there is alignment, Alex schedules a direct call to discuss your transaction, timeline, and objectives.
Before any work begins, you receive a written engagement letter with defined scope, timeline, and fee structure. No surprises.

Use these before you call any firm, including ours.
At many firms, a partner sells the work and a junior associate does it. Ask for the name of the attorney who will draft and negotiate your documents.
Volume indicates current, active deal experience, not just credentials from years ago.
A $500K SBA acquisition and a $50M PE deal require different skill sets. Make sure the attorney has handled transactions similar to yours.
M&A transactions require a team. Your attorney should work with your other advisors, not in a silo.
Reps, warranties, and indemnification claims surface months after closing. Ask whether the firm handles post-closing litigation or refers it out.
Hourly, flat fee, or hybrid. Ask what factors increase legal costs so there are no surprises.

Ann Arbor's M&A market is uniquely driven by the University of Michigan's massive research enterprise ($1.6B+ in annual research spending), which generates a continuous pipeline of biotech, healthcare IT, and deep-tech spinoffs reaching acquisition maturity. The city has become Michigan's premier tech startup hub, with companies in autonomous vehicles (from the Mcity testing ground), AI/ML, medical devices, and SaaS emerging from the university's commercialization ecosystem. Ann Arbor's proximity to Detroit's automotive industry adds a layer of mobility-tech and connected vehicle deal activity.
Ann Arbor's deal market is characterized by high-quality, IP-rich businesses that attract national strategic and financial buyers. Competition for proven biotech and health IT companies is intense, though earlier-stage spinoffs and services businesses offer more moderately priced entry points. The university's tech transfer office and local accelerators like Ann Arbor SPARK provide early visibility into emerging deal opportunities.
Ann Arbor offers access to University of Michigan's elite engineering, medical, and business talent at a fraction of Silicon Valley's cost, and the city consistently ranks among America's most educated metros. Acquiring here positions buyers in a self-reinforcing innovation ecosystem where university research, hospital system demand, and startup talent create compounding value.
Michigan's non-compete statute requires agreements to be 'reasonable' in duration, geographic scope, and type of activity restricted, and acquirers of university spinoffs should note that the University of Michigan retains certain IP rights through its technology transfer agreements, making thorough intellectual property due diligence essential for any acquisition with university-licensed technology.
Enforceable under statutory framework (MARA). Reformation available.
Entity mergers and conversions are filed with the Michigan Department of Licensing and Regulatory Affairs (LARA), Corporations Division. Annual reports are required. Certain regulated industries require separate filings.

"Stock vs asset gets decided too late in most deals. Sellers want stock. Buyers want assets. By the time the LOI is signed, the default often gets locked in without the seller realizing they just gave up 20% of after-tax proceeds."
