We engage selectively with capitalized founders and investors in Troy and nationwide:
Detroit's M&A market is experiencing a renaissance driven by the automotive industry's massive shift to electric vehicles, creating unprecedented acquisition opportunities across the EV supply chain, battery technology, and autonomous driving systems. Beyond automotive, Detroit's manufacturing expertise extends to aerospace, defense, and industrial automation, with a deep pool of established businesses built over generations. The metro area's combination of world-class engineering talent, affordable real estate, and proximity to the Canadian border makes it uniquely positioned for both domestic and cross-border transactions.
Detroit's deal market offers exceptional value - established manufacturing and technology businesses trade at lower multiples than comparable companies on the coasts. Many are second or third-generation family businesses with strong fundamentals and loyal customer bases, creating ideal acquisition targets for PE-backed platforms.
Metro Detroit has the highest concentration of engineers per capita in the US and sits at the center of the North American automotive supply chain. The region's ongoing economic revitalization, combined with Michigan's skilled workforce and affordable cost structure, creates compelling acquisition opportunities with significant upside potential.
Michigan's non-compete statute permits reasonable restrictions on competition but courts apply strict scrutiny - agreements must be reasonable in duration, geographic scope, and type of activity restricted, and Michigan's personal property tax on business equipment must be factored into asset purchase valuations.
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.
