Request Engagement AssessmentAcquisition Stars advises buyers and sellers on sell my business lawyer matters across Georgia. Alex Lubyansky handles every engagement personally, bringing 15+ years of M&A experience to transactions of varying complexity, from lower-middle-market deals to multi-party structures. Georgia amended its non-compete statute in 2011, moving from one of the most restrictive states to one that broadly enforces reasonable covenants. The state also permits blue-pencil modification of overbroad restrictions. Whether you are acquiring a business, selling a company you have built, or navigating a complex transaction, the firm's approach is the same: one experienced attorney on every deal, no handoffs to junior associates.
Share the basics. Alex reviews every inquiry personally and responds within one business day.
Your transaction details are under review. If there is alignment, we will be in touch.

Acquisition Stars represents clients in each of the following markets. Click any city to learn about business sale law services in that area.
Enforceable under 2011 statutory framework. Blue-pencil available.
Enforceable under the Georgia Restrictive Covenants Act (O.C.G.A. Section 13-8-50 et seq.), enacted in 2011 via constitutional amendment. The Act overturned decades of hostile case law and now permits blue-penciling. Covenants must be reasonable in time, geography, and scope. Non-competes in connection with the sale of a business are given broader latitude than employment-based covenants.
Georgia imposes a flat 5.39% corporate income tax (reduced from 5.75% under recent legislation). The state uses single-factor sales apportionment with market-based sourcing. Georgia conforms to most federal tax provisions, including Section 338(h)(10) elections. Film tax credits are transferable and can be relevant when acquiring entertainment industry businesses.
Entity mergers and conversions are filed with the Georgia Secretary of State, Corporations Division. Annual registrations are required. Professional license transfers require separate filings with the relevant Georgia licensing board.
Georgia has repealed UCC Article 6 (Bulk Sales). Buyers should obtain a tax clearance certificate from the Georgia Department of Revenue before closing asset purchases, as successor liability for the seller's unpaid withholding and sales taxes can attach.
