DOES MY LAWYER NEED TO BE LICENSED IN THE STATE WHERE I BUY A BUSINESS?
I've heard it both ways from preliminary conversations with lawyers - some say they can't work outside a state where they are licensed, and others (some who I see comment on this site) are more than willing to work deals in any state.
Should I wait to identify a target business, and then find a lawyer licensed in that same state, or should I establish a relationship now with a lawyer who is willing to work wherever I find a deal?
