Questions about LLCs

[Hamza F.]

Hello BP,

I had a bunch of questions regarding LLCs - e.g. liability issues, tax implications of owning assets via LLCs (in-state or out of state), etc.

1) I wanted to know that as a first step (with respect to the legal/liability issues) , what kind of attorney should I be contacting for advice? While I understand there are many ' real estate attorneys', I wanted to understand what kind of specializations should I be focused on for advice (and potentially a long-term relationship) on LLCs?

2) Same question as above for accountants/CPAs.

If anyone has recommendations for attorneys and CPAs in the NY area that could help me out, would love any recommendations.

Thanks!
