WA Attorney Recommendation Joint Venture

[Jesse Watson]

Hi! My wife and I live in Edmonds, WA, and we own and operate one STR in AZ and we are working on buying our second property (likely in PA or FL).

Thinking ahead to our third property we want to explore a partnership model and we need some education and guidance for how to structure things safely for all parties involved. Likely this would be an LLC with a Joint Venture agreement, but we have to ask some stupid questions and we're having trouble finding much concrete information out there on how to structure partnership deals (the advice is always "Any way you want to!" ... not so helpful).

So looking for any referrals to good attorneys with experience in this space with whom folks have had good experiences.

Thanks!

PS - Bonus question: Since we are based in WA, and would be operating the LLC from WA, so we assume a business attorney with real estate experience based in WA state is the way to go, even if the properties are elsewhere- please correct us if we are mistaken!
