Attorney and CPA

[Zach Morton]

I understand the importance of having an attorney who is local so they are up to date on geography-specific laws and regulations, but what about a CPA? I noticed BP has a list of trusted CPA's but they seem to operate nationally instead of locally, would this equate to less specified advice?

On a separate note, what is the best way to go about finding a CPA and an Attorney in a market that I plan to move to soon? The market is Phoenix AZ.
