Re: What type of attorney should I use to sell my business?
Depending upon the size of the transaction there are generally two types of attorneys involved in the selling process. The first one is a transactional attorney and they have the responsibility to write the purchase and sale agreement and review all documents involving the sale. The other attorney is a tax/estate attorney. Their responsibility is to minimize the tax burden after you have received the money. They usually write wills, trusts and tax sheltering documents.
