Do you have your LLM? Maybe join a law firm as an associate?

No I don't have an LLM ....associates are so under paid unless you work for a top 5 law firm. I have in house experience that's what am considering

I think if you can go in house, do it - esp if you don't have a LLM

I have an asset purchase of a retail store transaction. Seller is keeping the second location. Seller is licensing the name from the buyer.
