Two local attorneys. 30-min initial consult. Tell Ray what you need before we book it.

CPA partner. Best for "should I be an S-corp" or "how do I close out 2025." Not tax prep.

Lakeshore manufacturing operator. Best for CPG / hard goods founders moving from kitchen-table to small-batch.

Local agency partner. Best if you've got product-market fit and need to scale acquisition.

HR/recruiting practitioner. Best for "should I hire FT or contract" + "how do I write a JD."
