Legal Question in Business Law in Illinois

I think my E-business may infringe on SEC Laws...What kind of lawyer do I need?

If I have an idea for an E-business that may involve some SEC regulations, and other areas of law. However, I cannot figure out what kind of lawyer to see first. Do I go to someone who deals with online businesses with the hopes he knows what can/can't be done, someone who knows SEC rules, or someone who specializes in the non-online form of what I want to do, but probably doesn't have to deal with the SEC aspects.

The answer is to keep looking until you find someone who is at least familiar with Federal securities law and who understands the issues facing online businesses. Take my word for it, there are a number of attorneys who will fit that criteria.

I have an article on "Finding and Selecting a Business Attorney" at:

that may help you.
