A contract lawyer, if your going to sign anything. They specify in contract law. Depending what type of business you will want to specify earnings, salary, and responsibility
Look for a firm/attorney specializing (having a practice) in "Business Law" or "Corporate Practice" including "Business Formations", "Emerging Businesses", "Start-ups", etc. That should get the ball rolling. You may need other expertise in labor law, intellectual property, etc. depending on your business. You can use separate firms/lawyers for these or use a firm that has everything in house. I suggest meeting and interviewing several lawyers and getting recommendations from successful business people in your locale, before you make a decision.
LLC lawyers will do it for cheap. You can look them on the internet. Just put in LLC
