Then do it yourself. There are a number of excellent resources available. Nolo was started by an attorney, Jake Warner, who wanted to make legal information affordable for everyone without them having to see a lawyer. Even if you're planning to see a lawyer, I'd recommend you look around Nolo's site before your appointment to better understand what questions to ask. It's oriented towards lawyers, not entrepreneurs, but it's good if you want more in-depth information on a particular legal area, and you're willing to spend the time to work through it.
Many issues require a lawyer, and it's a wise idea to get to know a good lawyer.
