Answer
Thank you for your great question. It turns out that I was exploring a similar question with my lawyer in Alberta, Canada. Best business practice advice was to hire a USA lawyer within the State your are intending to do business. Many larger law firms in Canada for example can refer to other firms in the USA. Also, there may be a level of firm-to-firm coordination for the business. Best regards with your situation.
