Changing Address and Opening New Locatio

Hello Group. My US based law firm is about to begin two major tasks:

1. Changing our address in our home city. This is creating a number of major concerns regarding our NAP and the potential rank drop. We have our current address listed in hundreds if not thousands of places across the web and are worried about inconsistencies hurting our google ranking. I`m looking for advice on how to most effectively do this, sequence of events, etc...

2. Opening a new location in a new city next to our home city. I have a ton of questions about how to do this correctly, including: how to correctly incorporate the new location into our existing website (use a landing page or just build a new site which would be very duplicative), how to optimize the city locations jointly and separately, social media, using the same phone number, etc...

I would like to schedule (and am willing to pay for) for a few initial consultations with people who have extensive experience with both of these areas. I hope this is an appropriate forum to ask for such help and quotes. I have attempted to find such an expert on my own without much luck. I`m not sure what the best way to get quotes would be...I guess if people respond with contact info, I can call.

I anticipate doing most of the work on my own, so am mostly interested in just a consultation at this point, but may be interested in keeping someone on a retainer as I have questions regularly.
