Texas A&M offers no cost legal services.
Entrepreneurs should discuss with their attorneys the legal aspects of choosing their business entity to separate business and personal assets. Different types of legal entities are associated with varying levels of protection from a liability standpoint. You'll want to mitigate your risk and determine which legal structure is best. You may need assistance with contract agreements, non-disclosures, or other legal forms.
Depending on the type of business, depends on what insurance policies you may be required to have or should consider adding. 

Most companies need some form of liability insurance, workers compensation if the business has employees, and you may need omission and errors insurance.

How to Shop for a Banker:
1. Look at smaller banks and credit unions.
2. Ask for a commercial loan officer: Do they have a lender that works primarily with small businesses and startups?
3. Ask the loan officer for personal experiences helping small businesses ask for a specific example of a small business that they have helped.
