I'm also adjusting from an L1A. We didn't use a lawyer. You just need to read the forms carefully, gather the required documents then fill out the forms and mail the packet in. It's doable if you can read and follow instructions. We filed i130, 1485, i864, i131, i765, g325a/g325 (for spouse and myself), and another form I can't remember that lets you get email updates.

If you're going to include the beneficiary's income in the i864 then include (IN ADDITION TO OTHER STUFF THEY ASK FOR)  a letter from your job, 6 mths of paystubs, current tax return and copy of your i94 and a copy of your l1a visa page. We didn't include the current taxes and copy of i94 and got an RFE.

 

Good Luck!
