Need assistance filing my I-485 and EAD for GreenCard - USA

My priority date of 2013 is currently under the EB-2 category. My new employer filed my PERM application is approved.

My employer is planning to file my I-140 under regular processing.

I had a retail theft case (Class A misdemeanor) in 2014 ( it was a misunderstanding ). I completed five weeks of community service. The case was dismissed and expunged in 2015.

I will need assistance filing my I-485 and EAD.

Please let me know the following:

1. What process do we need to follow to file the I-485 and EAD?
2. What documents are required from my employer to file my I-485 and EAD?
3. Since my employer will file the I-140 and you will file the I-485, how will these two processes work together?
4. Other than this case, I have never had any legal issues. Based on my understanding, this matter falls under the “petty offense exception.” While I understand it must be disclosed only, do we also need to file a criminal waiver (Form I-601, 212(h) waiver of inadmissibility) with USCIS?
5. I will defiantly share all the details in my application, but what all complication might come and how to deal with this ?
6. Any specialist attorney can you recommend ?

What would be the best approach you would recommend in my current situation?

I'm confused by this. You mention a 2013 Priority Date, what's that for if the I-140 hasn't been filed yet? What's your current status in the US? And what's your home country?
