Sure an advisor can assist with this. Check with the adminstrator for the ESOP plan first, they may be able to give you the help you need. An advisor will be able to help you with the best tax strategies for taking these distributions as well as managing the proceeds.

In many cases, there is an advisor to the plan that is well versed in the specific plan and can assist you with no additional fee.
