cutting granite countertop

Hi,everyone. We have an "L" shaped island in our kitchen We would like to remove and reuse the granite countertop, but it would mean just making 2 straight cuts to alter its size. It only has to be cut about 22" on 1 side, and 42" on the other. There are only 3 cabinets that the granite is laying on. Is this something that should be left to professionals- if it can even be done at all? Since they would have the proper tools, would there still be a high risk of the granite breaking? As I said, there are only 2 straight cuts to be made. No obstacles ---kitchen sink, etc. Thank you for your help!
Gregg and Kathy
