HOW CAN I GET MY LIQUOR LICENSE?
Blake & Ayaz is the premier law firm in California for retail establishments such as bars, nightclubs, liquor stores, markets, gas stations, restaurants, wholesaler/importers, and all other food and beverage industries. The firm represents first-time entrepreneurs, multi-unit operators, large hotel chains and all other industry people.
The state of California possesses the exclusive right and power to license and regulate the manufacture, sale, purchase, possession and transportation of alcoholic beverages within the state. Understanding the applicable laws and applying them to each facility requesting a license can be a daunting process. Blake & Ayaz has mastered every aspect of the Alcoholic Beverage Control Act and constitutional provisions as outlined by the 14th Amendment that grants the state power to control, restrict and issue alcoholic beverage licenses. The firm handles all retail, wholesale and importers’ liquor license applications. They also represent clients in all matters that arise throughout the lifetime of their liquor licenses, including the resolution of disciplinary matters, the filing of renewal applications, filing the various alterations and change applications that may be required, and the transfer of a license.
Because there is no inherent right for a citizen to engage in the business of selling alcohol, the city will often try and exercise their use of police power to prohibit the use and the manner involving the sale of alcohol. It is common for ABC to assert that a citizen is forbidden from selling alcohol due to public morals, health and safety, and thus, grant unreasonable conditions before issuing a license. Blake & Ayaz skillfully and aggressively contests such conditional uses unreasonably applied to alcoholic beverage licenses.
