ABC Lawyer South Carolina

Many people use the terms ABC and ABL interchangeably, as they are acronyms commonly used in the alcohol licensing industry. Both terms refer to the governmental agency that regulates alcohol licenses and the regulation of alcohol in general.. As our South Carolina ABC lawyer explains, the state uses the term ABL (Alcohol Beverage Licensing) in an official manner, while business owners often use the term ABC (Alcoholic Beverage Control). There are many types of ABL permits that you may require for your business. This could include a Restaurant Liquor by the Drink License for consumption on-site, a Beer and Wine Permit for on or off-site use, Special Event Licenses for temporary event sales, or a Retail Liquor Store License for sales of bottled liquor off-premises. With guidance from our ABC attorney, we can ensure you are applying for the correct license and that your application is completed both correctly and timely.

Even the most careful business owners with good intentions may receive a fine if they violate the ABL laws for South Carolina. Violation penalties can include license suspension, a  fine per breach, license revocation, and/or criminal charges. If you have been faced with a violation or need assistance to make sure you remain in compliance, our ABC attorney can help you. We know how stressful it can be to run a business, especially when it involves alcohol.
