Hanahan, SC Restaurant Bar License Lawyer

Hanahan restaurant bars need several licenses to be in compliance with state and city laws. A prerequisite to applying for any retail alcohol license in South Carolina is to have an active South Carolina Retail License. Once a business has this, they need to obtain an On-Premises Beer & Wine Permit (PBW), Business Liquor by the Drink License (PLB), a Grade A Restaurant License, and a Hanahan Business License. If the restaurant bar is planning to serve liquor on Sundays, it will also have to get a Local Option Permit (LOP).

A Hanahan restaurant bar license lawyer can help to determine which licenses you need and can guide you through this complicated process so that it feels easy. Compared to bigger South Carolina cities, the City of Hanahan has stricter zoning and Sunday sales laws. This, in addition to SC’s already tricky alcohol license laws, can make it difficult and frustrating to apply for the correct licenses in the correct order. A bar restaurant license lawyer can handle the legal aspects of this for you so that you can focus your time and energy on running your business. 

Common mistakes that put a business’s alcohol permits in jeopardy, that even the most conscientious and law-abiding restaurant bar owners and their employees make, include failing to check ID and letting minors drink alcohol, operating outside legally set business hours, and not keeping patrons in check by allowing fights, disorderly conduct, and overserving intoxicated guests. If your liquor license is being threatened, a good bar lawyer can help you deal with this.

Why Experience Matters In A Bar Restaurant Lawyer

Having a good beer and wine license lawyer helping you to obtain, keep, and if needed, defend your ability to keep your license, allows you to do what you got into this business to do, run your restaurant bar, and to keep your customers happy and coming back. When you hire Attorney Lauren, you are hiring someone who:

  • Worked for six years for the South Carolina Department of Revenue (SCDOR) litigating alcohol licensing and tax matters on behalf of the Department. 
  • Because of her experience working for the SCDOR, she has a unique advantage in helping her clients with their SC alcohol licensing issues because of her understanding of how the department works internally.
  • Tried over 100 tax and alcohol license cases at the South Carolina Administrative Law Court.
