Our team can assist with applying for ABL permits for grocery stores, bars, restaurants, and other retail locations. We make sure that your application is accurate and fully complete so that you prevent any delays or mishaps that can interrupt business plans and goals. When a license application faces opposition from law enforcement or residents, we can represent you if a protest hearing happens. Cases like these can end up being about how much a business can demonstrate its willingness to operate with the law while considering its surroundings. We can help you with ABL Violation Defense by creating a clear defense, reducing penalties, and protecting your future operations.

We know that temporary license suspensions can greatly affect your profits. We can respond quickly to any enforcement actions while working towards fast solutions that safeguard your income. If the Department of Revenue has denied your license, we can work with you to identify why that happened and how to appeal the decision. Ways that business owners may risk an ABL violation include selling to minors, overserving to intoxicated patrons, contributing to public disorder, selling during restricted hours, selling in unauthorized spaces, transferring alcohol between establishments, not training staff sufficiently, permitting staff to drink on duty, and improper documentation.
