A liquor license is one of the most valuable assets of Nebraska companies in the hospitality industry. Many of our clients will not even open a new location unless they are certain they can obtain a liquor license. Obtaining that license, however, can be a complicated and often costly process. Factors such as the type of business, type of alcohol being sold, and special requirements for the premises will change the application process and can delay the issuance of the liquor license. Our Liquor License and Compliance lawyers work diligently to make the Nebraska liquor license application and compliance process as efficient and cost-effective for clients as possible.
Skilled Legal Services for NE Liquor Licensing
Our liquor license clients span both for-profit and non-profit Nebraska businesses, including bars, restaurants, pubs, breweries, wineries, convenience stores, hotels, music venues, museums, theaters, and seasonal or special event operators. Since there are a variety of liquor license types, both temporary and permanent, we work closely with our clients to understand their specific liquor licensing needs.
