Our years of extensive experience assisting clients in the hospitality industry will help ensure that you receive the best legal representation and advice while you focus on the customer service necessary to make your business succeed.
Corporate
Our Corporate attorneys regularly assist in creating or reviewing Buy-Sell agreements, franchise agreements, financing agreements and other documents necessary to the creation and ongoing maintenance of entities engaged in the foodservice and hospitality industry.
Licensing and Permitting
We regularly assist clients in obtaining the licenses and permits necessary to start, buy or operate a restaurant or other food service vendor. These may include state or local Business Privilege Licenses, Food Service Licenses, a Liquor License, and other permits.
Licenses differ depending on the type of business and the location. Our firm regularly handles liquor license proceedings before the Pennsylvania Liquor Control Board (PLCB) and other agencies for a long list of restaurant and tavern clients.
Real Estate Transfers and Leases
We regularly assist clients in drafting or reviewing restaurant leases to ensure that the agreement is appropriate to the type of business and the risk involved. Often the sale of a foodservice or hospitality business will include the sale of the real estate.
Real estate is one of our most active practice areas and we can assist clients with selecting the most advantageous way to take title to the real estate and all provide advice on all aspects of operating a business that involves a primary business along with the ownership of the real estate.
