Alcohol and Tobacco Violations

An Advocate For You and Your Business

If your business has recieved that dreaded pink ticket, a notice of violation from the Washington State Liquor Control Board for non-compliance with the liquor code, or as the result of an agency compliance check, don't make the mistake of fighting the violation by yourself. Whether your restaurant failed an age compliance check, or your bar has been cited for occupancy violations, prompt action on your part to hire a liquor license violation attorney can help you to avoid a license suspension and/or losing your liquor license altogether.

Assisting licensees with tobacco and liquor violations is not simply a matter of mitigating the penalty; it is important to fix the cause of the issue. My practice includes providing guidance and representation to the owners of restaurants, bars, retail shops, and other establishments who have been cited by the Washington Liquor Control Board for licensing violations. In addition to representing clients to the Washington State Liquor Control Board, I also assist with developing in-house policies and training procedures to protect against future violations.

In addition to working with retail licensees, my law office also represents producers, wholesalers, importers, and distributors of alcoholic beverages in licensing, compliance, regulatory and legislative issues.
