Liquor License Applications in New York

The liquor license application process can be complex and time consuming. In addition, you may also be required to appear before the local community board or even the New York State Liquor Authority.

Liquor Licenses Do Not Transfer to New Business Owners

When a business with a liquor license is sold to a new owner or operator, the liquor license is not simply transferred. The New York State Liquor Authority requires new owners and operators to obtain a Temporary Retail Permit and go through the application process in order to obtain a permanent license.

To ensure you properly complete all the paperwork and prepare yourself for any questions that local and state authorities may ask, having Attorney Belkin on your side can make a significant difference. If your application is initially denied, he can fix any issues that resulted in the rejection and help you reapply.
