“We strive to give more in value than we take in payment.”
The attorneys at Taylor, Feil, Harper, Lumsden & Hess, P.C. (“TFH”) have over 100 years of combined hospitality and beverage-alcohol industry experience. Since its inception in 1978, the full-service commercial firm has had a heavy focus on the hospitality industry and, more specifically, the beverage-alcohol industry.
The beverage-alcohol industry is highly regulated and governed by a complex web of laws from multiple, intersecting jurisdictions. We help individuals and companies navigate this gauntlet with care, foresight, and precision to protect them from mishaps and position them for success.
We have been a leader in this practice area for nearly 40 years. We are regularly asked by government officials, legislators, and trade organizations to explain the ins and outs of the industry.
Ultimately, our goal is to give our clients more in value than we take in payment. We avoid the highly-leveraged law firm model adopted by some firms. Instead, we provide our clients with hands-on service by experienced attorneys who are responsive and accessible, and who work shoulder to shoulder with our clients to meet their needs and goals.
Our beverage-alcohol practice encompasses all phases of operations, including company structuring and governance; licensing and permitting; franchise regulation and distribution; trade practices regulation; promotions regulation (including regulation of point of sale materials and consumer specialty advertising); brand and label regulation; trademark; taxation (including excise taxes and sales-and-use taxes); importation; and related real estate, leasing, and landlord-tenant matters.
We also handle related federal and state court litigation such as constitutional and antitrust challenges to the three-tier system for regulation of alcoholic beverages.
We are Georgia’s only full-service beverage-alcohol practice.
