A TABC attorney can help resolve conflicts between alcohol-serving businesses in the same area by providing legal strategies for addressing disputes and ensuring that all parties comply with state laws. Conflicts between businesses often arise due to concerns about competition, noise, or the impact of one establishment on another’s customer base. These disputes can escalate and potentially affect the businesses’ ability to operate. A TABC attorney can help mediate the situation by reviewing the specific concerns raised by each business and providing solutions that comply with local zoning laws and the Texas Alcoholic Beverage Code. For example, if one business is concerned about another’s hours of operation or the types of alcohol being served, the attorney can advise on the legal limits and work to find a resolution that respects the rights of all businesses involved. The attorney may also assist in negotiating a settlement between the parties, such as agreeing to changes in operating hours or noise reduction measures, to prevent the conflict from affecting their alcohol licenses. In some cases, a TABC attorney may represent one business at hearings with the TABC or local authorities to address concerns raised by competitors or community members. By providing expert legal advice and advocacy, a TABC attorney can help resolve conflicts and maintain a cooperative business environment.
