With everything that goes into starting a business, the last thing you need to worry about is legal permits. No matter what type of industry you are in, chances are it takes all kinds of licenses. In addition to the actual work licenses, you also have all of the building and contracting licenses that have to be in order as well. The point is, failing to have the right permits can have a far more serious impact than many other missteps.
The problem with getting all of the correct licensing is that it can be hard to know what is actually needed. It can vary from city to city and county to county. It can require a yearly permit, a lifetime permit, or anything in between. And as we already mentioned, different businesses need specific licenses.
If you own a bar or some other establishment that sells alcohol, doing so requires a license. Most people wouldn’t miss that one. But are you sure that you wouldn’t overlook something like a permit about the size and placement of your sign? Even though it may not seem like that big of a deal, the impact it could have on your business could be severe. Something as simple as working with a legal partner could help you to avoid these headaches.
Maybe you plan on hosting events such as birthday parties, anniversaries, reunions, and various other social gatherings. There are all kinds of building and structural, electrical, plumbing, capacity, and fire permits, as well as many others which must be filed and approved.
Anything from minor to serious fines all the way up to immediate closure of your business could come as a result of not having the proper licenses. Whiles fines and negative inspections may be easier to handle, interruption to your business activities is not.
