Wine, Beer, & Spirits

From conceptual development to distribution, we work with you to advance the development of your vineyard, winery, brewery or distillery by combining expertise from Buckley Law’s broad range of practice areas to customize our legal services to your needs. Whether you own hundreds of acres or produce just a few hundred cases or bottles every year, we can handle your work with experience and confidence.

Our wine, beer, and spirits industry attorneys are highly qualified to handle issues pertaining to land acquisition and zone changes, employment issues such as migrant worker issues and employment agreements, and business needs such as entity formation, trademarks, licensing, and permits and sale contracts. We recognize that wineries, vineyards, breweries, and distilleries are often family-owned businesses. Therefore, we also offer services from our business succession practice group so that the owners of those businesses may smoothly transition the business from one generation to the next. We understand that the northwest wine, beer, and spirits industry is built on passion, ingenuity, and hard work.
