We transform liquor licensing from complexity into opportunity.

Combining creative strategy, trusted brokerage, and white-glove service to help owners, landlords, and brands unlock long-term value.

What We Do

Liquor License Advisor helps businesses navigate the complex world of liquor licensing with clarity, confidence, and speed. We work with restaurant groups, national retailers, landlords, liquor store owners, and their advisors to buy, sell, and optimize liquor licenses across the country.

Our work spans three divisions: Liquor License Advisor, the go-to partner for multi-state licensing and compliance strategy; Retail Beverage Partners, which specializes in licensing for landlords, big-box retailers, and store-in-store projects; and Liquor Store Advisor, focused on brokerage, referrals, and strategic acquisitions of liquor stores and licenses.

At every level, we’re known for simplifying the process, delivering white-glove service, and getting deals done, even when they’re complex, high-stakes, or time-sensitive. If it involves a liquor license, we know how to handle it.

Why Choose Us

Stephen V. Miller, Esq.

McDermott, Quilty & Miller, LLP

We have been working with Dan for almost two decades on liquor license transactions. His years of experience, knowledge and his ability to work through complex licensing issues made him a valuable resource for our firm.

Louis A. Cassis, Esq.

As a law office which specializes in license applications and transfers, Liquor License Advisor is by far, the most professional brokerage firm that I have ever dealt with in my 37 years of practice.

Joseph Devlin, Esq.

Upton Connell & Devlin, LLP

Dan and his team are the first - and usually only - stop when I have a client who is looking for a license or looking to sell. They constantly review inventory in communities across the state, maintain contact with potential buyers and sellers and stay focused on the goal of a successful license transfer from even before the offer is signed. Their attention to detail, willingness to do any task and constant communication regarding upcoming milestones assist us in delivering the best possible result for our clients.

Joanne Audette, Esq

I recently hired Dan Newcomb and Liquor License Advisor to facilitate what can only be described as an absurdly difficult all alcohol liquor license transfer. I am not exaggerating when I say that I do not believe that anybody other than Dan and his team could have gotten this transaction completed and especially under the serious time constraints we faced. Dan never gave up even when I was ready to myself. If you want to hire somebody who knows the business, knows the players and knows how to get things done, you won’t go wrong with Dan and his team at LLA.

Gene Richard

Huwitz, Richard & Sencabaugh LLP

I have always found Dan Newcomb and his team to be knowledgeable, professional, efficient and personable. Yes, they maximize value for their clients, but they also prize the establishment and maintenance of long-term relationships and best practices with the liquor industry.

Carrie Chadbourne

Bloomin’ Brands, Inc.

I have worked with many brokers over the years and consider Dan and team to be the best of the best! Not only do they provide quick professional results, they stay with you throughout the process to ensure the deal moves smoothly and that both parties are satisfied. Without question, they have simplified a process that I used to consider stressful and burdensome.
