Viva Beverage Law

Viva Beverage Law is a Beverage Law Firm in Charleston, SC. The firm assists SC restaurants, bars, retailers and other hospitality businesses with alcohol licensing, compliance and protection of their licenses. Led by former SC Department of Revenue attorney Lauren Acquaviva, who spent six years handling alcohol‑enforcement matters, the practice draws on deep regulatory experience to guide clients through the complexities of state alcohol law across the entire state.

The firm’s approach centers on translating the often‑confusing licensing system into clear, actionable steps for business owners. After years inside the Department of Revenue, Acquaviva identified recurring mistakes that cost owners time and money, and built Viva Beverage Law to provide stronger protection and fewer preventable problems. Services include comprehensive licensing reviews, compliance counseling, enforcement defense and educational resources that explain common pitfalls, hidden compliance issues and what regulators actually look for. By addressing potential problems early, the firm helps clients avoid delayed openings, denied applications, suspended licenses and costly violations.

Located on Marina Drive, the office is a short walk from Charleston Fire Department Station 20, about 0.2 miles away, and sits near Clouter Creek and Clements Ferry Road, each roughly 0.3 miles distant. The Mark Clark Expressway lies about half a mile away, while Saint Thomas Island Drive and the Shell Ring Amenity Center are a little over a mile from the premises.

With a former state alcohol‑enforcement attorney at the helm, Viva Beverage Law delivers Charleston’s hospitality community knowledgeable, hands‑on support that safeguards the licenses essential to their businesses.
