California Dog Cafe Attorney
Looking for a California Dog Cafe Attorney
to Help Startup a Dog Cafe?
Our Startups, Business & Corporations practice is focused on helping business owners and entrepreneurs with a wide variety of business tasks.
Dog Cafes are the newest addition to the California specialty coffeeshop market, and in 2014 the very first Dog Cafe in the nation began in Los Angeles, California. Bringing a dog cafe to a nearby shopping area can be a lucrative venture that connect Americans’ love of coffee with man’s best friend. If you are an entrepreneur or investor contemplating bringing a dog cafe to the market in your area, you will need a California dog cafe attorney to help with a variety of legal tasks, including structuring the entity, complying with state laws, obtaining the necessary health permits, dealing with zoning, insurance, and various other matters. Operating a dog cafe is an emerging type of business and involves the intersection of a few different segments of law, including state law, business and corporations law, real estate law, licensing and permits, and health law. With any new venture making inroads in an emerging area in the marketplace, some times the governmental agencies regulating businesses are unequipped to handle new ventures that fall outside of the rubric of traditional businesses, and so, legal counsel is necessary to help navigate the various “to-dos” to bring the product or service to the marketplace.
