Hospitality & F&B

Hospitality and F&B representation at KADOSH is a specialized practice area led by an attorney with direct experience owning and operating three food and beverage concepts in Miami’s Wynwood neighborhood. This practice provides strategic legal and operational counsel for restaurateurs, bar owners, and hospitality groups, focusing on commercial leasing, liquor licensing, management agreements, and labor compliance. By combining legal expertise with first-hand operational knowledge, KADOSH ensures that F&B businesses are structured for scalability and protected against the unique regulatory and financial risks of the hospitality industry.

From the Back-of-House to the Boardroom

Most hospitality lawyers have never had to manage a P&L during a slow summer in Miami or negotiate with a vendor while the line is out the door. Yediel Kadosh has. Having owned and operated three F&B concepts—including the Charly’s Vegan Tacos Tulum-to-Miami expansion and the Ciao Bella natural wine bar—Yediel brings a "restaurateur’s eye" to every legal document.

We understand that in the F&B world, a "good" legal deal is only good if it allows for operational reality. We speak your language, from prime costs to liquor liability.

F&B Concept Launch & Market Entry

‍Whether you are bringing a successful international concept to Miami or launching your first pop-up, we navigate the "Miami Maze." We advise on entity structuring, private equity raises, and the "market entry" logistics unique to the Florida hospitality landscape.

Commercial Leasing & Site Acquisition

‍Your lease is your most dangerous or most valuable asset. We negotiate for tenant-favorable terms on build-out periods, CAM (Common Area Maintenance) audits, and "Good Guy" guarantees that protect your personal assets.

Liquor Licensing & Regulatory Compliance

‍Navigating the DBPR and local zoning for 4COP, 2COP, or SRX licenses can stall a launch for months. We manage the application process and provide ongoing counsel on health department standards and municipal code enforcement.

Management & Operating Agreements

‍We structure internal agreements between partners, celebrity chefs, and management companies. We ensure that the "chain of command" is clear and that equity and profit distributions are protected for the long term.
