Franchise Law

Franchising is one of the most dynamic and exciting growth vehicles for many businesses in our global economy. One of every three dollars that Americans spend for goods and services is spent in a franchised business. In order to achieve its objectives in the challenging and rewarding franchise world, a franchisor must partner with a law firm that not only understands franchising at the federal level and in all 50 states, but also takes the time to understand the details of the franchisor’s business and objectives.

The franchisor-franchisee relationship is complex and highly interdependent. It raises substantial business issues and legal pitfalls, all of which can lead to formidable conflicts between the parties. To avoid these problems, a franchising arrangement must be structured to afford appropriate opportunity and security to both parties.
