Our Services
Setting up new franchises - We offer comprehensive legal assistance to franchisees who are looking to set up new franchises. We can help you navigate the complex process of negotiating with franchisors, reviewing Franchise Disclosure Documents (FDDs), and securing financing.
Acquiring franchise businesses - If you are interested in acquiring an existing franchise business, we can help you review the FDD and the franchise agreement to ensure that the terms are favorable to you. We will also help you negotiate the terms of the purchase agreement and other related documents.
Reviewing Franchise Disclosure Documents - The FDD is a legal document that franchisors are required to provide to prospective franchisees. Our lawyers are skilled in reviewing FDDs and can help you understand the terms and conditions of the franchise agreement, including the financial obligations, territorial rights, and marketing requirements.
Assisting in securing financing - We understand that securing financing for a franchise can be a challenging process. Our lawyers can provide guidance on the types of financing available and help you negotiate favorable terms with lenders.
