Perhaps you are thinking about franchising your business, or maybe you are interested in buying a franchise (either directly from the franchisor or from an existing franchisee). Maybe you are currently a franchisor or franchisee and disputes have arisen that are damaging the franchisor/franchisee relationship and your business operations. Or maybe you are a franchisee and you want to open a new location within your territory or you are having issues with a commercial landlord.

Franchise law is complex and comprehensive, and you should have skilled legal counsel on your side.
