We help clients navigate the legal and business issues that arise within franchise relationships. Whether you are a franchisee, part of a franchisee association, or building a new franchise system, our team provides practical advice on rights, obligations, agreements, disclosure, compliance, transactions, and disputes.
Franchise relationships involve a mix of business, contractual, disclosure, compliance, and dispute-resolution issues. Himelfarb Proszanski advises clients on the legal needs that arise when entering, operating, expanding, selling, or challenging aspects of a franchise relationship.
We advise franchisees on their rights, obligations, franchise agreements, disclosure documents, renewals, transfers, acquisitions, sales, and issues that arise during the franchise relationship.
We provide strategic advice to franchisee associations navigating collective concerns, franchisor-franchisee issues, negotiations, governance, and disputes affecting groups of franchisees.
We assist start-up and emerging franchise systems with franchise agreements, disclosure documentation, compliance considerations, and legal guidance for launching or expanding a franchise model.
We advise and represent clients in franchise disputes, including claims involving franchise agreements, disclosure issues, franchisor-franchisee obligations, collective franchisee claims, litigation, and class actions.
Franchise relationships combine business goals, contractual obligations, disclosure requirements, operating standards, brand expectations, and long-term commercial realities. The right legal advice should help clients understand their position within that relationship and make informed decisions before issues become more costly or difficult to resolve.
