Our objective is to help you identify opportunities and overcome challenges at every stage. From the outset, we support franchisors by drafting disclosure documents and managing related state filings, as well as providing strategic advice for emerging franchisors. When you are widening your reach, we advise on transactions, strategic growth opportunities and international expansion. And as you operate, we protect you with counsel on disputes/litigation with franchisees, data privacy protection, technology and cybersecurity issues, the supply chain, advertising, system encroachment concerns, and brand protection.
