Franchise Services

Our wide range of franchise services brings clients to us for a variety of reasons.  Some own dealerships or franchises that the supplier or franchisor is attempting to terminate or refuse to renew.  Others are threatened by the franchisor’s or supplier’s change in policy, a merger or acquisition, cannibalization of existing units, refusal to permit expansion or other unfair practices.

Some clients tell us they have been defrauded, or not told the complete truth about their franchise purchase.  Others feel that the franchisor is not fulfilling its contractual duties.  Some of our clients are just thinking about buying a franchise.

Oftentimes, franchisees come to us in groups because they feel that they have all been wronged; we regularly help groups of franchisees, and we also help them form franchisee associations.

We have helped franchisees, dealers and distributors in over 250 systems resolve their disputes with their franchisors or suppliers, who are shown on our list of Adversaries.  To get a better idea of some of our successes, see our Big Cases.
