Franchising

Franchises are a popular way for individuals to start their own businesses with the backing of an established brand and business process.

Under a franchise, a complete business system is licensed to a franchisee for a certain number of years. Well-known examples of franchise businesses include McDonalds, Mister Minit and Starbucks.

A franchise is a long-term undertaking, so before making any contractual or financial commitment, seeking the advice of solicitors specialising in franchising is a wise investment. 

We are experienced in acting for both franchisors and franchisees and can provide full advice in relation to all aspects of franchise agreements, including general issues relating to structure and organisation and disputes arising from the performance of the franchise.
