Franchise Law
Franchising is never something to take lightly. You’ll want dedicated attorneys to guide you through this layered process while prioritizing your best interest — always. Not a lot of lawyers practice franchise law, but we do. Better yet, we’ve represented both sides of multiple franchising agreements, so we know how to avoid all of the problems that can arise. FBFK attorneys will help you with franchise disclosure documents, franchise agreements and development agreements.
