In
this area of practice we act primarily in connection
with the sale and purchase of business involving a
franchise. We also act for franchisees on the initial
grant of a franchise by a franchisor on establishment
of a new business.
If
you are considering acquiring a new franchise or an
existing business operating as a franchise, we can
supply you with checklists to assist in your initial
assessment of the franchise / business. You should
also become familiar with The Franchising Code of
Conduct.
Evaluating
a franchise should be undertaken with the assistance
of appropriate other professionals as well, including
an accountant, tax advisor and financial adviser,
and other advisers appropriate to the particular type
of business / franchise.
We
also act in relation to disputes involving franchises.
