Franchise Agreement
How long should it be, and what should it cover? Will there be Master Franchisees? What are the legal requirements in your target countries? How should contractual issues be resolved?
The Franchise Agreement is the key contract that establishes the legal relationship between the franchisor and the franchisees. A good agreement takes into consideration both the legal and the practical issues that can, and do, arise in a franchised business. Topfranchise.net has established working relationships with eminent UK solicitors that specialise in UK and international franchise law. These relationships together with extensive practical experience of working with, as well as drafting, franchise agreements mean that Topfranchise.net is uniquely placed. We can work with you and your franchise lawyer to establish a contract that is appropriate for your business and the country in which you plan to operate.
Even the best franchise business need to make recourse to the franchise agreement at some time. Resolution through the courts can be expensive and time consuming, often diverting the franchisors' attention from their business. Protocols for the resolution of differences need to be in place, again Topfranchise.net's practical experience will prove invaluable.
