Franchise Law

At Fuksa, Bucaro & Khorshid, LLC we understand the dualist nature of franchise systems and the legal and business issues that arise when developing and joining a franchise system. We also understand the importance of developing franchisor and franchisee relationships to maintain the integrity of that system.

We understand the importance of developing franchisor and franchisee relationships.

The attorneys in our franchise practice draw equally from their legal knowledge and multifarious experiences in handling the consulting matters of restaurant and hospitality clients and thus are able to provide quality legal services to both franchisees and franchisors dealing in those industries.

For prospective franchisors we can perform an initial feasibility evaluation, develop the franchise system (including broker and finder's agreement, suppliers contract negotiation, co-branding agreement development), create offering circulars and operating manuals, register franchise agreements, ensure all intellectual property assets are properly recorded and registered and provide mediation and litigation support, if needed.

For franchisees we can duly inform and educate the client concerning all aspects of joining a franchise system. We explain and negotiate all aspects of the uniform franchising offering circular and other franchise documents, negotiate commercial leases, form corporate entities, advise with respect to immigration issues, draft necessary internal contracts and documents and provide mediation and litigation support, if needed.
