Franchising

The growth in the number of franchising businesses in Australia over the past few years has led to an increasing complexity of franchising systems and new issues arising between franchisees and franchisors.

Our franchising specialists have advised clients, both franchisors and franchisees, on a range of key areas including:

Compliance with franchise agreements
Compliance with the franchising code of conduct
Resolution of disputes arising from franchise agreements
Setting up franchise systems - Preparation of disclosure documents, franchise agreements and licenses.

We have conducted a number of matters in the Supreme Court of NSW in relation to franchise disputes.
