We have acted for and against several established nationwide franchises for many years.

We have a thorough understanding of the laws directly relevant to franchising, leasing and licensing matters, trademark and copyright issues, commercial law and contract law.

We act for both Franchisors and Franchisees on a range of issues including:

  • preparing and advising on legal documentation for new and existing franchises;
  • advice about document compliance with the Franchising Code of Conduct and other relevant legislation;
  • reviewing prospective franchises on behalf of franchisees;
  • disputes regarding franchised businesses;
  • the sale, renewal, transfer or termination of a franchise; and
  • the commercial and property issues that can arise with franchises.

    • We provide top tier services and top tier experience at substantially better rates to those of our competitors and we provide fixed fee costs wherever possible for all of our matters.
