About the Seminar
Though franchises often seem to clients like vehicles to assured success, they are nonetheless risky ventures. The task for lawyers advising clients about franchises is to counsel them about setting reasonable expectations and help them understand the practical implications of the franchise agreement. This is no easy task because these agreements are a complex arrangement of restrictions, fees, operational requirements, intellectual property protections and reporting periods. But understanding how these agreements work - and the range of what's negotiable and what's not - is essential to client success. This program will provide you with a real world guide to the framework of franchise law, practical due diligence of franchise opportunities, and reviewing and negotiating the most important provisions of franchise agreements.

- Practical guide to reading/understanding a Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD)
