Our team of franchise solicitors provide practical, client-specific legal advice to prospective franchisors looking to set up a franchise, as well as advice on franchise disputes and assistance with commercial property matters.

One of the first considerations for a franchisor should be a franchise agreement. Such an agreement will frame the structure of the franchise from the outset, from which a network of franchise businesses can be built.

Birkett Long’s franchise solicitors can prepare a standard franchise document that will ensure that your franchise is protected, including protection in key areas such as intellectual property and the business model itself.

Whilst under the same franchise agreement, each franchise business will be different. At Birkett Long, we have significant experience in preparing bespoke agreements working with franchisors and their advisors.

Our franchise solicitors have significant experience in what is a specialist area. If you would like advice or assistance, please do not hesitate to contact the team.
