Many franchisees pay required advertising or marketing fees every week. In theory, those fees support brand-wide advertising, marketing programs, and customer development. But when franchisees cannot tell how the money is being spent, or when the franchisor refuses to provide meaningful information, a business issue can quickly become a legal dispute.

Buying a franchise is a big decision and should not be taken lightly. You should not let your excitement lead to the purchase too quickly

A franchise attorney has specific experience and knowledge to help the franchisee and franchisor determine the best outcome for them.
