Regulatory Compliance
We assist franchisors in complying with the obligations under the FTC Rule and applicable state laws governing the sale of franchises in those states which have registration statutes.
In the ordinary course, we draft franchise agreements and uniform franchise offering circulars for flat fees, which are payable over the course of the engagement. By using predictable flat fees, businesses can more effectively budget the funds necessary to roll out a franchise concept.
For established franchisors, we review existing franchise documents for regulatory compliance and other business or operational issues, and provide detailed comments or revisions with respect to existing documents.
For many clients, we perform national and state-specific registrations of their franchise programs. For these projects, we negotiate a flat fee based on filing status (initial or renewal), and the particular states in which the opportunity will be registered. We have a four-person registration and disclosure team lead by two attorneys who see to the timely updating and submission of registration documents. In addition, we also prepare and file Salesmen Disclosure Forms and Broker Registration Forms as necessary. We also prepare documents which are compliant for use in Canada in both the provinces of Alberta and Ontario.
