Franchise Law

FRANCHISE LAW helping franchisees get on track


Generally, franchises are created to license business plans, trade dress and trade secrets in exchange for a license fee or royalty paid by the franchisee to the franchisor.


Are you a current franchisee or are you considering the purchase of a franchise?


Our attorneys not only educate our clients about their rights and obligations under existing franchising agreements, we also counsel prospective new franchisees or those looking to expand their empire regarding the pros and cons of purchasing a particular franchise through franchise agreement review. 

Is your business already in the weeds?


Edmund Gegan also has a wealth of experience litigating franchise disputes, representing both the franchisor side, and franchisees. For franchisees defending against a suit by their franchisor, a careful review of the franchise agreement and Franchise Disclosure Document is necessary, as improper disclosures or breaches in franchisor performance may provide a franchisee with various defenses.


In a perfect world, our clients go on to become successful business operators, but even the best laid plans often go awry, and the Gegan Law Office will be there to assist with alternative dispute resolutions like mediation or arbitration, or if necessary, business litigation in Federal or State Court.
