International Franchising Lawyers

Representing Clients in International Franchising Matters

Einbinder & Dunn's experienced approach in matters of international franchising has been developed through decades of practice serving franchisors and franchisees alike, and through collaboration with attorneys from around the globe. This, in turn, has given the firm a depth of knowledge and perspective on international franchising not found at most franchise law firms — one that has enabled its attorneys to see, plan and take next steps based upon a broader understanding of franchise systems.

Einbinder & Dunn offers guidance and a full range of quality, cost-effective legal services to start-up and established foreign franchisors seeking to sell franchise opportunities and establish operations in the United States. The firm also provides comprehensive services to U.S.-based franchisors seeking to sell franchises in Canada and other foreign countries. Last but not least, Einbinder & Dunn also serves U.S. franchisees of foreign-based franchisors.

Some of the many different aspects of international franchising that Einbinder & Dunn offers assistance with include:

  • Sale and purchase of international franchises in the United States and advice on proper due diligence
  • Assist clients in complying with international laws relating to franchising outside of the United States
  • Real estate matters, including property acquisition, lease and sublease preparation and drafting agreements with third parties with or without relation to the franchise system
  • Negotiation, drafting and review of third-party agreements, including contracts with independent contractors, supply agreements, and employment confidentiality and non-compete agreements
  • The development of the optimal corporate structure for enabling the franchisor and its affiliates to separate their various streams of revenue from one another, thereby shielding valuable assets from possible litigation
  • Litigation in state and federal courts
  • Resolution of disputes in various arbitration and mediation venues
  • Day-to-day business counseling
