The Legal Aspects of the Franchise Relationship

Global Journal of Management and Business Research September 26, 2013

In Part II of our study, the authors deal with the myriad of legal issues that pervade the franchise relationship. Of particular interest are the differences between the sale of a franchise and the sale of a security; an analysis of the elements of the critical Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD); a detailed look at the franchise contract; some “special protections” available to automobile dealers and petroleum dealers in the United States; and the relationship between franchising and U.S. antitrust law (which provides a fertile area of litigation between franchisors and franchisees). The purpose of Part II is to inform the franchisee about the issues that will require professional attention by a competent and well-versed franchise contract advisor and legal expert.
