                                                Franchises

                                                People across the U.S. know the names of many companies that have become successful and widespread through franchising. Fast food restaurants, motels and hotels, real estate firms and other organizations provide glowing examples of franchises that have brought benefits to the franchisor and franchisee, alike.

                                                About Franchising

                                                Both federal and state laws apply to franchising, making it a complex process requiring attention to detail.

                                                The Federal Trade Commission’s requirements include a detailed disclosure document that franchisors must provide. Complete details on the regulations can be found at http://business.ftc.gov/selected-industries/franchises-and-business-opportunities

                                                A number of states, New York among them, have additional requirements about disclosure. A New York franchise law attorney can provide you with complete details about both state and federal regulations that relate to franchises.

                                                If you are a franchisor seeking to structure franchise opportunities or a franchisee who needs help navigating the legal, tax, and other requirements of acquiring a franchise, you’ll find the help you need at the Law Offices of Ira S.

                                                Franchising has become popular for a number of reasons, including its use as a financing tool and as a distribution method. For the franchisor, it is a particularly appealing way to expand the business without having to give up ownership.
