Franchisee Protection and Legal Representation for Franchise Operators
If you are a franchisee or considering the purchase of a franchise, you want to make sure that you understand what your obligations, rights, and responsibilities are under the franchise agreement. Many franchisees are in an unequal bargaining position with franchisors and need the legal direction of experienced franchise and business lawyers. At Carter & Tani, we have over 30 years of experience in assisting franchisees in protecting their interests and their rights.
Do not invest in a franchise without the counsel of an experienced franchise attorney.

Owning a franchise is a significant investment of your resources which should be done with the support of professional franchise attorneys.
Our franchise law attorneys will scrutinize any restrictive economic terms, non-compete clauses, territory, and potential consequences of your termination to advise you how they may affect your future and your investment. We will provide you with the legal counsel and direction you need prior to purchase and fully explain your rights and responsibilities.
Whether you are an existing franchisee or considering the purchase of a franchise, you always want to be aware of your legal rights and take action to protect yourself as a franchisee. In your franchise agreement, you will want to be aware of certain restrictive terms in your contract and other clauses that will affect your rights. Our attorneys will assist you in your review of the Franchise Disclosure Document and your franchise agreement.
