Case studies

We have successfully extracted many clients from their franchise agreements on the basis of misrepresentation. In a number of cases we have secured the return of the franchise fee and damages ranging from £7,000 to over £200,000.

We have also successfully secured payment of £150,000 for one of her franchisee clients who was in dispute with their franchisor regarding the franchisor’s obligations.

We have saved many franchisees ongoing franchise fees of anything from £20,000 to over £100,000 by assisting them in negotiating an exit from their franchise agreement.
