Selling or acquiring a franchise? Lusthaus Law can help you negotiate and draft your leases and addenda to ensure that they address both conventional real estate business-related provisions and those specific to the franchise relationship.

For franchisors, Lusthaus Law reviews leases proposed by franchisees to confirm that they do not prevent compliance with the franchisor’s system standards. Lusthaus Law will also ensure that leases signed by franchisees will provide the franchisor with necessary opportunities to protect its brand and the goodwill which will developed at the location.

For Franchisees, in addition to helping business owners negotiate traditional real estate provisions, Lusthaus law can help you address various real estate issues pertinent to the franchise relationship including those relating to:

• exclusivity relationships;
• collateral assignment and contingent options;
• franchisor purchase options;
• franchisor step-in rights; and
• renewal rights

From start-up through acquisition and disposition, commercial business owners count on Lusthaus Law to represent them in providing general business services that include not only commercial real estate agreements but also initial corporation or LLC formation and the drafting of operating, shareholder and partnership agreements for ownership and management.
