Designed as a working tool for both corporate franchise lawyers and outside counsel, Franchise Law Compliance Manual is a practical, comprehensive guide to establishing and maintaining a successful corporate compliance program. From intellectual property to termination, this updated and expanded guide covers every aspect of franchise law and will help you protect the franchisor's property, limit liability, and prepare for and limit the inevitable tensions of a franchise system.
To ensure complete, well-rounded coverage of the topics, each chapter of this fully revised Second Edition was prepared by two attorneys--one an in-house corporate counsel, and the other an outside counsel to franchisors. The same pattern was chosen in selecting the Manual's editors. The result of these collaborative efforts: a manual unparalleled in scope and breadth of coverage of franchise law from a compliance perspective.
