Florida Franchise Lawyer

Protecting Franchisors & Franchisees

Franchising can be a powerful way to grow a business, but it’s also highly regulated. BizLaw represents both franchisors and franchisees across Florida, helping clients understand and comply with complex franchise laws.

Franchise Services for Florida Business Owners

Our attorneys assist with every stage of the franchise process:

  • Franchise Disclosure Documents (FDDs): Reviewing and explaining key terms.

  • Franchise Agreements: Drafting, reviewing, and negotiating to protect your interests.

  • Compliance: Helping franchisors meet Florida and federal franchise requirements.

  • Expansion: Advising businesses on scaling into new markets.

Why Work With a Florida Franchise Lawyer?

Franchise law combines state and federal requirements. Without proper legal guidance, businesses risk:

  • Entering into unfair or one-sided agreements.

  • Failing to meet Florida franchise registration and compliance rules.

  • Facing disputes that could have been avoided with clearer contracts.

BizLaw has served Florida businesses since 1995, with experience in both franchise and corporate law.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a lawyer to review a Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD) in Florida?

Yes. The FDD is lengthy and complex, and a lawyer ensures you understand your rights and obligations before signing.

What’s the difference between a franchisor and a franchisee?

A franchisor grants rights to operate under their brand. A franchisee pays fees and agrees to follow the system. Both benefit from legal review of agreements.

Does Florida have special franchise laws?

Florida follows federal franchise regulations but also enforces its own business and contract laws that affect franchise operations.
