What You Should Know About Your Franchisor Before Signing On
You are required to choose the right franchisor, if you want to succeed as a franchisee. For that, check out the brand-name of the franchisor as well as the litigation history of the franchise.
Steps Youll Encounter When Purchasing a Franchise Business
The franchise purchase process is a long-drawn affair. There are many steps and those steps make sure that only a genuine candidate end up buying a franchise.
Government Regulation of Franchises
In the United States, all franchisors must abide by the Federal Trade Commission's (FTC) Franchise Rule, which requires franchisors to prepare a disclosure document called the Uniform Franchise Offering Circular (UFOC ) / Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD) and give a copy of that document to prospective franchisees prior to their purchase of a franchise.
The Uniform Franchise Offering Circular
Just How Important is the UFOC? I started playing golf about 10 years ago and over time have come to love the game. Although technique is a large part of what drives many golfers back to the greens, golf also has a very specific set of rules that define the game and create an equal playing field. The rules spell out how to play, how to keep score and how to determine a winner.

Explaining the Differences Between the UFOC and the FDD
The new FTC rules have bought smiles in the face of the franchisors and franchisees alike. It has made giving earning claims easier for the franchisors while the franchisees are duly warned whether they have to compete against the franchisor or another franchisee within its demarcated territory.
Big Changes Coming in Franchise UFOC Meet the FDD
The UFOC is going to have a major change as per new FTC ruling and will be renamed as FDD. It has to be implemented by July this year. The changes include modification of the name of the items and major alterations in litigation history disclosure.
Evaluate Complaints Against Franchisors Before Signing The Agreement
While starting a franchise business, checking out the legal history of the franchisor is a must. Take the help of your franchise attorney to look into any sort of litigation, bankruptcy and out-of-court settlement the company may have experienced.

The More You Learn the More You Realize What You Dont Know
Sometimes we are so zealous to become successful that we forget about what is significant. The background for success should include some intrinsic values as well as monetary values. We should be aware of our culture and other cultures, our history and their history, and not live in what has been termed "a cultural vacuum." Someone once said that not knowing history was like being a leaf that didn't know it was part of a tree. That's an interesting visual and it applies to many people. We are individually responsible for our education, and that means whether you're in school or not.

The Effect of Litigation on the Mobile Home Park Business
One of the biggest news stories emerging from the embattled mobile home manufacturing and sales side of the industry is the current and proposed litigation concerning formaldehyde contamination in mobile homes. As you may or may not be aware, formaldehyde is used in the creation of the products that are used to build a mobile home, such as wood products, I believe. Recently, there have been some studies that may suggest the level of formaldehyde in some homes may exceed the safe level. But my question is what the worst-case scenario might be from litigation regarding formaldehyde, as it affects mobile home park ownership and operations.
Defeating a Motion to Dismiss a Franchise Case in Federal Court
A motion to dismiss a complaint in federal court is a relatively inexpensive method to terminate litigation against a defendant. It has the advantage of not revealing the strategy of the defendant’s case while putting the plaintiff in the position of losing his case at the very beginning of litigation. If the defendant loses his motion to dismiss the complaint, he has lost virtually nothing, while the loss of the motion by the plaintiff is devastating. While a motion to dismiss the case can be appealed, the better course of action is to prevail at the district court level. Therefore, a plaintiff must make all possible efforts to defeat this motion.
Original Footage Vs. Digital Video Copies
As a video forensic expert, I want to examine original video when it is submitted as evidence in litigation. When anyone makes a copy, they have the discretion to copy only the video they feel is relevant instead of all the video recorded regarding the events that actually took place. It is crucial to preserve the original footage’s multiple views of the incident in case of necessary forensic examination. If I can prove scientifically that the original footage-needed to view the facts as they originally occurred-has been intentionally deleted, then I have served a purpose in that litigation.
