What type of assistance do you offer me as a franchisee or franchisor?

Franchise law is a specialized field that requires expertise and knowledge of federal regulations, state franchise and business opportunity laws and franchise industry standards.  At Sibert Law we work with clients as they purchase single or multiple unit franchises, master franchises, or area development rights.  

As an experienced franchise law firm, Sibert Law will help you evaluate and analyze each franchise opportunity and understand your rights as a prospective franchisee.  We offer highly talented and experienced counsel to represent franchisees in every step of the due diligence process – purchasing a franchise, negotiating a franchise agreement, franchise system disputes and navigating a franchise sale or termination.  We also service existing franchisors with annual registrations, contract issues, and revising the franchise agreement, and have worked with  companies that want to expand their business through franchising. 

Why do you primarily work with entrepreneurs with small/medium sized businesses?

At Sibert Law we heard the complaints of many business owners about the lack of qualified, affordable options when faced with legal questions or issues.  Our response was to create a legal practice that offers competent legal assistance at reasonable rates.  At Sibert Law, we understand that each business is as unique as the owner itself.  A large part of our success and continued growth is from understanding each client’s individual needs, and then tailoring our legal services to satisfy those needs.  

What type of value can you offer my business?

Although some law firms attempt to complicate matters, at Sibert Law we keep things simple.  While other firms are solely focused on the bottom line, we are committed to building long-term relationships with our clients.  One of the basic ways that we offer value is by offering flat rate services or by combining related services into “packages” or “projects” in order to maximize your dollars.  We understand that your business is your top priority, and we work to help it succeed.
