Clear Advice for Franchise Investors
Franchise opportunities are everywhere, but how you go about making a choice and proceeding is as important as what type of franchise you choose to invest in. The amount of liquid capital needed typically ranges from $25,000 to half a million dollars, so our advice is to get good advice from an experienced franchise law attorney. At Zimmerman & Steber Legal Group of Delafield, Wisconsin, Attorney Neil Wojtal has more than 30 years of experience in franchising. He can guide franchisees through the process of investing in and operating a franchise business.

How We Can Help
While many clients are looking to get into a new business venture, others are interested in buying an existing franchise business — that is, purchasing a franchise from another franchisee. In either case, there are many legal issues to consider. As your lawyers, we know what to look for and can help you understand all of the provisions contained in a franchise agreement. We can advise franchisees about:
- Establishing a business entity
- Due diligence
- Sale and transfer restrictions
- Negotiation or review of disclosure documents and franchise agreements
- License agreements
- Franchisor obligations regarding advertising and rebates
- Dispute resolution via mediation, arbitration or litigation
In addition to providing legal guidance at the beginning of the process, we are able to advise you about other business law issues with which you may need help, including business succession and exit strategies. Our goal is to help you start your business, build it and achieve a comfortable retirement. The lawyers and entire staff at Zimmerman & Steber Legal Group are available to answer your questions and provide you with accessible and affordable legal advice.
