Franchise systems in Canada have grown exponentially, and with much success in recent years. Today franchising is a profitable, well-tested and integrated business model in the Canadian economy. Whether you are establishing or expanding a franchise system in Canada or abroad, you need legal professionals that are active in the industry and fully understand the unique aspects of your business.
Fraser Milner Casgrain LLP provides legal counsel to franchisors throughout their development — both at the transactional level and when the need for litigation arises. Our lawyers have represented local, national and international franchise systems of all sizes, including many of the most important American systems with locations worldwide. In addition to specialized expertise in franchise law, our group also has vast experience in franchise-related areas such as corporate, commercial, real estate, employment, intellectual property, mergers & acquisitions, tax and competition law.
With leading lawyers in all of Canada's key business centres, and membership in Canadian, American and International Franchising Associations, FMC's Franchise Law Group is poised to help our clients build effective partnerships that are critical to their success.
We assist clients in all stages of establishing a successful franchise business — from company creation and registration, to obtaining and protecting intellectual property, to dispute resolution.
