Franchise Agreement Disputes
Franchise agreement disputes occur when the franchisor (the company granting the franchise) and the franchisee (the individual or entity buying the franchise) disagree on terms outlined in their contract. These disagreements can arise over issues like fees, performance standards, or termination conditions. Common causes include miscommunication, differing interpretations of the agreement, or unmet expectations. Resolving such disputes typically involves negotiation, mediation, or legal action, depending on the severity. Understanding the terms of the agreement and maintaining open communication can help prevent these conflicts from escalating.
