OUR 5 STAR GOOGLE REVIEWS SPEAK FOR THEMSELVES
Franchise problem solutions are exactly that! We had the misfortune of investing in two separate shockingly bad franchises in different sectors. We really had jumped out of the frying pan and into the fire! Until there is more protection from unscrupulous franchisors, then speak to this company before entering into any franchise agreement, or as soon as you identify any issues as a franchisee. They saved us from a lot of heartache, and financial ruin!

WE RESOLVE FRANCHISE DISPUTES IN YOUR FAVOUR
Your franchisor may appear to be in a strong position but this is seldom the case.
After over three decades of operating a nationwide franchised network and collectively nearly fifty years in the industry, some of which was as a franchisee, we know where franchisors are most vulnerable and how to expose bad practice.
Our advice will vary, depending on your desired outcome. You may want to recover your initial investment, be released from the franchise and start your own similar business. You may prefer to bring about a change in the behaviour of your franchisor and remain in the business.
Our initial discussion is completely free of charge, entirely confidential and without any obligation. Our charging rates are much less than those of solicitors and we usually achieve results more quickly.
If your objective is to improve your situation and remain with the franchise our non-legal approach is far less contentious.

Some franchises are excellent and their franchisees are profitable and contented, others are mediocre and a few are terrible. Many of the franchisees who are locked into these bad franchises are frustrated, unhappy and unprofitable.
The causes include miss-selling the franchise, bad management and unethical methods. This is stressful for both the franchisees and their families.
If you think that any of this applies to you we can almost certainly help to remedy the situation.

FIRSTLY, WHAT NOT TO DO
Don’t share your grievances with other franchisees.
We offer this advice because if a franchisor is faced with a number of disgruntled franchisees and a possible group legal action he, she or they will almost certainly seek legal advice. The opportunity to negotiate the best outcome may then be lost.
WHAT TO DO
Preserve the franchise prospectus, recruitment documentation, financial projections, advertisements and any notes that you made at the initial meeting.
Draw up a time-line of events from the point when you applied for the franchise until you became aware of the problem.
Contact us for an initial free consultation. There is almost certainly much that we can do to help you.
