Franchise businesses account for almost half of all retail sales in Canada and the United States, as many businesses seek to reach and serve customers beyond their borders. Companies expanding their businesses through franchising face a variety of legal needs as they select partners, implement quality standards, and comply with regulations on both sides of the border.
As a full-service law firm with offices across North America, Dickinson Wright has extensive experience acting on behalf of clients in the franchise industry. Our franchise and distribution lawyers work with Canadian and American franchisors, franchisees, and distributors taking their systems across the border or overseas. We also assist foreign franchisors seeking to operate in Canada and the U.S.

Our franchise and distribution team would be pleased to meet with you for a free consultation to discuss any franchise matter requiring legal assistance.
