DISPUTES ON THE GOLD COAST

Understanding your Franchise Challenges

Disputes between franchisors and franchisees can debilitate a business, impacting your operational focus and future growth. At Daniels Legal, we understand the unique pressures that arise when disagreements over franchise agreements surface. Whether you’ve been issued a Notice of Dispute, are facing a formal claim, or are a franchisee that needs help, our experienced team is here to provide clear, focused advice and representation.

Tailored Legal Support for Franchisors and Franchisees

Our experience in the franchise sector means we recognise that each dispute is unique, and our representation for franchisors is very different to our representation for franchisees. By helping you navigate the complexities of the Franchise Code of Conduct and related legislation, we allow you to concentrate on running your business knowing you have trusted lawyers focusing on your franchise dispute for you.

Strategic and Proactive Dispute Resolution

The rising number of franchise disputes in Australia has led to the development of a Code of Conduct, administered by the Australian Competition & Consumer Commission, designed to resolve issues quickly and cost-effectively. However, we know that not every issue can be resolved through this mechanism—sometimes mediation fails or is bypassed entirely. As franchise dispute lawyers, we know how to navigate the system and use the tools available to your advantage.

Navigating the Legal Landscape

In addition to the Franchise Code, franchisors and franchisees must also contend with obligations under various other pieces of legislation, including the Fair Work Act, the Australian Securities and Investments Act, Australia’s tax laws, Corporations Act and state and territory licensing schemes. Our holistic approach ensures that all relevant legal frameworks are considered, giving you an approach that looks at the big picture.
