Finally, our seasoned franchise attorney and franchise expert, Kevin B. Murphy, known in the industry as Mr. Franchise is a San Francisco franchise attorney lawyer who helps you avoid franchise lawsuits and the scars of franchise litigation by sharing the lessons learned over decades of franchise litigation experience. With over 25 years of experience as a San Francisco franchise attorney, franchise author, franchise expert, franchise instructor, and former franchise owner, Mr. Franchise provides franchise litigation advice in franchise disputes, franchise lawsuits and complex franchise litigation matters to franchise attorneys lawyers and litigation attorneys. Arbitrators in franchise arbitration cases have quoted his franchise expert opinions verbatim in their decisions. His knowledge of franchise relationships (he was a very successful franchise owner), franchise industry custom and practice, franchise standards of care, franchise offering circulars, franchise disclosure documents, franchise registrations procedures, franchise agreements, franchise earnings claims, franchise profitability, franchise operations manuals, franchise law and more have helped many clients settle franchise disputes and avoid the scars of franchise litigation and franchise attorneys lawyers. As a noted franchise attorney, he also teaches franchise law, franchising vs. licensing (franchise vs. license), how to franchise a business, preparing to franchise, protecting intellectual property assets and avoiding franchise litigation to California franchise lawyers attorneys and franchise executives. Having a franchise attorney teach other franchise attorneys is a best practice way of learning franchise industry customs and practices, franchise standards of care and franchise litigation trends. Franchise executives also benefit from instruction by a franchise attorney because they learn, from a franchise expert and franchise attorney perspective, where the bullets in franchise litigation come from. Another benefit of franchise attorney instruction is a knowledgeable commentary on franchise legal issues, including franchise offering circulars, franchise disclosure documents and whether franchise disclosure standards are satisfied. A franchise attorney can also provide advice on whether a franchise earnings claim was made and if franchise offering circular requirements are satisfied. Almost most franchise attorneys are not franchise experts in franchise profitability issues, a franchise attorney with an MBA, like Mr. Franchise, can opine on franchise profitability issues. If a disgruntled franchise owner was not given proper franchise disclosures as required by their franchise registration state, a franchise attorney can research state-specific franchise registration requirements and orders to see if all franchise regulatory requirements and franchise registration orders are satisfied. Having a franchise expert review and opine on what the franchise attorney discovered can add significantly to the strength of the franchise litigation case, franchise lawsuit or franchise arbitration matter. In the area of franchise operations manuals, most franchise attorneys have never written one. So normally their role is simply adding the franchise operations manual table of contents to the list of exhibits in franchise offering circulars. But a franchise attorney with an MBA, like Mr. Franchise, has drafted and reviewed hundreds of franchise operations manuals and can provide business and legal advice in how to write a franchise operations manual as well as how to minimize potential franchise liability and avoid franchise litigation and franchise lawsuits.
