Lawyers For Franchise Disputes
Kansas City Metro - Nationwide
When you are involved in a franchise dispute, the stakes can be very high. Often significant assets or even the success of your business may be in jeopardy. Working with an experienced attorney can be critical. Located in Kansas City and San Diego, our law firm — Stueve Siegel Hanson — is among very few firms nationwide who have extensive experience litigating franchise disputes on a contingency basis.
Our lawyers have experience representing both franchisees and franchisors in a wide variety of disputes arising under franchise agreements and state franchise statutes. We have sought and obtained injunctive relief, as well as compensatory damages, enforcing rights under these agreements and state statutes in both state and federal courts and in AAA arbitrations.
At Stueve Siegel Hanson, we have successfully brought claims on behalf of franchisees against some of the largest companies in the world including Robert Half International, a multi-billion dollar professional staffing firm; H&R Block, a multi-billon dollar tax preparation company; and 7-Eleven, Inc., a multi-million dollar convenience store owner and franchisor. We have won a $70 million dollar franchise dispute for a family owned franchisor before a Phoenix, Arizona AAA arbitrator.
We help our clients understand their rights and develop a multi-dimensional strategy of enforcement. Once clients have clarified their interests, we can guide them through often contentious and lengthy litigation. Our unique level of expertise allows us to feel comfortable taking many of these claims on a contingency basis, where we risk not recovering a fee at all unless our clients recover compensation first.
The Right Contingency
Stueve Siegel Hanson provides a unique advantage for clients experiencing a franchise dispute. We offer a results-based, contingency fee structure in business law matters. Since there are no fees unless you win, this arrangement means that legal action that might not otherwise be cost-effective now becomes possible.
