Service Agreement - If your Limited Liability Partnership is a service business, you'll need a Service Agreement. ▲
The bedrock foundation of many service businesses is a customized written agreement entered into with its customers. Many franchises sold for tens of thousands of dollars are business formats revolving around a Service Agreement. The key with a Service Agreement is to make it work as a marketing tool offering the business services in the widest variety of formats to your customers. For example, a one-time use customer needs to be converted to a monthly, quarterly or annual type repeat customer. At Spiegel & Utrera we want to help you get, and keep, your customers while looking professional and at the same time maximizing each sale with a friendly service agreement. A Service Agreement starts at $367.95 up to $897.95 depending upon its complexity if ordered at the time of forming your Limited Liability Partnership. We will prepare a draft of your Service Agreement and deliver the draft by fax or email to you for your review. Once you have had an opportunity to review the Service Agreement we will meet over the telephone to discuss the various aspects of the draft Service Agreement. Thereafter, Spiegel & Utrera will make changes to the Service Agreement to finalize it. Once the Service agreement has been finalized and delivered to you, you should take it to your printer to be printed and padded so it will always look professional and non-negotiable.

Below are some of the most common items that new businesses need in order to be compliant with the state of Nevada and other services that you may find advantageous for your business.

Choosing a Name for Your Partnership ▲

Choosing a name for your Partnership should be a well thought our process. Generally, a Partnership name may be adopted if there is not the same as or too similar to an existing name on the state Partnership records.

When determining name availability, Spiegel & Utrera, P.A. checks names only against names of partnerships registered in the state you are attempting to form your Partnership (e.g., a proposed partnership name is checked for availability only against other like partnership names) and only with the state agency responsible for partnership formations.

Names are not checked against state or federal trademark or service mark registrations nor against state or local fictitious, assumed or alternate business name registrations.
Bank accounts, uniforms, menus, vehicle signage and other business signage, a website, business cards, stationery, etc. should not be ordered and no financial commitments should be made until you know the name is available from the State and Federal, State and Common Law Trademark searches you have completed.

Avoid the ramifications of selecting a partnership name that is already in use by another and possibly prevent:

Effectively Controlling Your Business Return to Menu

Voting Trust – Keeping Control of Your Corporation when there are Multiple Shareholders ▲
A voting trust is a device for combining the voting power of shareholders. It is not unlawful for shareholders to combine their voting stock for the election of directors so as to obtain or continue the control or management of a corporation. Nevada Statutes limit the duration of voting trusts to a period of ten years. In order to avoid the invalidation of a voting trust, the applicable statutes should be strictly complied with. There are various situations in which a voting trust agreement may be used. It may be used when several shareholders wish to vote their respective stock as a unit. It also may be used for the special purpose of protecting corporate creditors. The general plan of a voting trust is controlled by the voting trust agreement; then the shareholders endorse their stock certificates to the voting trustee. The voting trustee surrenders these certificates to the corporation and the voting trustee receives in return new certificates issued in the name of the voting trustee, and the voting trustee votes the shares as principal, rather than as agent as in the case of proxies. For tax purposes, the voting trust certificate takes the place of the stock it represents. Tax transactions with respect to voting trust certificates are treated as transaction affecting the stock. A voting trust is not an association taxable as a corporation, because in itself it is not an enterprise for the carrying on of business for profit. Used correctly, the Voting Trust could be a useful tool for your corporation. The charge for Spiegel and Utrera, P.A. to form a Voting Trust for your company is only $767.95 if ordered at the time of incorporation.

Stock Options – Control Your Corporation while Raising Money ▲
An option to buy stock gives the holder the exclusive right for a specified period of time to purchase stock at the price and under the terms and conditions specified in the agreement. Although the option grantor is bound by the option and generally cannot revoke it, the option holder is not bound unless he exercises the option. Options are regarded as capital assets if the underlying property constitutes, or if acquired would constitute, a capital asset in the hands of the holder. The receipt of consideration for the option is not taxable until the option either is exercised or has lapsed. If the option is exercised, the consideration is treated as part of the selling price and included in computing the gain or loss in the sale of the stock. Since stock is generally a capital asset, gain or loss on the sale would be entitled to capital treatment, either long-term or short-term. The holding period for qualification for long-term capital treatment is more than one year. The seller’s holding period for the stock sold includes the period during which the option is outstanding. Upon the failure of the option holder to exercise the option, if the consideration is forfeited, the option grantor generally realizes short-term capital gain, but income is not realized until the time of forfeiture. An option holder’s gain or loss upon a sale of the option, or loss upon a failure to exercise the option, would be entitled to capital gain treatment. The holding period of the option will determine whether long-term or short-term capital gain or loss is realized. For this purpose, if the loss is attributable to a failure to exercise the option, the option is deemed to have been sold on the day it expired. If the option is exercised, the consideration for the option is treated as part of the purchase price and is included in the option holder’s basis for the stock purchased. The purchaser’s holding period does not include the period curing which the option is outstanding.

Stock options can be utilized very effectively by an entrepreneur, for example:

The stock option can be an on-target management incentive or control device. Stock options can be used in employment agreements, consultants agreements, incentive agreements, as means of raising equity capital or borrowing funds. Spiegel and Utrera, P.A. will provide the Stock Option service for your business for only $367.95 if ordered at the time of incorporation.

Asset Protection / How to Protect Your Business Return to Menu

As a new entrepreneur, you are going to invest a lot of time and money into your business. It is imperative that you protect yourself and your business from anything that could go wrong. One of the keys to being a successful entrepreneur is proactively planning for the worst situation, not reacting to the situation after it has happened. Below are items imperative for the protection of you and your business.

Partner Indemnification Agreement and Covenant Not to Sue ▲
We strongly recommend that you include special provisions in your Certificate of Limited Liability Partnership and additional agreements which trigger this important protection requiring the Limited Liability Partnership to indemnify and hold harmless a Partner from any actions they take on behalf of the Limited Liability Partnership and to reimburse a Partner for start up costs. If the a Partner is ever sued for actions taken on behalf of the Limited Liability Partnership, these provisions require that the Limited Liability Partnership be held responsible. These important provisions and agreements cost only an additional $75 if ordered at the time of formation of your Limited Liability Partnership.

Partners Restrictive Agreement ▲
We strongly recommend you enter into a Partner Restrictive Agreement. This agreement is entered into by the Partners and the Limited Liability Partnership to enumerate and describe the rights and obligations of the Partners to each other and to the Limited Liability Partnership. More particularly, it affords a right of first refusal where in the event a Partner wants to transfer their partnership interest it requires approval and/or a buyout by the other limited partners.

A draft of this agreement will be prepared as part of our service, so you may review the Agreement, make changes and discuss it with one of our Attorneys. Please bear in mind that this Agreement is customized specifically for your Limited Liability Partnership. Normally, the fee to prepare such a comprehensive agreement of this nature would be $1,500 or more. However, your cost is only $249.95 if prepared in conjunction with the formation of your Limited Liability Partnership.

Partner Divorce Protection Provisions in the Partners Restrictive Agreement for Limited Liability Partnerships ▲
Unfortunately, many eager entrepreneurs anticipate a successful business venture but never contemplate the "down side." Of course, our Firm recommends that individuals protect themselves by having business entities as Partners in the Limited Liability Partnership to add an extra layer of limited liability protection, but what happens if a Partner is an individual that gets divorced? Will the Limited Liability Partnership interest remain with the Partner or get awarded to the spouse as part of the divorce settlement? What happens if Partner tries to convey or assign their Limited Liability Partnership interest to a spouse or former spouse to meet their obligations? A carefully drafted provision in the Partners restrictive agreement should afford a right of first refusal when a Partner wants to transfer their Limited Liability Partnership interest by requiring a buyout of the Limited Liability Partnership interest by the other Partners. Such a provision will protect the current Partners from potential ownership by divorced spouses or other possible sources of ownership conflict. For example, assume a Limited Liability Partnership set up by husband John Smith, wife Pocahontas Smith, and son Al Smith. All are Partners, and son Al is married to Patti Smith. What happens if Al and Patti Smith file for a divorce? Provisions in the Partners Restrictive Agreement require that in the event of the filing of a divorce involving a Partner of the Limited Liability Partnership, a notice is sent to the other Partners offering them a right of first refusal, which allow them to purchase Al Smith's Limited Liability Partnership interest to avoid having Patti Smith as a Partner, especially after a nasty divorce. Furthermore, even if none of the Partners want to buy the Limited Liability Partnership interest at issue, any transfer of Limited Liability Partnership interest would require unanimous consent of the other Partners. Let us draft these special provisions to protect your partnership from divorce for an extra $75 when ordered with the Partners Restrictive Agreement at the time of formation or $150 thereafter.  

Avoid Probate – Provide for the Disposition of the Ownership of your Partnership Upon Your Death ▲
Let Spiegel & Utrera, P.A. create an Ownership Trust while your Partnership is in the process of being formed.

The Ownership Trust is relatively inexpensive to form, $350 if ordered at the time of establishing your Partnership. If not ordered at the time of forming your Partnership, the Ownership Trust is $749.95

What You Need if You are Hiring Workers Return to Menu

If you are planning to have anyone work for your company, whether as an employee or independent contractor, you must make sure that you are in compliance with all Federal and Nevada laws. Below are the most common items that you will require when hiring workers for your company.

Nevada Unemployment Tax Registration – Required By Law if you are Hiring Employees ▲
This is used to withhold Nevada Unemployment Taxes from your Limited Liability Partnership's payroll. Generally, any employer who pays wages of $225 or more during any calendar quarter for services performed in Nevada must register and pay unemployment taxes on those wages.  If you have any employees on the payroll, including yourself, you will need to register. We can initiate the paperwork for this registration for you and deliver it with the Limited Liability Partnership. The cost at the time of forming your Limited Liability Partnership is only $35.

Employment Agreement - Get the Most Out of Your Employees ▲
If you are using employees in your business, it is important to have a written Employment Agreement to document the conditions of Employment. An Employment Agreement can be very advantageous for a business and should be required for all employees, whether new or existing. It creates a clear understanding of the arrangement between the employee and the Limited Liability Partnership and provides protection for the business. The Employment Agreement also contains other important provisions:

The Employment Agreement is prepared in such a way that you can use it over and over again to avoid additional costs in the future. By having this Employment Agreement, the Limited Liability Partnership is given substantial clout in preventing an employee from joining a competitor, or competing against the Limited Liability Partnership and disclosing business secrets to anyone. The Agreement may be re-used by the Limited Liability Partnership as it hires additional employees, the cost of the Employment Agreement is just $150.

Employee Manual
When you hire employees in your business, it is important to have an Employee Manual to comprehensively spell out the policies of your business. Included within the Employee Manual are such topics as “Employment at Will”, Disability, Harassment and Discrimination, Standards of Conduct and the various rules relating thereto, Corrective Action and Termination, Wage and Salary Policies and Employee Communications. For a list of the Table of Contents of the Employee Manual, click here. The Employee Manual is intended to be a source document used at the business and would be updated by the business from time to time based upon its experiences with various situations. The preparation of the Employee Manual for your business costs only an additional $349.95 when ordered with the formation of your partnership and initially comes to you for review so you may have an opportunity to make any revisions before the Employee Manual is finalized by Spiegel & Utrera, P.A. and delivered to you electronically so you may print it as needed from time to time.

Employee Benefits and Policies – Protect Yourself From Employee Disputes with a Comprehensive Policy ▲
If you are using employees in your business, it is important to have written Benefits and Policies. Let us prepare your Employee Benefits and Policies. Unlike the Employment Agreement, the Employee Benefits and Policies creates an understanding of the entitlements of the employee relative to the policies of the business and provides protection for the business. The Employee Benefits and Policies will be customized for your business and are designed to cover:

By having the customized Employee Benefits and Policies, the business has clearly communicated to its employees the Employee Benefits and Policies in effect at the business and how the Employee Benefits and Policies are to be followed so that there are no surprises. For example, relating to an employee who leaves the business without giving adequate notice who then would only be entitled to be paid at the minimum wage for any time due and owing and forfeiting any vacation days, sick days, commissions, incentive compensation and/or bonuses.

The Employee Benefits and Policies may be re-used by the business as it hires additional employees. The cost of the Employee Benefits and Policies is just $167.95 if ordered now with the formation of your company.

Employee Warning Notice ▲
Using an Employee Warning Notice can be a very effective management tool. Usually it is cumbersome to discipline an employee, situations do not always resolve themselves and frequently result in a verbal warning, however, if the situation repeats itself, this may call for a written Employee Warning Notice. The notice is designed to give a clear explanation of the issues involved which may cover a multitude of situations such as:

Employee Warning Notice form is customized with the name of your business and, if ordered at the time of formation of your partnership, is just $49.95.

Nevada New Hire Reporting ▲
Federal law requires all Nevada employers to report basic information about employees, who are newly hired, rehired, or who return to work after a separation from employment. You must submit a report for each newly hired employee. Failure to report new hires within 20 days of their hire date may result in civil penalties.  We can provide you with a package of 6 New Hire Registration Forms for $35. The forms are customized with your Limited Liability Partnership's information, and you may re-use them for each person you employ.
Independent Contractor Agreement - What Your Business Must Have if Using Independent Contractors ▲
There are many reasons for using Independent Contractors, however, simply verbally stating that a worker is an Independent Contractor is not enough according to the IRS. Certain criteria must be met. The IRS considers 11 factors in three specified areas: Behavioral Control, Financial Control and Type of Relationship. So, before you engage the services of an Independent Contractor, it is essential that you document that relationship with a written Independent Contractor's Agreement, otherwise the IRS could hold your Limited Liability Partnership and you personally liable for the Independent Contractor's Income Tax, Social Security, Medicare Tax and Federal Unemployment Tax, which should have been withheld. As a signatory on the check used to pay the Independent Contractor, you could be held personally liable for these taxes. The Independent Contractor's Agreement also contains other important provisions:

We can provide an Independent Contractor's Agreement that covers all the legal requirements and many business advantages for your Registered Limited Liability Partnership for only $150 if ordered at the time of formation of your Limited Liability Partnership.

Sexual Harassment Prevention Policy ▲
If you are using employees in your business or if your business has customers it is important to have written Sexual Harassment Prevention Policy. In order to protect your business from liability for such sexual harassment claims, Spiegel & Utrera, P.A. recommends that your business adopt a written sexual-harassment prevention policy and distribute it to employees. The policy will include:

By having a customized Sexual Harassment Prevention Policy, your business has clearly communicated to its employees that your business will not tolerate Sexual Harassment by employees to other employees and your customers. The cost of your customized Sexual Harassment Prevention Policy is just $349.95 if ordered now with the formation of your company.

Start-Up Money for Your Business Return to Menu

Finding the money necessary to start your business is challenging. Unfortunately many new entrepreneurs don’t know how to find this money. Even worse, when they find money they don’t know how to properly document the transaction. Don’t let this happen to you. Review the options below on How To properly secure and document money for your business.

Non-Voting Limited Liability Partnership Interest ▲
Allowing differences in voting rights is particularly advantageous to entrepreneurs who need to attract additional capital, but who also want to retain voting control over their partnership. For example, as a founding partner of the partnership, you may want to have all of the voting partnership interest so as to control its operations, while transferring all of the non-voting partnership interests to others so that they may share in the appreciation value and earnings of the partnership. Seasoned business-owners will instinctually recognize the value of such an agreement. We'll draft a special provision for your Articles of Partnership. This item costs only an additional $74.95 if ordered at the time of formation. In addition, you may want to protect yourself with a Partner Restrictive Agreement.
Lender's Agreement & Promissory Note - Properly Document Money Lent to the Business ▲
Initially a Limited Liability Partnership needs a cash infusion. Additionally, the Limited Liability Partnership may require a continuing advance of funds for some time. It's important to minimize the amount of money a Partner is required to pay for the Limited Liability Partnership in the Limited Liability Partnership because the Partners could be held personally liable by the Limited Liability Partnership and/or the creditors of the Limited Liability Partnership for not contributing all the funds the Partners had initially agreed to contribute to the Limited Liability Partnership. How does the Limited Liability Partnership get the money? After the initial purchase of its Limited Liability Partnership interests, generally, the Limited Liability Partnership has two choices for obtaining additional money: (1) Partners can contribute additional funds for their Limited Liability Partnership interest (not the preferred method as previously stated) or (2) loan money to the Limited Liability Partnership. Lending money to the Limited Liability Partnership is the preferred method to advance money to the Limited Liability Partnership because the lender is seen as a creditor of the Limited Liability Partnership. The lending of money to the Limited Liability Partnership is accomplished with a Lender's Agreement and a Promissory Note. Both of these instruments together provide for an initial amount of a loan to the Limited Liability Partnership and also provide for future advances of money the lender might make to the Limited Liability Partnership. In the event of failure of the business, the loan will be fully tax deductible by the lender as a bad debt. The fee for the Lender's Agreement and Promissory Note, if ordered at the time of the formation of your Limited Liability Partnership, is only $75.

Security Agreement for Limited Liability Partnership - Protect Yourself if you Personally Funded the Loan for the Business ▲
Once you have decided to use the Spiegel & Utrera, P.A., Lenders Agreement and Promissory Note, the next step is to collateralize the personal property assets of the Limited Liability Partnership in favor of you, the lender, with a Security Agreement. A Security Agreement is a contract between a lender and borrower. The Security Agreement gives the lender a security interest and the right to repossess personal property that a borrower has offered as collateral if a note is not paid per its agreed terms. This right is superior to all subsequent creditors provided the lien given by the Security Agreement is perfected. The Security Agreement available from Spiegel & Utrera, P.A. is complete and includes provisions relating to type of collateral being secured, address where collateral will be kept, executing further documents, events that shall constitute a default, assignment of secured collateral by holder, a listing of events that would constitute default by the borrower and the rights of the lender should the borrower default. Provided you have ordered the Spiegel & Utrera, P.A., Lenders Agreement and Promissory Note, the fee for the Security Agreement, if ordered at the time of forming your Limited Liability Partnership, is an additional $75.

Perfecting the Lien Created by the Security Agreement - Uniform Commercial Code ▲
Liens against personal property are perfected differently than liens on real property. The use of the phrase "personal property" does not mean property owned personally by the owner of a business. Instead, the term refers to all property used inside or outside of a business (with the exception of real property) including equipment, furniture, inventory, etc. To perfect a lien against personal property used in a business, strict adherence must be followed pursuant to the Uniform Commercial Code, documentation must be created, executed and filed with the appropriate government agencies. Once recorded, the Uniform Commercial Code makes a lien valid and serves as notice that the lien exists. Usually, the first recorded lien takes priority. Provided you have ordered the Spiegel & Utrera, P.A. Lenders Agreement and Promissory Note and the Spiegel & Utrera, P.A. Security Agreement, the documentation required to perfect the lien under the Uniform Commercial Code is $75, if ordered at the time of forming your Limited Liability Partnership.

How To Build Credit and Credibility for Your Business Return to Menu

As a new business two items vital to your survival are credit and credibility. Customers feel secure dealing with a credible business. Potential investors and other lenders are more comfortable providing capital to a business with good credit. But how do you build credit and credibility for a business? Even more importantly, how can you build credit for your business if your personal credit is not spotless? Two of the easiest ways are discussed below.

System for Award Management (SAM) Number  ▲

At Spiegel & Utrera, P.A. we can help you register to do business with the US government. To complete your SAM Registration, you must first have a D&B Number and a Federal Tax Identification Number. If ordered at the time of forming your Partnership, the fee for your System for Award Management (SAM) Registration is $249.95.

D & B Number - Start Building Your Business Credit Immediately ▲
According to Dun & Bradstreet, the D & B number is widely used by both commercial and federal entities and was adopted as the standard business identifier for federal electronic commerce as early as October 1994. The D & B number was also incorporated in the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) in April 1998 as the United States Federal Government’s contractor identification code for all procurement-related activities. The D & B number is also known as the D-U-N-S® number and remains with the partnership location to which is has been assigned even if it closes or goes out of business. With that in mind, it is important to have a physical location for your business when obtaining the D & B number. D & B also states that the D-U-N-S® number also “unlocks” a wealth of valued-added data associated with that entity, including the business name, physical and mailing addresses, trade styles (fictitious name, assumed name, alternate name or DBA), principal names, financial, payment experiences, industry classifications (SICs [Standard Industry Classification] and NAICS [North American Industry Classification System]), socio-economic status, government data and more. The D-U-N-S® number also links members of corporate family trees worldwide. If ordered at the time of forming your partnership, Spiegel & Utrera, P.A. will obtain your D & B number, also known as your D-U-N-S® number, for $50. If ordered later, the charge to obtain the D & B number, also known as your D-U-N-S® number, is $75.

Our staff has many years of experience representing Tenants. Having your lease reviewed BEFORE you sign on the dotted line can save you thousands of dollars.

In our review we address issues such as:

Business Purchase Review: ▲
One thing is very clear - the acquisition of a business can provide the gateway to substantial wealth. At Spiegel & Utrera, P.A. , we have represented buyers in many business acquisitions and are ready to help you. For small to medium businesses, purchases are usually structured in one of two ways: Asset Purchase or Corporate Stock Purchase.

Asset Purchase – Generally Liabilities are NOT Assumed ▲
When assets are acquired, the purchaser buys all or specified assets of the selling entity and may assume none, some, or all of the liabilities of the business. An asset purchase may be more attractive to you since you may be able to pick and choose the specific items desired and can attempt to avoid assuming debts and liabilities of the selling entity. An asset acquisition is also designed to reduce your exposure to possible unknown or contingent liabilities. When assets are acquired, appropriate documents must be prepared in order to effectuate the transfer of title to each particular asset which is being transferred. This can involve a great deal of paper work and may require approvals and consents from various other parties, depending on the entity which is being purchased. We recommend faxing any agreement BEFORE you sign to (800) 520-7800, at no obligation to you, and an attorney can advise you over the phone.

Corporate Stock Purchase – When the longevity and corporate status of the entity are Valuable ▲
You can acquire control of another company through the acquisition of the shares of stock owned by the seller's shareholders. In this type of acquisition control of the acquired entity is obtained through stock ownership rather than a direct acquisition of the assets. With a corporate stock purchase corporate liabilities are assumed by the buyer. The legal and corporate status of the acquired entity remains the same following the acquisition. If possible, an Asset Purchase is usually preferable for a buyer due to the assumed liability. However some purchases may benefit from the acquisition of corporate stock. For example, where beneficial carryover tax attributes are available, a stock transaction may be desirable for you. When favorable insurance and employment ratings can be retained, they may also be a consideration for a stock transaction. Although one of the main nontax considerations for you in desiring an asset purchase is the risk of being saddled with unknown and contingent liabilities, the impact of this problem can sometimes be ameliorated by the establishment of holdback arrangements. Such arrangements typically involve escrowing of funds, rights to offset payments on seller financed promissory notes, execution of nonnegotiable promissory notes to evidence seller financing, and provisions in the sale agreement in delaying the payment of the full purchase price until certain contingencies have been satisfied.

In a typical stock acquisition the purchaser acquires the stock from the corporate shareholders in exchange for cash, notes, stock, other property, or a combination of these items. In most cases you will want to purchase the entire outstanding stock of the seller; however, there may be situations where it would be advantageous to have a minority shareholder retain an interest in the corporation being sold. For example, if a key management figure has an ownership interest in the corporation, it may be beneficial for the corporation for him to retain that interest in order to maintain continuity of management and the value of a key employee. The psychological and economic advantages of having an important employee continue to own a stake of the business, even after new ownership of the majority of stock, should be carefully weighed.

Simplicity is perhaps the key nontax feature of a stock acquisition. Since nothing other than corporate stock of the corporation is transferred, the often cumbersome preparation and execution of documents of transfer are not necessary. Although the selling shareholders must agree to sell their corporate stock, no shareholder votes are necessary, nor are there any shareholders' dissenters' or appraisal rights. The sale of corporate stock will normally avoid sales taxes, although Nevada does impose a tax on the transfer of stock.

It must be emphasized that the mechanical ease of accomplishing the actual corporate stock transfer should not lull you into believing that an investigation into the corporation is not necessary. To the contrary, the investigation should be at least as, if not more, comprehensive than one undertaken in the course of an asset transaction. It is perhaps most crucial in regard to liabilities, since you face the risk imposed by disclosed, undisclosed, fixed, contingent, and unknown liabilities. Although you do not assume such liabilities personally, they nonetheless run with the corporation and will affect the assets of the business. The degree and extent of the risk associated with the transaction, and the likelihood of liabilities which have not surfaced, should have a direct bearing on the negotiated purchase price. We strongly recommend that you fax your purchase agreement, at no obligation to you, to (800) 520-7800 BEFORE you sign it and one of Spiegel And Utrera, P.A.’s experienced attorneys will be able to advise you over the phone.

Franchise Agreement Review – Is That Franchise Too Good to be True? ▲
A franchise is a method of distributing goods and services by licensing a business idea or concept to another. The "franchisor" is the legal owner of the franchised business' concepts and ideas, including names and logos. The "franchisee" is the individual or entity that purchases the right to use these concepts and ideas from the Franchisor. Studies reveal that franchised businesses experience lower default rates than independent businesses and generally have a somewhat easier time securing financing because the Franchisor typically has an established trademark and goodwill, as well as marketplace experience. But is a franchise worth the cost and restrictions? Many new entrepreneurs incorrectly believe that purchasing a franchise will lead to immediate success and profits with little to no risk. This is rarely the case. When considering a franchise there are many aspects that you need to examine. One good indicator of the potential success of a franchise is to compare your start-up cost with the past advertising and promotional expenditures of the franchisor. For example, a fast food franchise that has a start-up cost of $50,000 where the franchisor has invested $500 million in advertising and promotion would probably be a better purchase than another fast food franchise that has a lower start-up cost but the franchisor has only invested $10 million in advertising and promotion. Likewise, remember that higher price does not necessarily mean less risk and lower price does not mean greater potential reward. You must review all materials and disclosures carefully and seek legal advice. Although franchises usually require up-front fees and are heavily regulated by Federal and state agencies because of their inherent risks, a franchisee operating under one trademark can achieve levels of brand awareness, market penetration and purchasing power that business people operating individually could not ordinarily achieve. Generally, a franchise agreement grants to the franchisee a limited license and right to use and operate a recognizable outlet within a defined territory by utilizing a pre-existing business system and proprietary marks. The franchise agreement allows the franchisor to carefully control the obligations and responsibilities of the franchisee. It is imperative to have the agreement reviewed by an attorney BEFORE you sign it. The attorneys of Spiegel and Utrera, P.A. have extensive experience in Franchise Agreements and will review your Franchise Agreement. Just fax your agreement to (800) 520-7800, at no obligation to you, and an attorney can advise you over the phone.

In our review we address issues such as:

A franchise is an excellent way to get started as a new entrepreneur, but it does not guarantee success. You must have a Franchise Agreement that works to your advantage. Let Spiegel and Utrera, P.A. review your agreement and get your franchise started on the path to success!
