News fromCourierPR · 2 min read
The Partnership of Mario L Herman and Gregory O Herman, a Washington, D.C.-based law firm specializing in franchise law, has announced its services in representing real estate franchise owners in office sales and transfers. According to the firm, real estate franchisees who wish to sell an office typically require the franchisor's written consent, and the sale process often involves additional clauses such as transfer fees, the franchisor's right to approve the buyer, and a condition that the buyer sign the franchisor's current form of agreement.
Mario L Herman, a partner at the firm, has lectured on franchising in Shanghai and San Jose, Costa Rica. He was also named the American Association of Franchisees and Dealers' Supporting Member of the Year for his work as chairman of its Amicus Committee. Gregory O Herman, who joined the practice as a law clerk and later became a partner, holds an LL.M. in International Business Law from the University of London.
The firm advises clients on franchise agreements, disclosure documents, business transfers, master franchise contracts, arbitration, and litigation. It assists clients in industries including real estate, restaurants, hotels, printing, and fitness, offering guidance on franchise sales, renewals, and disputes. The firm also provides free consultations for clients in the United States and abroad who are considering a planned sale or a master franchise contract.
For many owners, selling the office they have grown over the years is the biggest business decision they will make. The firm emphasizes the importance of early preparation, sitting down with owners well before a buyer appears, and going through what the agreement allows. This preparation, according to the firm, gives the owner more choices and a simpler closing process.
The firm's services extend beyond real estate to include food-service operators who need a restaurant franchise lawyer. It offers assistance with agreements, renewals, transfers, and disputes for clients in various industries. The firm also advises on master franchise contracts, reviewing the development schedule, sub-franchise documents, fees owed to the franchisor, and the franchisor's termination rights.
In a related development, the Washington, D.C. area continues to see a variety of services expanding their reach. For instance, Washington DC Laundry Service offers professional pickup and delivery laundry, wash and fold, dry cleaning, and commercial laundry services for residential and business customers throughout the city. Similarly, a 360 photo booth rental service is gaining popularity, providing dynamic slow-motion videos from every angle to entertain guests at various events.
Additionally, the release mentions a book titled "Truth Never Dies" (ISBN 1461064449) by Dr. William C. Chasey, which details his experience with the U.S. government's alleged abuse of state powers. The book is a candid account of his downfall and aims to present an honest account of what happened.
The Partnership of Mario L Herman and Gregory O Herman, with its expertise in franchise law, continues to serve a wide range of clients, ensuring that their business decisions are well-informed and legally sound.
