Legal workshop Turnover forecasts at Ludwig & Van Dam
Legal workshop November 26
How do you ensure a prognosis that is claim-proof? Many franchise disputes revolve around issued sales forecasts. Recent rulings show a shift in forecasting issues to the detriment of franchisors.
Franchisors want to avoid lawsuits. A great deal of damage can be prevented by correctly responding to recent developments. This may require an update of your franchise agreement.
On Thursday 26 November we organize in collaboration with the Dutch Franchise Association the legal workshop Turnover Forecasts . In this interactive workshop, provisions related to forecasts in franchise agreements are discussed and tips are given on how to make a forecast claim-proof.
