Franchise and Distribution
Many of LMC’s clients have franchise locations throughout the country and often, legal matters will arise from the operation of these franchise locations, causing the client to become embroiled in a lawsuit for which it bears no responsibility. In those situations, LMC tenders the claim to the franchisee and/or other third party bearing responsibility for the incident on behalf of the client. After successful tender of the lawsuit, LMC focuses its efforts on getting the client dismissed from the litigation altogether – either by a voluntary dismissal by Plaintiff’s counsel or via a Motion for Summary Judgment prepared by the franchisee/third party’s counsel at the franchisee/third party’s expense.
