California Franchise Laws
California implements a comprehensive, strict regulatory framework for franchises, operating as a “registration state.”
With that in mind, make sure you find California Franchise Attorneys to hire. Let’s continue.
Franchisors must register their Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD) with the California Department of Financial Protection and Innovation (DFPI) under the California Franchise Investment Law (CFIL) before offering or selling a franchise. This ensures prospective franchisees receive crucial information for informed decisions.
The CFIL prevents fraud and misrepresentation in franchise sales. It exceeds the federal FTC Franchise Rule, requiring state-specific disclosures and often imposing additional substantive FDD requirements. Franchisors must obtain effective DFPI registration before any franchise sales activities.
Additionally, the California Franchise Relations Act (CFRA) governs ongoing franchisor-franchisee relationships.
The CFRA provides significant franchisee protections regarding termination, non-renewal, and transfer. It generally requires “good cause” for termination or non-renewal, with specific notice and cure periods, and addresses issues like encroachment.
