Franchise Dispute Attorney Helped Recover Six Figures
A franchise dispute can place small business owners in extremely vulnerable positions, particularly when the franchisor fails to comply with mandatory disclosure obligations or uses affiliated vendors who deliver substandard work. In Washington DC, franchise relationships are governed both by federal rules under the FTC Franchise Rule and by contract law principles enforced by the DC courts. When a salon owner approached our franchise dispute team for representation, the financial and operational damage was already severe. The franchisor had ignored core disclosure duties, partnered with a contractor who failed to complete required buildout work, and left the owner unable to open for business. The franchise dispute escalated quickly, requiring aggressive legal strategy to unwind the relationship and recover losses. Throughout the matter, our firm emphasized statutory compliance, fraudulent inducement principles, and the franchisor’s breach of its contractual obligations. By approaching the case with a targeted franchise dispute strategy grounded in District of Columbia law, we helped the client terminate the agreement and recover every dollar invested.
Unlicensed Driving Fine Conditional Discharge Defense
This case study examines how a New York traffic defense attorney successfully minimized penalties for a client facing serious exposure after being caught driving without a valid license during an active conditional discharge period. The attorney’s strategic intervention resulted in a significantly reduced fine for unlicensed driving instead of harsher sentencing. This case demonstrates how unlicensed driving fine exposure can escalate when combined with a prior alcohol related conviction, and why early representation is essential under New York Vehicle and Traffic Law (VTL).
BAC 0.08% Defense Case : Second-Offense DWI
The following case study explains how our defense team successfully protected a New York resident from second-offense DWI consequences tied to a BAC 0.08% allegation. Because New York imposes strict penalties for repeat DWI conduct, including mandatory fines, potential jail time, probation, and license revocation, the client initially faced a high-risk situation. We built a comprehensive evidentiary strategy to demonstrate that the client was not operating the vehicle while intoxicated despite a recorded BAC 0.08% level. By reconstructing the timeline, examining statutory definitions of “operation,” and presenting corroborating witness statements, we obtained a favorable non-prosecution outcome.
