Legal Question in Business Law in New Jersey

I entered a commercial cleaning franchise in 2008, in March 2009 the client I was assigned by the franchise decided to end services due to faulty workmanship. According to the contract franchise will provide training and support to the franchisee in order to keep clients, that service was not provided. In the contract it also states that the franchise will train franchisee if client ends contract for that reason and provided another contract once training is over, that also was not followed by the franchise, no retraining was given, no support and up to now no new contracts have been offered.

A franchise attorney will say you need to forward your franchise contract for review and analysis. For what you say, it sounds like the franchisor is in breach of the contract. A letter, written by a franchise attorney, may be all you need to get them moving. Consult with a franchise attorney for specifics.

As indicated above, I would need to review the contract between you and the franchisor to determine exactly what duties were owed. It does appear, based on what you stated in your question, that there was a breach of the duties. Please contact me atyour earliest convenience so that I may review the agreement and try to rectify the situation for you. My telephone number is 732-663-1500.
