FAQs
What rights do Coral Springs franchise owners have in disputes with franchisors?
Franchise relationships are governed by the franchise agreement and Florida law, which provides some protections for franchisees. Disputes may involve territorial rights, supply requirements, or termination. The franchise agreement typically includes dispute resolution procedures that must be followed.
How do I enforce a service contract when the other party won't pay in Coral Springs?
Start by sending a formal demand letter outlining the amount owed and the contract terms. If payment isn't made, you can file a lawsuit in small claims court for amounts up to $8,000 or circuit court for larger amounts. If your contract includes an attorney fee provision, you may recover legal costs as well.
What should be in an operating agreement for a Coral Springs LLC?
A thorough operating agreement should address member contributions, profit and loss allocation, management authority, voting rights, dispute resolution procedures, and provisions for member departure or business dissolution. Without one, Florida's default LLC statute governs, which may not reflect your intentions.
Can I be held personally liable for my Coral Springs business debts?
Proper business entity formation generally shields personal assets from business debts. However, personal guarantees, commingling funds, fraud, or failure to maintain the entity can expose you to personal liability. An attorney can evaluate your exposure and recommend protective measures.
