Oregon Franchising Laws<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In Oregon, franchisors operate within a non-registration framework. This means the state does not require franchisors to file or register their Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD<\/em>) with a state-level agency before they can begin to offer and sell franchises. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Translation<\/strong>: The primary regulation governing pre-sale disclosure comes from the Federal Trade Commission (FTC<\/em>) Franchise Rule. But, I always recommend hiring Oregon Franchise Attorneys<\/strong> if you want to franchise in the sate. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Oregon’s statutes<\/a>, specifically the Franchise Transactions Act, do address franchising. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

And while the state does not have a business opportunity law that necessitates a separate filing for exempt franchises, its franchise act does impose certain obligations. The law requires a franchisor to provide a prospective franchisee with the FDD at least 14 days prior to the signing of a contract or the exchange of any money. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Furthermore, franchisors are mandated to maintain a complete set of books and records related to their franchise sales.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For the continuing relationship between franchisor and franchisee, Oregon law provides a private right of action for franchisees who have a claim against their franchisor, particularly for misrepresentation or the omission of material facts<\/a>. This allows a franchisee to sue for damages and potentially recover attorney fees. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition, the law implies a duty of good faith and commercially reasonable conduct in the franchise relationship. Specific statutes address issues like termination, non-renewal, and the transfer of a franchise, providing a layer of protection for franchisees beyond the terms of the franchise agreement itself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here is a list of franchise lawyers you can hire in Oregon<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
