Anticipating those potential difficulties before they arise and finding ways to avoid them altogether are among the most important services that franchise counsel can provide. The 38th annual International Franchise Association ("IFA") Legal Symposium in May 2005 included two well-attended sessions that addressed the major issues that franchisors often face when trying to expand their systems.
