Does the All Team franchise agreement consider ATFC's approval a guarantee?

According to All Team's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the franchise agreement explicitly states that no action, approval, or consent by ATFC (All Team Franchise Corporation) should be considered a guarantee, warranty, or representation that the agency complies with any local, municipal, state, federal, or other laws or regulations. This means that even if All Team approves certain aspects of the franchisee's operations, it does not guarantee the franchisee's compliance with applicable laws.

This provision protects All Team from liability if a franchisee fails to comply with legal requirements. It is the franchisee's responsibility to ensure their All Team agency adheres to all relevant laws and regulations. This includes obtaining all necessary permits and licenses to operate the agency.

For a prospective All Team franchisee, this means they cannot rely on All Team's approvals as a guarantee of legal compliance. They must independently verify that their agency meets all legal requirements. This may involve consulting with legal and regulatory experts to ensure full compliance. This clause highlights the importance of due diligence on the franchisee's part to ensure they are operating legally and ethically.
