What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to All Team's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the timeframe to cure a default varies. In some instances, a franchisee has thirty days to correct a deficiency after receiving written notice. However, All Team may grant only ten days to remedy a default if permitted by applicable law.
All Team can terminate the franchise agreement immediately and without notice under specific conditions if state law permits. These conditions include conviction of a felony, fraudulent activity, abandonment of the franchise, bankruptcy or insolvency of the franchisee, termination of any other agreement between the franchisee and All Team, repeated failure to comply with the agreement (three or more times in a twelve-month period), or any other act that allows termination without notice under state law.
All Team may also terminate the agreement for nonpayment of sums due, failure to open the agency within four months, or failure to operate both the Permanent Placement Business and Temporary Service Business within four months after signing the agreement. Subject to applicable law, All Team will provide at least thirty days' prior written notice of termination, unless a longer or shorter period is required or permitted by state law, allowing the franchisee to correct any claimed deficiency within that period.
