What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Best Brains's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, franchisees may be required to cover Costs and Attorney Fees under specific circumstances. The FDD states that these fees, which will vary in amount, are payable if Best Brains substantially prevails in any litigation between the franchisee and Best Brains. These costs are incurred as they arise.
This means that if a Best Brains franchisee is involved in a legal dispute with the company and Best Brains wins the case to a significant degree, the franchisee may have to pay Best Brains's legal costs and attorney fees. This could potentially include expenses related to lawyers, court fees, and other associated costs.
It is important for prospective franchisees to understand this potential financial obligation, as legal battles can be expensive. Franchisees should carefully review the franchise agreement and consult with a legal professional to fully understand their rights and responsibilities in the event of a dispute with Best Brains.
