What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Brightstar Care's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, prior to opening your agency, Brightstar Care will review the proposed lease for your Agency Premises before you sign it. This review is conducted to ensure the lease meets Brightstar Care's standards for notice of assignment and other requirements detailed in the Operations Manual.
However, Brightstar Care does not offer or provide any other services related to lease negotiation or legal advice. It is the franchisee's responsibility to ensure the lease terms are favorable and compliant with local regulations, beyond the specific items Brightstar Care checks for its own operational requirements.
This assistance is part of the support Brightstar Care provides before the agency opens, as outlined in the Franchise Agreement and Operations Manual. Franchisees should carefully consider this limited review and seek independent legal counsel for a comprehensive assessment of the lease agreement.
