LITIGATION SUPPORT

LITIGATION SUPPORT & EXPERT WITNESS SERVICES FOR FRANCHISE RELATED LITIGATION

Contrary to popular belief, it is rare for a court case to be won by lawyers alone when dealing with the complex issues of franchising or licensing. The truth is that utilizing an expert witness can increase your chances of prevailing in cases involving adversary franchise relationships. While the reasons for this are broad, Mr. Kosnar has a proven track record for helping to win cases because of his experience, expertise and knowledge in the field of franchise operations and law.
