MANAGEMENT OF NATIONAL FRANCHISE LITIGATION

Jon Eisenberg managed the nationwide defense of a Fortune 100 food company’s litigation brought by franchisees challenging the company’s dual-distribution system through franchise stores and non-franchise retail outlets. The legal team obtained several favorable summary judgment rulings that led to dismissal or quick settlement of all remaining cases. The court rulings also vindicated the company's franchise agreement commercial terms, enabling the company to maintain and grow its business in the future.
